Wow, is Mallorie really 4 already?! It's true...Joe and I really are that much closer to 30...which by the way is getting younger everyday. So anyway, enough about us, Mallorie's party went pretty well, I thought. We did have a house burn down right around the corner during the party. Joe had to block the road until another Highway Patrol got there. The people were cooking fries and it turned into a grease fire. Within minutes the house was burnt beyond repair. The people were renting, but all of their stuff is gone....they have four children, and only the clothes on their backs (one is a baby and only had on a daiper). I'm just thankful they all got out in time.
Here are some pictures:
The Dora pinata that I made for Mal.

Happy Birthday to Mallorie!
Happy Birthday to you!
Mallorie wanting to play with everything right away.
The party favors at the end were a hit...water guns!
Reload!
And the fun continues!
When we got home, Uncle Dusty, Laiel, and Joe put together the mini market from her papa and grandma. Mallorie kept paying papa for the food he wanted to buy. Charity in action:P
The house that caught on fire during the party. So sad! Everyone did get out okay, though.
