Gracie's 4th Birthday Party was the best party ever. At least that is what she says anyway! We decided to have a pool party at Kim and Artie's house since it is always so hot on Gracie's birthday. Thanks again to Aunt Kim and Uncle Artie for letting us use the basement and pool. Gracie was so excited Madison and Katelyn were able to come have fun with her. We had some pizza and then it was time for swimming! There was lots of jumping, going underwater and giggling. Aunt Kim made sure to catch Gracie and Madison when they jumped in. Katelyn jumped in too, but she would only jump in to her Daddy. After lots of jumping and swimming, Gracie decided she was ready to open her presents and have some cake. She absolutely loved all of her presents. She got all of her favorite things...barbies, a purse, clothes, minnie mouse stuff, American girl doll accessories, and a bike! Yep, Mimi and Pop gave her a big girl bike! We also figured out that she doesn't like to be the center of attention. She kind of looked scared while she was opening her presents, but was everyone stopped looking at her, she was fine. She had the sweetest look on her face when we all sang Happy Birthday to her and then she enjoyed some cake!
Now time for the funny story. After everyone left the party Gracie wanted to ride her bike. It was a little hard to pedal inside the basement on the carpet so Mark put it outside. Well, she ended up loving it, but we all kept telling her to be careful and not fall into the pool. Well, guess what happened right after I put her pajamas on her. Yep, turned to sharp and her and her new bike went right in the pool! She stood up immediately crying "I didn't mean too" I think she thought she was going to be in trouble. She finally calmed down and put on some dry clothes and got back on her bike, except this time she rode inside the basement. Since we have been home, she has rode her bike inside the house and on the deck. She is getting faster and faster!
