Then she decided to get dressed in her complete princess outfit. After donning full princess gear, we went downstairs and she opened some cards...Mom and Dad's card directed her to the front sidewalk, where she found a new bike waiting for her. She made several trips around the driveway and cul de sac in her princess dress. She ditched the high heels after about 30 seconds and pedaled around without shoes after that.
Then it was off to breakfast at the bakery, followed by about 3 hours of games at Mary Kate's birthday choice...Chuck E Cheese. Mondays from 11am to 2 pm are nice and quiet at Chuck's...which Mom and Dad were thankful for.
We got back home about 3 pm and got ready for Grandma and Grandpa and the Wells family to come over for birthday dinner and cake. Dad took some nice pictures of Mary Kate in the back yard while Mom was getting dinner ready.
MK's dinner choice was french toast. I found a recipe for make ahead baked french toast, and it was a big hit. Notice her winking at the camera...this is her new skill and she practices it frequently.
Followed by more bike riding in her birthday dress.
In other news, mom finished up her two spring semester courses on Tuesday, hooray! She gets to enjoy a two week break before her 8 week summer Anatomy and Physiology class begins.
She also finished up her 480 hours of direct patient care work as a nursing assistant. She's enjoyed it so much, she'll stay on the schedule every other weekend PM shifts for the summer.
And back to birthday news, MK's princess party with her friends is on Saturday, so we'll post pictures next week. We'll be heading out to the lake for our first weekend at the cabin after the party. Hopefully we'll have warm weather and good fishing.
