Princess!! (Birthday Party #3)

We had a nice little quiet birthday party for the Great-Grandmas to see Ashley enjoy cake and presents.  Grandma Carol wanted to do princess cakes, so she and I teamed up and created 5 of them -- 4 little ones (jumbo cupcake size) and 1 big one.  They turned out SOOO cute!!!
The birthday table, complete with little princess figurine toys....that Danielle got to take home!!
The four smaller princess cakes -- even though it was Ashley's party, Danielle got to pick who got which colors.  I think it went green to G-G'ma Darlene, yellow to G-G'ma Rachel, pink to Danielle, and purple to Mommy.  Everyone else got a slice from the big cake!
The big cake!  We had fun decorating.....and I had to get creative with the bodice of her dress as I forgot to save enough pink frosting!  All things considered, I think we did good.  (and SO many memories came flooding back of all the princess cakes that Grandma Darlene used to make for me!)
Grandma Carol got a cute little headband for Ashley to wear.  She was kind enough to let us snap a few pictures of her wearing it, and then she was done -- we'll have to try again soon to see if she'll leave it on for more than 2 minutes!
Grandpa with the girls!!!
Opening presents....with big sister's help!
....and just like her big sister, Ashley LOVES the cards!  Too cute!!
