Happy 4th Birthday McKenzie Mae!

May 31, 2014

Happy Birthday Day McKenzie!  Today is my 4th birthday and we headed to breakfast at the Black Bear Diner!  Here I am as a four year old.  Do I look older? 

 I found a great place to sit and rest!

 Oh my!  Look at that!  I sat right by a bear.  I hope it is a nice bear!

We got a corner booth to sit in!  I order the same thing every time, so, no need to look at the menu!

 Look at that sweet and beautiful 4 year old.  How she has grown and learned so much over the last year.  It sure has been fun to watch her grow this last year into a little girl! We have been so blessed by God to have her in our family!

 I wanted my picture taken too, so, I gave mommy a smile she couldn't resist!

 My sister was entertaining me while we waited for our order to be taken! 

 I sure love my daddy!  I had fun sitting by him!

A sweet hug from the birthday girl!

 Grammy came over to keep me sitting in my chair.  I love to squirm out of it!

 Is this how I am supposed to sit in it!

 Granpy put a straw in my cup, but I guess he was not quick enough for me or I was worried he wouldn't do it right!

 That is such a sad face! 

 I also got to sit with Grammy.  We have such a fun time together.  Here is a really sweet picture of the two of us!

 We ordered the 7 grain pancakes, which are a favorite for us girls.  Look at that pancake, it is as big as my head and I plan on eating it all.  

 Here I am on my 1st birthday busy eating a whole pancake at the Black Bear.  Wow, look how much I have grown.  

 It is time to dig in.  I can hardly wait.  Don't worry I kept up with my one year old self and ate the whole pancake!

 I also got a really big pancake to eat and I was so excited!  Granpy cut it up for me, so, I could shove it in my mouth.  

 I kept trying and trying to eat it all, but it was just too big for me.  I was only able to eat about half of it! 

 It was sure a yummy pancake!  I love the Black Bear Diner for breakfast.  

 On the way out, I wanted to get my picture taken in front of a different bear.  

I guess I am too tall to stand in front of the bear and need to stand behind it now that I am a four year old.  We headed out to go and get some balloons for my party and get ready for my friends to come over and celebrate!
