Birthday

Four years old and counting! Lizzie had her birthday last week and what a "BERRY BERRY good time she had. We had a strawberry shortcake themed party and I couldn't think of a better way to celebrate this "Berry" happy girl. We are so grateful for Lizzie and we are oh so grateful she was our introduction child into parenthood. Lizzie is full of love and friendship and I'm just amazed at how concerned she is with other people and making sure that they feel loved. We had lots of fun with all of Lizzie's friends and somehow I forgot to take pictures of all her friends as they played strawberry shortcake games like: Strawberry Strawberry Shortcake (played just like duck, duck, goose), Rotten fruit (this game was adapted from her party last year were the kids just smash balloons) and then they picked fruit from the field ( i scattered starbursts and suckers all over the lawn and gave them bags to harvest the "fruit" in). We had strawberry cupcakes with strawberry frosting all though next year i think i 'm going to skip the whole cake part and get cans of frosting and then give them each a spoon . Anyhow it was berry berry fun. I was way excited about the decorations we blew up (when i say we i mean jeremy) red balloons and put black dots on them and then tied them with green balloons to look like strawberries. It was Berry festive. It was a fun celebration and Lizzie is already planning her 5th birthday party. Anyhow We love you Lizzie and are so grateful for your example to us as your parents and we are so proud of the good choices you are making so far in your short four years, you seem to have a way to touch many peoples hearts in the best way possible. Happy Birthday Lizzie!
No I wouldn't say she's present happy but you know who wouldn't get excited?
