Bella's 4th Pink Family Birthday Party

Bella has become obsessed with the color pink over the last few months.  And since then she has also been requesting a pink birthday.  She REALLY wanted me to paint the house pink as well as the carpet for her birthday, I told her that wasn't realistic, lol.  So instead we decorated as much as we could, including people.  Just about everybody either wore pink or wore something that was pink, it was awesome!  We let Bella decide what order to do things and she wanted to play games first so EVERYONE sat down and played duck, duck, goose (one of her favorite games).  It takes a while to play even one round with having 23 people playing so we only played three rounds but everyone played and it was a lot of fun!  After the 3rd round she was ready to move on to hide and seek, again EVERYONE participated!  HOW FUN!  Grandma and Grandpa even hid!  She had to find 22 people, what fun!  Bobby had the best spot, hiding in Bella's trundle!  Next Bella wanted to have cake, she loved her pink strawberry cake.  We also had pink marshmellow bouquets, pink lemonade and at dinner we had pink rice with our chicken!

Bella was kind of confused.  I had to explain she had to break through the streamers.  She had fun once she got it.  My niece, Ashley, decorated everything.  Dallin helped a lot too.

 I'm 4!

Debra didn't get a pink shirt for Rob thinking he wouldn't wear it.  But I think he felt left out so he stole Bobby's shirt, lol.

 SMOOCH!

Here is our yummy pink rice!

 



Lisa and co. got Bella pink cowboy boots, seriously the cutest things ever!!!  She didn't take them off all night.  Bella also loved getting Thomas the Train movies and mermaid from Rhona and fam.  She slept with a little pig from the Wassoms that is from Scentsy that has something fragrant in it.

When all was said and done I have to admit I got a little emotional.  We got to have a large family birthday celebration for my daughter that we waited for three years to get pregnant with!  So much love and it meant a lot to be able to have it actually on the 4th anniversary of the day of her birth!!!  WE ARE SO BLESSED!  Thank you Wayne, Rhona, Xavier, Max, Kylie, Neela, Debra, Rob, Ashley, Bobby, Dallin, Camille, Mark, Lisa, McKayla, Natasha, and of course Grandma and Grandpa Melton!!  WE LOVE YOU ALL SO MUCH!!

 

Fun things about Bella:  she loves everybody, seriously, no matter what you look like and who you are she is more than likely already going to love you and want to play.  Age also does not matter.  She hates, absolutely hates saying goodbye, she doesn't ever want anyone to leave her (other than her parents ;).  She loves Thomas the train as well as mermaids and fairies and of course is obsessed with pink right now.  She loves her school and her favorite is to paint.  She also is excellent at memorizing and learning spanish words (thanks to Dora the Explorer).  She is an extremely picky eater but is getting better and she likes to help.  She is perpetually happy and she pretty much has one volume, very loud (we are working on that one).  She loves her little brother and they play so well together.

 

Happy birthday my beautiful Baby Bella Bugs!!  WE LOVE YOU!!!!
