Annalise turns 4 tomorrow! I can't believe it. Tonight we celebrated with Nana and Papa by having a "Princess Feast" here at the house. We all dressed up in our finest wares (a suit for John, a Bridesmaid dress for me, nice pants for Justin and the normal finery for Mom and Mike) to eat dinner "castle style." Justin designed the evening plan after reading his Magic Treehouse book. Leah was here to be a princess with Annalise, Justin was the Prince, and they were in character all night long without missing a beat! Justin made several very grown up toasts such as "Happy Birthday to my sister" and "Cheers to having Leah here with us tonight!"
Annalise opened her presents and got Barbie Three Musketeers. We watched the movie together and had cake while John assembled the castle. Although I couldn't get any good pictures of it, his face was priceless...it's the one I'll remember when we're grandparents ourselves because it was clearly "grumble grumble...why, in this modern world, can they not put all the pieces together before they put them in the box?" He mentioned once or twice that maybe Grandad would be happier with the project.
