Harley's 4th Birthday Party





















Harley has wanted a surprise birthday party for a long time. So I went ahead and planned a big surprise party for her. We told her that our house was just too small to have a birthday party and so we wouldn't be able to have a party this year. Harley was so sweet and was fine with that, however the night before her birthday I told her she needed to go to bed and when she woke up in the morning it would be her birthday. She started crying and I asked her what was wrong. She said that she just wished that she could have just one friend come. I felt so bad and mean to play such a terrible trick but I stuck to the plan. The next day Harley spent a lot of the day working with Jason so that I could get ready for the party. We had the party at my parents house. The room was filled with almost all of her Aunt's, Uncle's, Cousins, Grandparents, even Grandma Bonnie came. Just before Harley arrived we turned off of the lights and everyone ducked into a little ball (just as Harley wanted) and when she came in we jumped up and shouted SURPRISE!!! I can't describe to you the feeling in the room but it was amazing. I was blinking back my tears and Bee was crying. Harley has the sweetest heart and was very deserving of the greatest birthday party ever. We had one more big surprise for Harley, a new bike. All she told us she wanted was curlers for her hair. We got her those in the morning and saved the bike for her party. Thank you to all who came and made her day extra special and thank you to Nicole who sacrificed her beautiful appearance to dress up as a clown for all of the kids and make them balloon animals.
