Iris Turns 4 - Part I

Yesterday our little Iris turned 4 WHOLE YEARS OLD. She humbly requested a Princess Party and we extravagantly obliged. This was the largest kid party from a guest perspective that we've ever hosted and it was fun, but exhausting (for the grown-ups in attendance). We've not seen Iris as happy, though, as she was surrounded by friends, food, and especially presents. All the guests were incredibly generous and Iris received just about every Princess item available on the open market.

Here are some of the party highlights in photos, starting with the day before. .
