Let the Celebrating Begin!


On the Thursday before Mackenzie's birthday, we got to take cookies to ELP to celebrate! She was very proud of the cookies I made, and so excited to share them with her friends! She wore her "Happy Birthday" shirt that Grandma Baldwin got her, and her tiara headband from Aunt Barbara! When we got to school, I asked if Brian could come down and take a few pictures while they ate their cookies...then I decided I really wanted to be there for it, so I came back too! This was a really fun day at ELP for Mackenzie, because not only did she get to celebrate her birthday, but it was Chick-fil-a day and they got to have a picnic outside! The weather was beautiful! Ms. Nancy and Ms. Amy had a pretend birthday cake that they lit candles on, and they turned out the lights & everyone sang Happy Birthday to Mackenzie. It was so sweet, because while they were singing, Mackenzie looked right at me and smiled so sweetly so I could take her picture! She knows how to make her momma happy! Someone commented on how adorable the cookies were and Mackenzie said, "These are my GORGEOUS cookies!" Oh, what a funny girl she is! This was a very fun way to start her birthday celebration!


Ms. Nancy made sure to hold her hair back so it didn't get in a candle!Mackenzie got to pick which cookie she wanted, but for the other boys and girls "You get what you get & you don't get upset!" That is a line Mackenzie has picked up on from ELP and repeated several times at home!The kids really liked the icing...not so much the cookies! It was fun to watch Mackenzie interact in her class! This was about 10 minutes before class was over and I asked if she was ready to go and she said she wanted to stay until it was over...I am so glad she loves ELP! The pretty cookies! So glad my mom taught me to do this...they are a lot of work, but fun & tasty too!
