Did you know that when you turn 5 you get to have 3, yes, I said it, 3 birthday celebrations? Maddie's first celebration was curtesy of my mom. Maddie's birthday fell on a Tuesday this year and since my mom is always here on Monday's she wanted to throw Maddie an early birthday party. While we were at Ballet, she and Taylor decorated our kitchen and Maddie's bedroom and made Maddie's (one of them) meal- chicken wings, fettucine noodles and green beans with bacon. When they saw the two of us arriving home from Ballet, they turned off all the lights and when Maddie walked in the door they yelled surprise! It was the cutest thing! Cute because Taylor was so excited about what she had done for her sister and cute because Maddie could hardly contain her excitement! It was a special evening. Thanks Grandma Kathy and Taylor!
Here is the banner that Taylor and my mom made for Maddie. I know it's hard to see. If you click on the picture it will enlarge for you :)
Taylor worked really hard to decorate the kitchen for Maddie's big day!
The very happy birthday girl!
The party guests (minus the photographer!)
Taylor insisted on decorating the door to Maddie's bedroom as well! Her friend Molly's family does this and she really wanted to do it as well. I think we've got a new tradition started.
