It's been a day of celebration! AbbyGrace turned 4 years old today! We've been talking about this day for weeks - "AbbyGrace, do you know you're going to have a birthday? How old will you be when you have a birthday? Do you know how many fingers that is?" You get the idea. She's been very excited about this day! We had planned for several weeks to celebrate her birthday as a family at Splash Kingdom - a family water park that is about an hours drive from our home. We've been concerned that we weren't going to be able to follow through with this plan because we have had so much rain in the last month. However, the rain has moved out of the area, and we were able to enjoy a great relaxing, fun filled day together as a family. We all had a great time together. When we returned home, we enjoyed birthday cake and ice cream. AbbyGrace seemed to be overwhelmed that the ginormous box on the table that happened to be wrapped in Cinderella wrapping paper, just so happened to be a gift for her! When we asked if she wanted to open her gifts, she covered her mouth and gasped, and said "oh, this is for AbbyGrace?" Why, yes. Yes, it is! She loves her Cinderella Castle playset, and is currently coloring in all of her new coloring books that her brother got her for her birthday. She also received birthday cards from Grandma & Grandpa, Nana & Papa and Majors Johnson. The gifts contained in each of these cards will allow AbbyGrace to purchase her very first camera of her own. We will head to Toys 'R' Us tomorrow to purchase the pink Fisher Price camera just for her.
Unfortunatley, my camera battery died just as she finished opening her gifts, so I can't post pics until it has charged back up. I'll try to post soon.
