Instead of a big party with lots of craziness involved, we let Girlie invite one friend to celebrate with. First, she helped me make her cake:
She chose exactly what she wanted which was a pink cake with sprinkles. And she did the sprinkles all on her own:
She had to wait for about forever before it was time to go, but FINALLY, it was time, so we took her and her friend to Build-A-Bear.
Girlie chose a pink kitty (big surprise) and named it Emily Cat. Her friend chose a pink princess bear and named it Princess Abby.
A quick stop at McDonalds where they promptly traded all their food with each other (Girlie gave away her nuggets for her friend's fries).
Then it was back home for some cake.
She made a wish, blew out the candles (with a little help), and we all ate cake.
And, of course, then came the best part of all. The presents!! Girlie knew about this one for over a month because it sat in the garage. As we carried it in, she ran and kissed it. "I LOVE my kitchen!"
Guess we did well. :)
Happy Birthday, Girlie!
What a nice, simple Birthday! Way to go Mom :) I think we all need to simplify a little. But way to go on the awesome presents!!
