Four and a new baby bird...

 

We had Sara's party today with a few of her friends.  Who knew you could do so many things with a noodle?  I sure didn't.  These ideas came from the May issue of Family Fun magazine.  I changed it up a bit because I had younger kids but really, the possibilities are endless!  We tossed bean bags through these holes.  Big kids can toss javelines.

And look who hatched sometime this morning?  In between activities we checked on our newest little baby bird.

More active, outside fun...

Lemonade after all that running around.

Celebrating four.

Taking a break from the chaos that is a birthday party to capture ourselves.

Happy Birthday to our girl.

Because I wanted to see the date...

and the face of this girl to go with it.  She's FOUR today!  What a special girl she is and it is with great anticipation that she has been looking forward to this day.

Grandma and Grandpa are in town to celebrate wtih us.  Grandma's was yesterday so celebrating has been the name of the game.

And helping the kids with their knitting,

And reading bedtime stories,

And daytime stories,

and playing lots and lots of games.

My, this girl is growing up and changing fast.  Look at this face!  My goodness.

All are in bed now after a very busy day.  I know they had fun and I'm glad Sara got her wish; to spend her birthday with Grandma!
