Let The Celebrations Begin!

Can you really start celebrating a birthday too early??!!  We don't think so - so the celebrations began this weekend:)  Kailie had a few friends over and under the tropical storm warnings we had a fantastic 'Hello Kitty' party!  It actually turned out to be beautiful out with only a little shower very early in the morning, but despite the calm conditions the threat of a storm was enough to have our bouncy castle cancelled (Mommy & Daddy were pretty devastated!) but Kailie didn't skip a beat and had a great time!

We had a brunch party so the kids came first thing in the morning and everyone was in a great party mood and we had a great time.  When we asked Kailie what her favorite part of her day was she said, "when everyone sang Happy Birthday"!  It was a very sweet moment as you could just see how much she was loving it, and then she jumped in with her part of "I'm 4 Years Old" and did amazing!!  Here is a link to the video (thanks Brian!) . . .

There is still a lot of excitement around the upcoming "school-party" that will wait until her actual birthday when we'll bring the celebrations to her class:)

Here are the pic's of all the fun we had.


I thought this year the cake would be pretty simple - however both the actual cake and icing each took two tries this year!!  Anyway - it came together in the end, one day maybe I'll save myself days of stressing and just buy a cake!!!


The newest member of the family - bigger than life Hello Kitty!!!  Kailie was super thrilled when she showed up at the door:)

Birthday Pressies!  Hello Kitty Umbrella was a huge hit and has already been used for rain and sun:)

Nap Time after all that excitement!!
