Valentine Brithday

Today was my daughter's 4th birthday. I couldn't believe that she was that old and I began to wonder where the time went.  But all those years so far were great and I won't trade them for the world.  

Today was a small but lively party for my little Wonder-Girl.  I think that the adults and teenagers out numbered the kids.  We keep things simple for the party.  The kids played Candy Land, Memory, a fishing game and other simple kids games.  They really did spend hours playing, not really quietly, those games and for the most of the time without fighting with each others.  At some point in the party a sword fight battle broke out.  Not to sure who won.  But they all had fun and no one got hurt.

The theme, if you can call it a theme, of the party was centered around those tiny Valentine heart candies.  Why? I know you're asking this question...and the answer is this:  my daughter came running up to me and told me, "I want a PINK heart cake for my birthday."  A pink heart cake is what she got. 

Since it was a heart and at the time of her telling this I was looking at those tiny heart candies, figured that it was the best thing for her.  You see normally over the last 4 years I've tried to stay away from the Valentines theme for her birthday.  Mostly cause its so easy to find all those things around and I didn't want her to get sick of theme.  Also its hard to plan a party around that time of the year cause most people don't come.  Usually cause its Valentine's Weekend and the kid's parents are doing something for that day.  

But today was different.  We had a great time with friends and kids.  My daughter enjoyed all the presents from her friends and my our family and so did the other kids.  As you can see my Hulk baby went round the party with fairy wings for a while before Daddy realized that he was wearing them.  Someone, okay mainly me, put them on him.  But he was so cute and he thought he was a bird when I put them on him that I couldn't help myself.
