Birthday Bonanza!

Well Kate is officially 4 now. Hard to believe it has been that long since that snowy Saturday when she arrived. She has certainly changed our whole world - in a wonderful way!

We had a few different celebrations for the big event. The day before her birthday she brought in cupcakes and a craft project to share with her friends at daycare.  We then picked her up early to take her to see the movie "Tangled".  She really enjoyed it except Mommy accidentally bought tickets to the 3D version and she was not a fan of the glasses!  Late that night (after Kate was already in bed) Uncle Josh flew in from Denver to join in on the festivities.  So he surprised her when she woke up the next morning on her actual birthday - which happened to fall on Thanksgiving day this year!  We all had some breakfast and then Kate opened her gifts from us, Grandma & Poppa Graham, and Josh. We played with all of the fun new things and then headed over to Grandma & Poppa Larsen's house to celebrate over turkey and other delicious food.  Kate opened more presents from Grandma & Poppa Larsen, Uncle Jeff and Uncle Kevin & Aunt Kari.  She received so many wonderful things!  We topped off the evening with a Disney Princess cake!


Two days later we had Kate's party with all of her friends at Kidz Bounce. It was two hours of pure bouncing fun! After the party we returned home to open all of the gifts from her friends. Yes, more presents! Can you believe Chistmas is less than a month away? Oh and she is already talking about her 5th birthday!  Here are some pics from all of the festivities:
