This year we decided to celebrate McKel's bday a couple days early, since their dad got to take them on her actual birthday. We drove up to Logan to visit Nana and Papa and invited all the fam over to join in the celebration. Mommy made some chocolatey cupcakes and Mike added some delightful decorations from the movie
Rango, since that's been McKel's favorite and most-watched movie all year long. We also invited Sierra (our next door neighbor from our old house) over, since the girls always love seeing her. Poor little McKel unfortunately did not feel so well for her birthday party. She did her best to act herself, but the energy level just wasn't the usual bouncy McKel. McKel did manage to blow out her candles, open her presents, and even crack a smile here and there. She was a trooper, making it through her party while being sick.

Happy birthday to McKel, our 3 year old girl! You are a ball full of energy and joy and growing and learning so quickly, it constantly amazes me. You are little miss personality, always making everyone around you laugh. You are amazing, and you are very loved.
