Happy Birthday Madeleine!

This is catch up week for the blog. Madeleine turned 3 on 4th of July. We celebrated a week before her birthday with a small party at Drace Park. Madeleine was very excited for her princess birthday party and had a great time. It was a classic 4th of July birthday party with lots of heat and humidity. Afterwards we went camping in our new pop up camper (that will be another post). Then on Friday before her birthday she brought crown cookies into school to celebrate with her friends there. There have been quite a few birthdays in her class and she had been eagerly anticipating her friends singing Happy Birthday to her. For her actual birthday, we celebrated at the Lake with Mike, Laurel, Michael and Jack. Laurel spruced up the party with some fun party favors. Jim added a surprise by buying trick candles accidently. She was getting a little concerned about why they weren't going out but Jack stepped in to blow them all out over and over again. All in all she had a great birthday and is very excited to be 3... although after finding out you have to be 4 to ride the go karts at the lake she was already talking about turning 4!
