A birthday is a big deal when you're 4, KP has been thinking about and anticipating this day for MONTHS!! What a day it was. Her actual birthday was spent going to pre-school. She and Mom made special blueberry muffins for the snack at school. They stuck a candle in one and sang to her. We brought BL for "show and tell" to her class because they were doing a unit on spring and how babies are born in the spring and are just miniature big things. It was great! Then when she got home, she was just so excited about her presents and all the energy was a bit much for the rest of the household and their napping (what a day!). One of our favorite neighbors brought a special gift of a bubble wand that makes great big bubbles, and then she stayed for a bit to help KP & Chubbs play with it. It was GREAT!!
For dinner the menu was pizza, red jello with fruit cocktail, and for dessert white cupcakes with pink frosting! YUM. We did go to Dad's softball game that night and then we came home to open presents.
Grandpa Artist came over for the festivities, dinner, softball game (park time) and dessert and presents!
Even BL got in on the celebratory action!!
Birthday Playdate!
Then the next day KP didn't have a party so to speak, I let her have a special play date with 2 friends of her choosing, so SL & BF came over. We made and decorated party hats, then we got out our instruments and went on a parade down the street to see our favorite neighbor who has 2 big dogs!
Then we came home and played with Elefun and went outside and played with bubbles and ran around. Then they were just content to play on their own. Thankfully BL slept through all of it so I could focus on the group activities. Lunch was Macaroni and Cheese, string cheese, grapes and of course cupcakes! It was a great day!! Birthday parties can be such a stressful thing, and this was absolutely perfect!
