Natalie is turning 6 this coming Sunday. We started the celebrations off today with a small party with a few of her friends at our neighborhood pool. When I went out to the bus stop to get the girls just an hour before the party the clouds were looming dark, but thankfully they held off until 25 minutes before the party was to end when I saw some lightning – and the kids were able to have fun playing in the pool together.
One of Natalie’s requests was that she get to make the cupcakes for her friends.
Once her friends got there it was time to have fun!
We took a quick break from the pool fun to open presents.
And also to have cupcakes. (This expression is SO Natalie.)
And the best part is that she still has 3 more days of celebration.
1. at school
2. at Disney (her choice: Hollywood Studios)
3. at home on her actual birthday

So fun! Birthdays that involve several days of celebration are the best! Happy Birthday Natalie 🙂
