First, we had dinner with grandparents, cousins, aunts and an uncle. Grandpa Scott had volleyball practice and Uncle T had work, but all the other Idaho Falls relatives came.
Then, we had cupcakes.
Analee received a Disney Princess cupcake/cake recipe book years ago. Winnie had picked out her cupcakes from there months before her birthday. She was happy with how they turned out.

Then we came inside to unwrap presents.
Winnie had so many helpers that it was hard to get good unwrapping pictures.
A happy birthday girl with a plethora of presents. She received a princess phone from Miriam, a homemade comic book about Twilight Sparkle and Elmo from Analee, handmade bracelets from Rebekah, a Mega Bloks pirate ship and princess dress from Seth and me, a pink crocheted purse from Aunt Jessica, an Elsa doll from Aunt Rachel and Uncle Justin, an Ariel Barbie and clothes from Grandma Susan and Grandpa Dennis, a panda bear backpack from Grandma and Grandpa Scott, and a copy of Go, Dog. Go! and a stuffed dog from Grandpa Wirkus.
What do older sisters do when the little sisters and cousins are playing with birthday presents? Apparently they take refuge in the piano and read their books.
