Donuts + Jammies = Carly's Birthday!

December 19th....probably one of our busiest days in December. Not only is it the day Carly Anne was born, but it is also the same day Parker was born. In addition to helping them celebrate their birthdays in two separte cities, the girls also had flu shots this morning.

Our day began with flu shots at nine o'clock then it was off to the Leonard house for a special 4th Birthday for Carly. This party was right up her alley...it was a Donut Party!

It was a ton of fun....there was a delicious donut bar with a ton of different donut choices, fruit, juice, milk, coffee, hot chocolate...the works! And as a bonus, the guests came dressed in jammies!

Miss Jodi made Carly a precious donut cake with 4 candles on top. We sang and Carly blew out all of her candles. As a fun craft activity, the kids used their artisitc skills to decorate a chef hat. Landry was ALL over this one...I mean there markers so she was in heaven!

Carly's sweet smile lit up each picture...she loved having her friends there, she loved eating her donuts and opening her presents. She had a great day! The funniest part was that to her, she wasn't actually 4 until everyone sang to her. I love that mind of hers and all of it's cuteness!

Bobby was the camera guy since I was wrangling a toddler....check out the pics he took:
waiting ever so patiently for the donut cake
look at that cutey face....






I just love how much Carly's face lit up as she opened her presents. It was so great to watch!

Grayson is so fantastic with the babies and they love him...and Carly's cousin William was no exception.

Miss Jodi did such a fantastic job planning this party down to the very last detail. I wish I had gotten a picture of Carly in her super cute "4" jammies....they were precious! We enjoyed celebrating with her so much!
Happy 4th Birthday Carly Anne!
