On her actual birthday, we had a party at Auntie Laura, Dan, and Dylan's house. It was pretty low-key, with just Grammy Liisa joining us. We ordered pizza, opened presents, and ate cake. She got several Barbie dolls, a Hello Kitty purse, and a musical princess ballerina dress from her Grandma Jo, which she immediately had to wear.
Grammy Liisa made an amazing cake:
which Maisie LOVED!
Then, of course, we had a pinata. Even Ella took a swing at it:
It's hard to see because the picture is blurry, but trust me: that baby is holding, and swinging, a HUGE stick.
Maisie's birthday fell on a weekday. So on the following Saturday, we had a party with her school friends at Adventure Peak at Edinborough, an indoor play park. We also invited our friends Emi and Liza, who joined us and enjoyed the cupcakes.
Of course, Emi wasn't the only kid who loved the cupcakes...
Ella did some damage to hers, too!
Everyone had fun playing, and Maisie had a great day with her friends.
We're so happy with our sweet, silly, funny, loving, smart, and all-around wonderful Maisie! The past four years with her have been a joy. We can't wait to see what the future holds for her!

What a great cake! It looks like it was a wonderful time all around.

I so loved seeing both of your girls last weekend! I'm kicking myself, though, that we didn't get any pictures!!
So hard to believe that Maisie is 4. She is really quite and awesome girl (and Ben still appreciates the flower!)
I'm so gald to see those pictures! I knew there was that one of her in the candle glow somewhere! Wonderful to see.
