Grace's 4th! August 18 2012

Hard to believe she's 4 years old! Grace wanted to have her grandparents over for a birthday dinner for her special day, so that's what she got.

Her day started early with a birthday cake breakfast before daddy was off to work.

 Then later the grandparents showed up for one of the most random dinners. The menu: Mac and cheese, Baked Parmesan Tilapia, tomato soup, candied carrots, watermelon, and peanut butter celery. Pretty random, but it was all her favorites.
I showed Grace a few pictures of cakes and let her choose what she wanted. She chose a strawberry angel cake. It was the first angel cake I ever made, I even had to buy the special pan! It turned out pretty good. She also insisted we had a tea party while we ate the cake. So we had hot carmel apple cider, and did I mention it was a super hot day! The cider didn't make it any cooler.

What a sweet little birthday girl!
