We invited her whole class at school and ended up having about 32 kids show up! Needless to say it was a little crazy! I think from now on we are going to do smaller groups with only a few close friends! That was a bit much and expensive!
She got to do her birthday in 3 phases. At school she had her birthday celebration in her class. We made cookies for everyone the night before, Nathan and I both went, and they talk about all the things that she has done her short little life! It's actually very cute. They have this whole ceremony where they where the birthday crown, turn off the lights and turn on the battery operated candle, she takes the globe and walks around the "sun" (candle), and sing the earth goes round the sun, (which sounds like hi ho the dairy O), and she makes one pass for each year. It was really sweet since she even wanted the boys to come and be a part of it.
Phase two was shopping with Grandma and Great Grandma. Apparently the three of them love shopping together and had an awesome time. She got to pick out some gifts from great grandma - they were all leopard print - which for some reason is her thing right now. I don't get it since I really don't like animal prints
Phase 2.5 was dinner with great grandma, grandma and all of us. She got to pick the place. Which I for sure thought was going to be Red Robin (they have balloons, ice cream and they sing to you), but she picked Rockwell! And I love Melinda and Tiffany at Rockwell! They put a candle in the little cup of blue bell ice cream and the whole restaurant sang to her! It was great! I really appreciate that they really make an effort there to go above and beyond!
Phase three was her birthday party with her class at the local gymnastics place. She had a blast!
