The Rhea / Lane Families: Caden & Tootiebeth's 4th Birthday Party

I can hardly believe it! My precious Caden and Toots are 4 years old! Yesterday, just yesterday, they were curled up next to each other in their infant swing... so small that they both fit comfortably! Their 4th birthday party was Saturday and it was nothing if not SO MUCH FUN! We had an absolute blast! The best parties are the not-over-planned parties in my opinion! They had a few kiddie pools in the back yard, burgers & dogs, and lots of people that we just love to death. FUN TIMES!! Apparently, all you need for a good party is a big sack from a present and lots of party hats... more to come on that!

Liz and Caden are the best present openers I've ever met. I'm not sure how they learned it, but they make you feel FANTASTIC about your choice of gift! There were so many of these: 'OHHHH! It's exactly what I wanted!' 'You got the PERFECT one!' 'I LOVE it!!' and on and on! You can't help but giggle the whole way through present opening because these two little people are so genuinely grateful for their gifts! It is ADORABLE!

I have video's of the bday bash but I'll have to post them separately. You know they take forever to load! A big, humongous thank you to Booper and Mamy, my fellow stalkers, for sharing their great photos with me! I love you two and am thankful you also don't want to miss a thing! Find below, captured in photo, the twins bday party... 100 times over! Sorry there are so many photo's but I couldn't leave anything out!

Great picture!!

The twins adorable cake by Olexa's (click for website) in Birmingham. This one is half cars themed and half Mermaid! If you live in Bham, her cakes are always so creative and WONDERFUL! I crave them. To top it off, Diane Olexa is as sweet a person as they make!

My favorite picture... nice face Londie Lu! I want to reach out and grab that bottom lip! It's sticking out so far!! :)

Couldn't be more excited about her new princess outfit!

London saw this suitcase, walked straight over, grabbed it like it belong to her, and hightailed it from the party! Hilarious! She got ahold of what she wanted and vamped! We were all dying laughing at her lugging the suitcase (of all things) around the house!

Cutest picture ever! Oh and also the start of Party Hat fun! Apparently all you need for a good party is a couple of party hats! Everyone was rockin' them!
