Lily's 4th Birthday (as told by Lily)

(as told on August 16, 2009): Yesterday was my birthday. I am four now. Yesterday, Zoe and me and my friend Victoria with her little sister Malia (people we ran into at the fair from our old neighborhood) all rode ponies four times at the fair. One pony was a white one named Prince, one was named Daisy, and one was C.J. And one was Samuel. We also petted bunnies, and we saw roosters and we didn't pet them. We did see a big fluffy cow and we saw one with 'normous horns. We went to Texas Roadhouse for dinner. I ate macaroni and they sang to me and they said "yee haw!" They gave me some ice cream and I think that was all.

Last Friday I had a friend party. Pilar, Abbie, Lydia, Hana and Clara and Zoe came to it, but not the other Hannah because her family was gone. Everyone had a balloon tied on their chair and my balloon was a pony balloon. We colored unicorn pictures and played "horse, horse, unicorn" and pass the package and had a treasure hunt. The clues were tied to pretty ponies. The treasure was party bags in the oven. We decorated magic wand cookies with frosting and sprinkles. I got princess shoes and necklaces from my friends.


Tonight Logan and Jared and Ethan and Sarah and Hannah and Grandmakaere and FarFar and Great-Grandma came to my birthday party. I got Barbie things that stick on your clothes. I got a princess bike and it was purple with a water bottle. Zoe came. I got dress-ups and paper dolls and a princess towel and some horse stamps, and I got a bike helmet and knee pads and arm pads and a princess purple bouncy ball. My cake was a unicorn with one eye and no feet. It was purple with pink sprinkles. I rode my bike around and around and played in the sandbox and made a cake in the sandbox and jumped on our bouncy balls. I think that is everything.
