Katy's 4th Birthday Party

We celebrated Katy's birthday early this year due to the proximity of her actual birthday to the due date of the twins.

This was the first year Katy was truly excited about her birthday, asked for a birthday party, and anxiously awaited the party's arrival.

Katy wrote an untold number of letters to her friends inviting them to her party during the weeks leading up to it.
Katy asked for a princess birthday party.  She also asked for a hot wheels race track and a car hauler for her birthday.  She's a very balanced little girl.

The day of the party finally arrived and Katy was so excited.  When she saw the first guests arrive out the front window, she jumped up and down in exclamation.  For the next three hours, she was busy jumping in the bouncy house, playing with her little friends, and finally her opening gifts.  I was preoccupied much of the time preparing food, readying the cake, etc, but every time I saw Katy she was smiling and rushing to get back to the fun.  The birthday excitement definitely overtook her natural timidness.

Happy early birthday sweet girl!

I made the princes cake topper as well as the strawberry and chocolate cake with strawberry frosting.

Homemade banana apple muffins and play-doh for all the kiddos.

The birthday princess ready to party!

Mom friends are pretty awesome.
