Cassidy is 4....how can that be possible! She is a wonderful little girl who surprises me every day with what she is capable of doing, her intelligence and creativity and her thoughtfulness. She has had a great birthday with 2 parties, the first one was up north that she got to share with Lindsay and Alexa. Cassidy thought it was pretty special to have the same party as her big cousins...and she loved the dollhouse she got along with the Elefun butterfly game and a new soccer ball!

Grandma Margie came up for a visit and helped get ready for her friend party...a pj and butterfly party. 10 4 year olds from pre-school and friends from A-town. My only thought was "It's only an hour and a half, we can do this!" It did turn out really well and everyone had fun and it was nice for me to be able to put some faces to names.

MacKenzie stopped by to give Cassidy her gift before the party...her first pet that's all hers! She named it Fish....
The party....
playing Duck Duck Goose...4 year old style (in other words, chase!) and playing the butterfly game
I thought it would be a good idea to have some structure and a quiet activity...I found some great butterfly masks for the kids to decorate and it was a big hit
and so was the cake!
It was a great party and lots of fun and...I survived (with a new appreciation for Cassidy's pre-school teacher) But well worth the effort to see Cassidy's face light up each time a new friend arrived and to watch her play hostess and play. She is definitely a very special little girl...we are very lucky to be her parents! We love you Cassidy Rae
