4 Years on

Where the last 4 years have gone I'm not too sure and we celebrated in real style. The morning started with Olivia's favorite cinnamon muffins. We then opened presents and spent the rest of the day hanging out. She was so excited about all of her presents and wanted me to tell her exactly what all of her birthday cards said. She was thrilled to announce to Thomas that she is finally 4 (although she has thought this for a few weeks now ever since the preschool celebration). She enjoyed running around the house with her new camera taking pictures of everything. The batteries didn't manage to last all that long though so I think that we'll be looking into rechargeables. I felt a little bad that we didn't really do a whole lot until Spense came home, but everyone seemed happy enough and Ryan also came over to play and that always makes Olivia happy since those boys are so nice and accomodating toward her.



After Spense got home from work we had dinner. I asked Olivia is she wanted to go out to eat, but she preferred to stay at home. I was just hoping for easy clean up! We then had cake. If her face looks a little scared below its because she has recently become scared of fire. Thomas really had to help her out with the blowing out of candles since she wouldn't get close enough to get the job done.

After cake we headed out to Chuck E Cheese. My kids always love to go there for some reason!
Thomas managed to lose his cup with $10 worth of tokens in there in the first few minutes when he put it down and left for a while. I was so mad especially since someone else just took our camcorder and kept going and around and looking in everyone's cups to see how much they had in there! We got him a few more tokens and had a good time. Before we went home we drove to Coldstone to see if they were still open for ice cream, but it was too late so the McDonald's drive in had to do! We love you dearly Olivia. You are such a great little girl and can't wait for your baking party.

Olivia always loves to ride the pony
