Miriam's 4th Birthday

So we got a little behind on our posting.  :)  Miriam celebrated her 4th birthday on November 4. (Which we realized on her birthday that it was her golden birthday.)  She had to go to school that day, but she took strawberry cupcakes to share with her class.  Her teacher said she was very happy all day.  Then after school we got McDonald's for her & Josiah for supper & brought it back to the apartment so we could open her gifts.  I made a strawberry cake for her at home.  She said she had a great day!

Then a little over a week later, on November 13, we had a joint birthday party for her with 2 of her classmates who also had November birthdays.  We invited her whole class.  About half of them & their families came.  The kids had lots of fun.  We held the party at an indoor play center.  It's always a bit difficult going to the birthday parties for the kids because not many of the parents speak English.  But the kids enjoy it, so we get through it.  :)

Here are some pictures from her birthday celebrations.
