Clara's Birthday

Miss Clara Belle is 4 and it seems like i've known that little lady so much longer than just four years. She's about as sweet as they come and I love her to bits. Not sure what I did before I had her to laugh with every day. Happy happy birthday tootie;) Some of Clara's favorites:
pre-school and her favorite teacher Mrs. Brooke
toast and fruit for just about every meal
cuddling
playing with friends
her baby dolls
laughing with Grady
flowers
coloring
dancing and singing to music
not going to bed

love Gray's reaction in this picture... so funny that boy.

For Clara's b-day we had a little party with our family and then had her Nana and Pappa and cousins have a party that weekend. We took the kids to Kangaroo Zoo where they bounced to their hearts content then came back to our house for dinner and cake. She requested a "real" cake this - no wheat flour or honey sweetened muffins or anything - she wanted the real deal....ahh well it was her birthday! The cake turned out pretty awful looking but Clara loved it and it was pretty tasty (although I thought the honey muffins we made for her last year tasted better:). It was a lovely night.
