Melody is 6!
Melody turned 6 back at the end of May! We celebrated by letting her pick all the things we did and ate.
We started the morning with the annual balloon drop. Melody even reminded us of this the night before even though we had already planned it!
Then we made her pancakes and bacon for breakfast.
Her Nannie and Bob Bob had a company place signs in our yard for her birthday. So we had to go out and see them! Fun fact - they remained in our yard for a few days because it rained, and I guess they didn’t want to come get them in the rain.
Of course the next thing Melody wanted to do was open presents.
After presents we had lunch at McDonald’s followed by a nap.
I didn’t grab any pictures between her nap and cake. But we played with her new toys then we had Chick fit A for dinner. She got to play in the play area for a while before we went home and had cake! She requested a Barbie themed birthday. So I used my grandmother’s Barbie dress mold and made a Barbie cake myself.
We then ate cake and and started putting together her Legos that she got for her birthday.
Here are a few shots of her celebrating her birthday prior to her actual birthday. We had dinner at a local Mexican restaurant where they sang to her. She played with new toys from her birthday party, then she celebrated her birthday at school!
Overall she had a great birthday, I think!
Here are her birthdays past;
