Easter 2011

On Saturday of Easter weekend we went up to Auntie Linda's and Uncle Rick's.  Saturday afternoon Taylor got to play with her cousins Max and Meg.

Easter Morning Taylor was very happy to see that the Easter Bunny visited Auntie Linda's house and left her a basket full of goodies and hid eggs around the house for her.

Good Friday 2011

On Good Friday we went to the Turtle Back Zoo with Michele and Ryan.  Even though a bit chilly the kids had a good time.

Taylor's 4th Birthday Party

Today Taylor celebrated her birthday with 7 of her friends at the gym where she does gymnastics on Saturday mornings.  Taylor had so much fun today as did her friends.  There certainly was a lot of laughing going on in the gym today.  They slid there way through the catepillar, hopped down the bouncy runway, swung into the block pit.  At the end Taylor was put into a harness and lifted off the ground where she swung back and forth and up and down.  I have never heard her laugh so hard.  She had a blast.  See the video below.  After gym time where they all worked up an appetite, pizza and birthday cake awaited.

Taylor's brithday would not be complete without a Dora birthday cake.

Yeah!!!  She blew out the candles all by herself.

One of her fabulous presents included princess gear.  Here she is in her tiara, drop earrings, boa and dazzle shoes with heels.  She is already for the big wedding on the 29th.

Happy 4th Birthday!!!!

Today is Taylor's 4th birthday.  Off she went to school today with goodie bags and cupcakes for her classmates.  I arranged to have pizza brought in for lunch for the class so the could celebrate Taylor's birthday.  While she was at school I went to work to wrap presents, assemble a doll house, attempt to assemble a trampoline and get her a Dora balloon.  After I pick her up we will open presents and then go out to dinner.  Her birthday party with her friends will be Sunday April 10th.  More pictures to follow later tonight and on the 10th from her party.
