Aubri's Birthday was December 13th, on a Thursday. It was her day and she got to do fun things from breakfast to bedtime! The day before I was the parent helper at her school to celebrate. She got this birthday hat and wore it all day Wednesday and Thursday out & about.
Cookies for snack!
1st stop...breakfast at HyVee! Glazed donuts and bacon.
Then they got goodies from customer service before we left the store!
I love our local HyVee store.
Next stop on the agenda was lunch! Aubri got to choose and Hardees was the winner.
She loves the chicken strips here.
Our dear friend, Nita, joined us for the afternoon.
Explaining to Aubri a little bit about the gift she's about to open.
Love her facial expressions!
She likes what she's seeing!
Her own briefcase full of office supplies, calendar, calculator, etc.
She totes this everywhere with her!!
Next we went t Glazed Expressions to paint pottery. I have had my eye on this place for a long time, waiting for the perfect reason to go and today was the day!
Getting supplies.
Listening as she explains what to do!
The colors she chose.
Excited to get started.
Daddy got to join us for a little while too!
She chose a little trinket box with a lid and a light switch cover to paint!
Mommy painted too...I chose an olive oil bottle for the kitchen.
Our master pieces ready for the oven.
Afternoon dessert at DQ.
She loves the Dilly Bars!
Another big perk about living in the same town Daddy works in...he gets to join in on the fun!
Grandma & Grandpa watched Emili while we were away all day then stayed to celebrate with Aubri that evening. We had roast & potatoes for supper (per Aubri).
Ready to open her presents from Grandma & Grandpa.
Grandma & Emili
A variety of Spider Man things.
You'll never believe it!
Big Rapunzel doll!
Package from Arkansas.
She was determined to open the box herself...she even had to refer to her "briefcase" for a pair of scissors!
Still working...
Mosaic tiles art kit!
"Happy Birthday to you..."
Now...presents from Mommy & Daddy.
She finally crashed on the couch...hands full of her silverware and surrounded by her new toys!
It was a perfect day!!
We love you so much, Aubriana Grace!
