Tumbles and toys party
On March 13th we decided to celebrate Hadley's 5th birthday at tumbles and toys. We did this for many reasons. 1. Brian has been away from home for work for 17 out of the last 40 days. So one party with family and friends made it easier on me. 2. A number of people could attend for various reasons due to it being on the March break. 3. Having it out of the house was so easy.
Hadley had a great time and with her face painted, I think she truly felt like a princess. There were princesses, little butterflies painted on faces, hearts, spiderman, and more.
We had snacks and cake and lots of good onversation. It went very smoothly and a few people even joined us for dinner at Pizza Hut after the party.
We decided not to open presents at the party so the kids could use the majority of the time for play. It was a good decision as the next day it took a few hours to open all of her gifts. She is so blessed with loving family and friends. She did say a number of times: "that is exactly what I wanted"!
Now I have just a few more days before I see my little girl turn 5!
I am excited to mark this day as I have so many fantastic memories to reflect upon from the last 5 years and I can't wait to see what the years ahead hold. I am so glad she is in our lives.
