Brenna's 4th birthday

She turned 4 years old on Wednesday, but Brenna had her birthday party the weekend before. She had a Tinkerbell party. She is obsessed with anything Tinkerbell. She had such a fun party. She had a bunch of her friends over and they had a blast. They got to play on the trampoline and swingset for awhile while we waited for everyone to get here and then they played some games.



I made my own Tinkerbell Bingo game and they had to color the picture of Tink that matched the one I was holding up. Most of them decided to color all the pictures at once....I guess we have to wait awhile before they're ready for Bingo night. But they had fun doing it and once they got the hang of what to do they were so excited when they actually found the right picture.


After that game was done we played "Pin the Flower in Tinkerbell's hair." I bought a regular Tink poster and then told them to put the flower in Tink's hair, after I blindfolded them and spun them around a few times.


Then, finally, it was time for the cake. Brenna was so excited to finally be able to blow out her candles and have some cake. She got a little upset when the other kids decided to help blow out the candles so we had to relight them and let her do it. Jason was disappointed because he bought some trick candles that are supposed to not blow out but they blew out of course in one breath. That's what he gets for trying to be tricky.


While everyone was eating cake Brenna got to open her presents. I think she made out like a bandit this year. Her great-grandma McQuiddy got her a Hooked on Phonics game, which is great because Brenna loves to do stuff like learning her letters and drawing them and doing the sounds. She got TONS of Tinkerbell stuff like pens, paper, dolls, bracelet, and a Tinkerbell dress-up set (which she wears everyday). Plus she got of dress up accessories and coloring stuff. Everything she got she absolutely loves!!! Sometimes she'll get presents that I wonder what the people were thinking that got it for her but this year everything she got was wonderful!





For her actual birthday we got her a new bike. She has been wanting one for a while now but we have been waiting until she gets the basic idea of what to do with a bike. She was so excited because she got to pick it out. She now wants to ride it everyday. She is still getting the hang of how to stear but she's getting better.

I love that Jason bought your 4 year old trick candles for her cake. Hilarious. Sounds like she had an awesome day - what a good mommy you are to make it all happen for her!
