All about Rena: Rena's Birthday party

Rena's party was at the Little Gym again this year and she had a blast! She really enjoyed playing this year since she could do everything on her own! She ran around playing with all her little friends and had a great time! We extended the time of the party this year so we would have more time to eat in the party room and it worked out perfectly! The kids enjoyed playing in the gym and then we had pizza, cake, and ice cream. The Little Gym staff is so friendly and once again they took care of everything! We didn't have to do a thing- they served the pizza, cut the cake, cleaned up, and even put all the gifts in our car! It's definitely a great place to have a birthday party! And Rena cooperated by taking a good nap before the party so she was in a good mood the whole time. :)

And we were so happy that our entire families were able to come in town for Rena's party! Rena had so much fun with Nani, Nana, Mimi, Pops, Aunt Rebecca, Aunt Mindy, and Aunt Rachel. And of course MayMay was there too. :) And many of our close friends and several of Rena's school friends also attended the party. We are so thankful to have our wonderful family and friends share Rena's special day with us!Nana took several hundred pictures and it was hard to pick out which ones to post on here!

Birthday girl!

Mommy got a little emotional watching her do the shakers since I used to help her with those since she was 9 months old!!

Once again she had no problem being the center of attention! :)

The parachute has always been a favorite!
