We celebrated Grace's birthday today with a fun-filled party. She got to splash in the pool with a few of her friends, play in our newly completed backyard, and blow out six candles on her tropical themed cake! It was her first real "friend party" (we have let her invite one or two in the past, but this time she got to invite six of her closest buddies.) It was also special to have part of Aaron's family there to join in...they are always such a big help! Happy birthday my sweet Grace...I can't believe how big you are getting!
I spent a lot of time on this cake, but seeing the final result...it was all worth it! click on this picture for a full appreciation!
A few fun details!
This little guy ripped the hula dancer's leg off on his first swing!
Trampoline fun (We are so excited to finally have our yard completed!)
Grace's surprise present was a tether-ball court (Aaron arranged this one after observing Grace's recent fascination with the "sport.") She was thrilled to have her very own (She can't play with the one at recess, because "it always has big boys playing it!")
