Audrey's 6th Birthday

Our baby girl is six. She is such a sweet girl, such a great helper, and her little brothers are so lucky to have her. And I am so lucky to her as my sweet girl.

On the morning of Audrey's big day, we went to the movies and saw Tales of Despereaux.
 

She had been begging to get her ears pierced and when I told her in the car that Dave and I decided she could, she started to cry she was so excited.
 
But before the piercing, we went to the pool with friends for swimming and popsicles. (Tatum and Abby were out of town, and Chloe just got her tonsils out)

 
For her birthday dinner, Audrey chose Outback.  She loves the baked potato soup, and I love the steak so it was a win win situation. After dinner it was time to get her ears pierced!
Before:
 
Deciding what earring to put in:
 
Joshua being the noble brother that he is, and holding her hand while the piercing lady was getting ready:
 
After.  Only a few tears from the birthday girl.  They had to do one ear at a time and Audrey was very nervous about that part.  She pulled through and now has sparkly ears!
 
The whole process took over an hour and Joshua himself and Austin entertained.
 
Then it was home for presents and cake.  It was a great day celebrating our Audrey! Happy birthday sweet girl!
 

 
It was too hot to bake a cake.  Thanks Tom Thumb for doing it for me.
