This year Ben went with a Star Wars cake, surprising us all, as we were expecting a superhero. (But I guess you could say that Luke has some pretty cool super powers... and he was a twin as well!)
Audrey's latest kick is butterfly's. So she went with a butterfly cake. That, I thought, I could handle. So I decided to take on Audrey's cake and leave the Star Wars cake to the "proffessionals." - though after seeing the handwriting on the cake, I had second thoughts :( Not matter - cake is cake and everyone enjoyed the day and the sweets.

We're 4!!!! |
Their birthday landed on a Sunday this year, so the home celebration was on their actual day. Disneyland was the next day. We got tickets for the Mickey's Halloween Party, where you dress up the kids, they have special spots where they hand out candy, have meet and greets with lots of characters, a cool parade and of course, the rides. Needless to say the kids had a blast. BTW - Disney doesn't spare anything on the candy - they were handing out shovel fulls of M&M's, snickers, milky way - not that sugar stick crap! :P
We ended up sticking around until 10:30 - not able to close the place down, but having plenty of good memories and leaving them wanting more. Which, given it's proximity, I would guess will be happening quite a bit in their lives!
Happy Birthday
Ben & Audrey!
