The Best 4th Birthday Ever!
Monday was Lily’s birthday. She is now 4 years old and according to her is all grown up and can do everything herself. The birthday party over the weekend was as perfect as was her special day. She chose the party venue (an indoor carnival, theme park type place), the flavors of the cupcakes she took to school yesterday (strawberry with chocolate frosting and chocolate with strawberry frosting - both with lots of sprinkles) and even helped design her 2 special new birthday outfits by helping choose the fabrics, trims and styles.
To her birthday party, Lily wore her special liliputians birthday outfit, Cupcake Dots & Ice Cream Ruffles (she dictated the pink and brown color combo and requested ruffles), a pair of matching birthday barrettes (something no birthday girl should be without), her new necklace (just like mamas) and a BIG smile. Lily had the time of her life (as did her daddy and I watching her). There were bumper cars, a ball pit, a roller coaster and other kiddie rides, an arcade with generous tickets being spit from the games, and 12 of her classmates and friends from school and dance class. She’s right . . . it was the best day ever!
Lily wore another special new outfit, Birthday Cakes & Princess Stripes, to school on her birthday on Monday. In keeping with the princess theme, she even had a special Pink Cupcake Crown (made exclusively for liliputians by Cakies). She had liked the pants set from the princessy fabric and requested a skirt made from it. I was glad to accommodate as well as accompany the birthday girl to class with my trusty cupcake carrier filled to the brim with freshly baked treats. My only regret is having baked too many cupcakes so many were left over at home to taunt me and test my willpower!
