The next party was on her actual birthday at Mimi's house. Here she celebrated with all of her friends at daycare. Mimi made her a special Disney princess cake (#2) and got lots of presents from her friends at daycare.
That night we celebrated by going to dinner with Gma at Steak-n-Shake. This is a tradition that we do. We always go to dinner here and then have cake at our house. This time Gma brought over a frog cake (#3) and we celebrated again! Today we also bought Mady her birthday presents which were tying shoes. She's been dying for them and has been saying all year, "when I turn four I get tying shoes". So, she ended up with cute pink Converse and Nike's.
The last party was the big celebration on Saturday with all of her friends. Mady wanted a cooking party so that's exactly what we had. The kids made pasta necklaces, pizzas, trail mix, decorated tiara cookies, made licorice and cereal bracelets, and wore chef hats and aprons.
In their goodie bags I used Publix green recyclable bags to store their cookie and trail mix, and then each child got a personalized apron with their name on it. I had pink aprons with lime green embroidery for the girls, and royal blue aprons with white embroidery for the boys. They turned out super cute!
Then it was time for cake! This year Mady had a tiara-shaped, cupcake pull-apart cake (#4). Of course, it featured her favorite three princesses: Belle, Cinderella, and Sleeping Beauty. The kids loved the cupcakes and it was so much easier than dealing with cutting a cake.
I think Mady loved her party(ies) and she received some very nice presents. She got a new vanity from Grandma and Pop Pop for her room and Gma took the whole family to see La Nouba over the weekend. Mady loved everything and can't wait to turn 5!
