Rachel's Grand Parent's Birthday Party

Last night Grammy, Grandpa, Grandma, and Grandpa all came over to celebrate Rachel's sixth birthday.  According to Rachel, it took way to long to get to the present opening part.  The gifts from both sets of grand parents were hits.  But the real hit of the night (I thought) was the awesome birthday cake that Rebekah made for Rachel.

Please note that we got good smiles from Rachel in all of these pictures. Apparently the trick to get her to smile is to give her gifts and chocolate cake.

This is a chocolate princess castle cake with four turrets, two levels, and a peanut butter cream filling. It looked amazing!

Look! Rachel is smiling for a picture with her very cool cake!

Rachel got a very cool comforter and sheet set from Grandma and Grandpa Short. Here she is in front of the comforter.

Grammy and Grandpa got her a Lego Elves play set.  She has already built the dragon and has been working on building the castle.  Joel has played with the dragon for at least an hour already...  He may need his own dragon for Christmas.

Anna wanted her picture up here too.  It's hard to capture the essence of Anna right now since she squirms so much, but sometimes she looks awake and content at the same time.
