Brielle's 4th B-day Party!

This is Brielle, Our oldest daughter, whom we adopted when she was just 5 days old!...

Her party was so fun but a bit crazy. i about lost it there for a bit when all the kids started ran-sacking her presents.I was trying to just at least get a few pics of her and a bit of recording done so, she could remember when she was four forever.








The kids blew out her candles before she could even get to them so, we had to re-light them for her! It's kind of humorous now!



The bouncy castle was a success and resulted in only 2 injuries. one being Aria's noggin! The man who set it up said that this was the first time he has ever seen the 13 x 13 ft. castle ever fit IN someone's home.


Most people i guess underestimate it's size but, man, we pushed around the 800 lbs piano and moved the furniture before he came so, he could just blow it on up. Brielle liked controlling the house and turning the blower off when she felt like it. Not really a good idea. Luckily, she didn't do it with kids in it!



There were about 40 peeps there and it was fun but, NEXT TIME... I will throw it at the Bounce U or Pump it Up or have it in a Backyard ( for Aria's B-day) for sure. It was so big, it just kinda felt cramped but after all the friends were gone and the ice cream was all melted, I whisked the girls off to bed and brushed their teeth and tucked them in and Brielle said:


" Mom, this was the Best Birthday Party ever. I love you!"
It was all worth it!






It was so nice to have Brielle's Birth-mom come for a bit too! She is expecting a boy in a few weeks! We are excited for her and nervous- birth is crazy sometimes!

Man, I just can't believe 4 years have gone by sooooo fast!
