The long awaited day for Gracie's birthday finally came. She was trying to be patient, but it's hard when you're 5! Gracie requested a Horse party complete with balloons, piniata and cake. I did my best to fulfill her requests and the party turned out really fun and really crazy. We had 27 kids show up and it was chaotic but very exciting for the birthday girl.
We colored stick horses and then did barrel racing.(around cones) The kids each took their turn and loved being cheered by their peers. Then the kids cracked open the piniata and dashed for the candy. We ate pizza, sang to Gracie, opened presents and then had cupcakes. Gracie recieved so many nice gifts and enjoyed spending time with all her friends. It was a beautiful day and a bit windy, but perfect for making memories and celebrating how big our little girl is getting. She's growing up so much! Thanks to everyone who came. We love you Gracie and we're so blessed to have you in our family. You are an amazing girl with such a beautiful spirit. 5 years have passed so quickly and they have all been wonderful!
