Let's Party!

I was starting to feel guilty when Roman and Capri's birthday was drawing near and I didn't have a princess party set up for Capri or a superhero party set up for Roman. They deserve a fabulous party full of their favorite things. So, I decided to do my best and made up these invitations for them...

The word was out, the kids were beyond excited (they asked multiple times a day if it was their birthday for the week prior), and so we headed to Grammy's for the twin's 4 year birthday bash.

We were so lucky to have so much of our family there to help celebrate. Tucker's brother Tyler and his family was in town again this year which was extra special. Tanner and Drew and all of my family were able to attend as well so the kids had lots of loved ones!

Here are pictures of some of those so willing to make this a great day:

Of course their baby sister Karoline was happy to come!
The Nielson boys, Tyler, Tucker and Tanner-loved that we had an excuse for them to get together.

My sister-in-law Jesse (who took most of these pictures, thank you!) and Grandma:Aunt Cheri, Uncle Robert and baby London:Grampy and Eli...I am pretty sure he was having a good time!Opening presents was a hit for everyone. All the cousins were so excited to see what Roman and Capri opened each time. Capri received this beautiful doll, complete with a pram stroller and cradle. To. Die. For.Ava and Lily were as sweet as ever and couldn't wait to give them their presents. These girls are definitely cousins!This is Roman with the favorite toy of the day, and Tucker totally gets credit for finding it. Everyone loved playing with this thing!Karoline also had a favorite present, the balloons. She got pretty excited about them...Jesse was an angel and offered to make each of the twins a cake. The boys helped and I think they did a fabulous job. Both of the kids still talk about their cakes whenever we bring up their birthday!

Roman got his Batman cake:

And Capri with her princess cake:

All of that worry about themed birthday parties went out the window when I realized what is most important to having a great birthday, having all of your favorite people to celebrate it with! Roman and Capri could not have been happier as they played and played with their cousins, grandparents, and aunts and uncles that love them to death. With all of the fun, however, I didn't catch a picture of our family. Next year!
