Happy. Crazy. Fun.

I chose (well, B begged and I agreed) to have B's 4th birthday party at a local indoor jungle gym because I thought it would be less crazy than having it at home. You know--no cleaning beforehand, no clean-up, and you just have to bring the cake.

Turns out, a dozen preschoolers running around like little hooligans make for one crazy party--no matter where you are! We were SO wiped out afterward. But everyone had a blast. I'm so glad we did it.

Bianca was so excited for her party for weeks. The day of, she was so excited I thought she would burst. Steve commented that it's a good thing the party started at 11 am. She probably would have imploded from anticipation if she'd had to wait until the afternoon.

Picture of a happy girl!

Blowing out her candles.

The cupcakes--the Hello Kitty decorations were rings for the kids to wear.

In the jungle gym with her pal.

Baby races! Mia had a pal there too.

It was a wild little whirlwind of a day. And I can't believe we have a 4 year old! She's an amazing little ball of energy and she just gets more fun, and more interesting. Here's to another great year, Nonni! We love you!
