Mckayla wanted to have a family birthday party, but none of the cousins were with our side of the family around MG's birthday, so her party got pushed back till November. She was really good about waiting and being patient. We had planned to do treats and a couple of gifts right around her birthday, but then I was really sick for several days before her birthday and a few days after.
We finally got ice cream a few days after her birthday and then let Mckayla open a couple of gifts later that week when I didn't have work. She was so excited to open a few gifts. We gave her a couple of small gifts from us and her gift from Grandma and Papa Rose and Aunt Julie.
Then, on November 4th we had Mckayla's family birthday party. Mckayla wanted a DJ Suki cake from Trolls. I thought it turned out really cute!
After gifts was cake time. Mckayla loved her Trolls cake, which made getting in the zone and accidentally staying up till 2 AM working on her cake the night before totally worth it.
We had so much fun with almost the entire side of the Bennett Family at her birthday celebrating this big girl. Mckayla is so much fun. She is continuing to progress in her reading and loves doing math on Khan Acadamy online. She is goofy and mischievous but also so very caring. She LOVES preschool this year and can't wait for school next year. She is very creative and so quick witted it is scary. She can tell the most amazing stories because of her amazing imagination and quick wit. We sure love our spunky 5 year old!
