It's Good to Be Nine

Kate had her 9th birthday on Saturday.  One can never be quite sure about the weather in January and whether it will cooperate with birthday plans or not.  This year, the weather was exceptionally good for January and all of the Indiana family was able to come and help us celebrate.  They even got to play outside for awhile.

 The elephant was actually a Christmas gift.  Ellie is never far from Kate's side

 
 
 



Kate loves animals more than anything.  When I saw this cake, oh my goodness!  I just loved it and knew that it would be perfect for Kate!  She loves animals and she loves tea and having tea parties.  Also, I had everything we needed already.  It doesn't get any better than that!

 something about the lighting at this place and my phone camera were not a good combination, but I LOVE the people in the picture!

When trying to write this post, I realized we took very few pictures.  I guess we were too busy being in the moment. 

It was a great day and we had a great time celebrating, even if there aren't any great pics to prove it!
