Megan's 5th Birthday






Megan had a great 5th birthday!! Grandma Betty came to town on Wednesday to help us celebrate. Megan picked out the cake and Grandma Betty decorated it. (Megan selected the colors and design of the dress!) Megan started her day off by going to pre-school. Mommy, Kyle and Grandma Betty joined her at the end of school for a cupcake party. Megan was excited to help the teacher pass all the cupcakes out to her friends. Grandma Betty took us all to McDonald's for lunch and we brought a round of Happy Meals home.....a big treat because Mommy only gets Happy Meals on special occasions!!
It was a pleasent 50 degree day and the kids spent the afternoon outside playing in our soggy and muddy backyard...but they had a great time. Megan choose Princess Pasta for supper...the adults had adult pasta :) Then Grandma and Grandpa Clippard, Uncle Glenn, Aunt Brenda, Rachel and Becky joined us for present opening and cake & ice cream.
Megan received lots of great presents. Earlier in the week she had gone shopping with Grandma Clippard and picked out her Littlest Pet Shop additions and some pretty clothes. Today we will go shopping with Grandma Betty and Megan will get to pick out some summer clothes....and she got a special gift certificate from Aunt Brenda to take her shopping soon!!!! What a lucky girl with all her shopping. Soon Megan will be as addicted to shopping as her mother:) Megan also recieved a pretty swim suit, cover up and glitter flip flops from Aunt Lisa, Uncle Ryan and Matthew! From Mommy and Daddy (and Justin and Kyle) Megan recieved a puppy that grows (and shrinks), it also talks and sings to you. She really wanted it and it thrilled. We also got her several book sets to go with her Leap Pad, a Detroit Tigers hat, hair accessories and some crafts. Rachel & Becky also gave Megan a Barbie computer, a Barbie computer game and a purse full of little goodies. Grandma Clippard also gave Megan the 5th train for her Precious Moments birthday train. She was quite a lucky girl and very grateful for all the great presents.
