Birthday Bonanza Part III

And FINALLY, the park party with friends. I'm not sure how one birthday turned into 3 celebrations--I guess I'm making up for the past 4 years. (But after this one, I'm hanging up my party-planning hat.)
A few friends from church and a few friends from preschool school met us at Kennedy Park for some hot dogs and kite-flying. (Or kot fogs and hite-dying, if you've read Shel Silverstein's Runny Babbit one too many times)
The kites were definitely a highlight. The kids had to run them to get them up in the air and most wound up in trees or tangled in each others' strings.  But they all had some much fun.

Although she was a little less shy this year, Isabella still does NOT like opening presents in front of others. I had to coach her through the whole thing until finally she just couldn't take it anymore.
Actually I love this little exchange between Isabella and Amelie--like it's their funny little joke or secret. It's so nice to have such a special friend (friends) to celebrate with.
