party... fun...

We had a fantastic weekend as a family… Unfortunately the rain didn’t permit T to golf on Sat so he ended up coming home to hang with me and K. We headed to Valley Fair (where do you take K on a rainy day) and let her run around and play in the play area. We also let her get a bday whipped cream and sang her happy bday. She loved loved it! It also gave her the rest she needed for her party.

The party was a ton of fun. We had a small group of friends and family over (14 or so) to celebrate. We went with a Greek menu (really fun to try to make a new cuisine – we love Mediterranean food, made a cake with a whipped cream frosting and made some more K friendly foods like cantaloupe and macaroni and cheese. She loved opening her presents, trying on her clothes, playing with her toys, new train and visiting with some of her favorite people… Unfortunately she had a minor cold and so yesterday we bummed around the house to try and get her better. The only bummer was that the PB kids rocking horse I tried to buy was on backorder and so we couldn’t get any really big horse presents (she got two stuffed horses from SR, which she loved and a horse calendar from pmogi), however she determined that she didn’t have enough horse presents and so she kept looking in the boxes – no horse presents? She only kept her party dress on for a few minutes, but insisted on wearing her pajamas to the party. She had a great time and now is waiting for Santa to come.
