Kite Flying Birthday!

To celebrate Luna turning 4 she decided to have a kite flying birthday party.  We all gathered at Zuanich Park on an amazing Bellingham Saturday afternoon.  All the kiddos got kites (although we made the parents assemble them....sorry!) and ran around the park trying to get them aloft.  In all 19 kiddos showed up to help Luna celebrate!  We had a GREAT time and thank all of you that came out to fly kits.
Luna's friend Maya was one of the first to get her kite up

After blowing out her candle, Luna leaned in and licked off a big piece of frosting.  Awesome.

Happy Birthday Luna!

Believe it or not Luna has turned 4!  Seriously?!  I can't believe we have had 4 fabulous years with this spunky, funny, silly, happy, dancing, singing girl (and been "blogging" about it more or less that entire time).  Brian & I woke Luna up to a rousing rendition of Happy Birthday then popped in her new Casper Babypants CD (Luna is a HUGE fan).  We got the girls dressed then headed down to Rocket Donuts for breakfast.  After school we hopped on our bikes and headed downtown for birthday dinner at La Fiamma with Grammy & Oma.  What a great day to celebrate our big girl!  Happy Birthday my Moon Girl!

So many choices!

Fashionista

Gracie found the new Prana catalog that came in the mail today.  I assumed she would just start tearing it up,  but instead she sat down at the picnic table and started flipping through the pages pointing out different items.  Girls got some good taste, I guess!

I like that one!
