The Birthday PARTY

Although a little taken back at first, after a couple bounces Katie was "high" on birthday!  Absolutely thrilled that 23 children, their parents and our family came to celebrate her special day.  She ran and ran and ran and jumped and jumped and jumped until she was absolutely exhausted, but still wanted to go back for more.

As with every year I look at these pictures and am so thankful for what we have, for such an amazing family, for such a great daycare filled with these wonderful kids and a neighborhood that is equally as awesome.

There isn't a doubt in my mind that my kids are so happy because they're so well loved by all.

Complete proof - look at that smile!

That's a whole lot of people!

Time to sing . .

and blow!

When it was all done, Katie was able to go into a booth and collect tickets (for a prize).  True to form, she didn't want to go in, but I made her knowing she would enjoy it . .

and she absolutely did.

Family

Seriously?  Look at that loot!

She did laps and laps with the balloons to burn the sugar off!

Before bed that evening, I asked you if you had a good birthday party?   You automatically said "yes," but then thought about it for a moment . .gave me a gigantic smile and said "yes I did" - absolutely priceless!
