Happy Birthday McKenzie

McKenzie's 4th Birthday was yesterday. She has been so excited! She found her presents in our room Sunday morning (we just put them on our dresser...so they weren't hidden) and I didn't think she was going to make it until the boys were ready for church (us girls were ready and the boys were still getting ready so we told her she had to wait til they were ready). Finally Scott was ready and she got to open them up! She played for a little while and then we had to head off to my parents church because my little brother was being ordained an Elder and receiving the Melchizedek Priesthood. After church, we went to my parents house and had a little lunch and birthday celebrations so some of my family that had to leave to get home before our party that night could still participate in some celebrations! After that, we went home and let McKenzie try her new bike and helmet. She did AWESOME!!! She has had a big wheel type bike and has long since mastered that.....and she did great on a two wheeler!! She took right off cruising all over the neighborhood! Later that night family came over and we had a fun night celebrating. She got spoiled....as always...but I guess we can return the favor when there are other neices and nephews to spoil! She got some Wall-E toys (she is way into Wall-E), lots of fun books, clothes, a backpack, candy, dolls.....you name it. I made her a princess cake and she was so funny about it. She was VERY particular about how she wanted it. She watched me decorate it, told me where to put the white dots, then afterwards, she kept "checking on it" in the fridge to make sure it was still good. She liked it, so I was happy! Happy Birthday McKenzie! We love you!
