Carolyne is 4 Years Old!!

Two weeks ago Carolyne celebrated her fourth birthday. She was so excited... she has been eagerly anticipating her birthday for months. On March 22nd, we started her birthday celebrations with a party at our house for our families. She was so excited to have her grandparents, aunts, uncle, and cousins join her for lunch, cake, ice cream, and presents. She had a blast! We ended the party with a wiffle ball game in the back yard... I am pretty sure that was her favorite part.

The following Tuesday, she celebrated her birthday at preschool with her class friends. She picked out Polly Pocket cupcakes to take to school. She loved sharing the cupcakes with her friends... although the bright green and pink icing left her teachers with quite a mess. She was one of the last ones in her class to turn four, so she was so happy to finally reach this milestone.

Last, but not least, she celebrated her birthday with all of her little friends on March 28th at My Gym. Carolyne has been taking classes at My Gym since she was 2, so it was no surprise that she wanted to share this experience with all of her friends. The party started with free play time while music by Hannah Montana played in the background. Carolyne LOVED the music... as you all know, she loves any music from Hannah Montana and High School Musical! Then the kids played lots of fun games including dodge ball and freeze dance and took a ride on the zip line. Then, as a surprise to all of the kids and adults, Carolyne came riding out on a motorcycle bike covered in pink feather boas and wearing a crown to the tune of "Girls Just Wanna Have Fun". It was priceless. All of the kids enjoyed cupcakes and then a little more playtime including a swing on the hot dog, before we ended with a puppet show and a game of pop the bubbles. Everyone had so much fun! Carolyne has been asking every day when she gets to have another birthday party at My Gym. It was a great way to end her week of birthday celebrations!
