 Katrina and Anna join in the festivities. 

 Amelia is excited about her doll.

Little John is mostly interested in the Matchbox cars that were given to the girls from their older brothers.  

The big box was especially intriguing to James.  The birthday girls loved it for the Dora and Sophia wrapping paper.  James and Grant put the doll house together after the little ones were in bed and were very excited to show them all of the features the next morning.

The big kids--James, Grant, Talisa, and Kira made the party very fun for the little ones.

Lillian thought the bow made a great hat.

Aunt Lillis with Charlotte. 

The little ones always awoke early in the morning.
