Genna's 4th birthday party

Today, we had a birthday party for Genna and another friend in her class, Hagen! Originally, it was supposed to be at the park, but since it rained all day and was about 50 degrees, we had to move it to our house in the basement. I was a little worried about how it would go, but the kids were just excited to be playing together!

This is the birthday girl and boy! They are such great friends!

Before the party, Genna, Mary Frances, Hagen, Charlie, and Andrew (trying to eat a balloon, of course) played with all of the balloons.



This was the party-saver...my great friend, Kaci let us borrow this bouncy castle to use. Luckily, it was small enough to fit inside. It was absolutely perfect for the kids!

We also made bead bracelets and decorated easter eggs and other spring shapes with stickers.


More crafting fun...





Taking a break from jumping...they were so thirsty!


Daddy and the birthday girl!


Genna gets very nervous around candles, but she did so good!


She was glad to finally blow it out.


Memama did a great job cutting the cake for a lot of hungry 3 and 4-year-olds.


Yes, Genna is swiping her finger down the side of the icing....


...and licking her finger...




We also played a few games...



All in all, I think it was a successful party thanks to a lot of people helping to make it happen.

More to come on Genna and Grandaddy's birthday celebration from Saturday night!

She is such a cute 4 year old!! Isn't it crazy how fast they get there? And I love the finger swipe. It's her party, she can swipe if she wants to. :)
