Daddy's Birthday

Birthdays are very exciting time in our house. Whenever we have one birthday celebration, Mary Ellen immediately asks who is next. She has been talking about Daddy's birthday for two weeks. Every morning, she would ask if it was daddy's birthday party. Paul's birthday isn't until the 18th, but we celebrated last night, and it made Mary Ellen's day to know that it was time for Daddy's birthday party! She helped with preparations and was geared up to go to it all day long. I think that everyone had a great time, including the birthday boy, but especially Mary Ellen! It doesn't matter that it isn't her party, because she has fun and turns it into her party!

Mary Ellen helped make daddy's birthday cake.


Posing with Daddy as we celebrate his birthday!


Helping him open presents.


When Daddy opened his new Kentucky jersey, Mary Ellen rushed back to her room to get her shirt, so she could match Daddy. It is definitely not the right color and team for me, but it was cute to see how much she wanted to be able to match her daddy!


We have to have party hats anytime we celebrate a birthday. Mary Ellen was passing them out to everyone!


And of course, it isn't complete without blowing out the candles and always having help from Mary Ellen.
