You've had a birthday, shout "Hooray"

Madie turned 4 last Tuesday!!! I still can't believe it! We started the day out by going to art class with Katie, then Zach & I took her to lunch at Wendy's. After that we had some visiting teaching to do and then we came home and went swimming. Finally, dinnertime rolled around and her cousins came over to party. When asked what she wanted for dinner, Madie responded with "waffles." So the kids all played and we had waffles (with pink whipped cream), hash browns, bacon & eggs for dinner. 
Madie (in her new birthday dress) waiting patiently to open her presents. 
 Grandma & Grandpa with baby Samuel (they didn't know I was taking the picture). That's a unicorn costume Abigail is wearing...I'm still not sure how she didn't get heat stroke in it!
 Some of the kids were kind of bored during the opening of presents...
 Madie opening the Belle nightgown she got from the Tolmans. To say she LOVED it would be an understatement!!!! She wore it to bed Tuesday night and then tried to convince me to let her wear it all day Wednesday as clothes. I think tonight is the first night she hasn't worn it to bed since she got it.
 Molly opening her birthday present from Auntie Lori & Uncle Justin. At first Kristi had Molly's present off to the side and Molly kept trying to open all of Madie's presents. Finally, they put her gift over in the pile with Madie's and then she would open it.
 The pink princess castle cake that Madie helped me make.

 Happy birthday little big girl!

Oh, and the title of the post is the song Madie requested we sing to her in Primary last week.

  1. She looks so grown up and mature in that first picture! Looks like she had a great birthday, and that cake turned out great! What a fun time, I wish we could have been there.
