Kenzie's Birthday Part 2

Here's the second installment of how Kenzie spent her 4th birthday: She talked to her grandparents (they're in France on an LDS mission) via the webcam. They even sang Happy Birthday with us -
- so she could blow out her big 4 candle. She didn't even wait for the song to end; about halfway through she blew it out, licked the frosting off the bottom (as she's seen her cousins do many times) and dug in.
Then we took her to the movies to see Up. For months now McKenzie has been planning her birthday to, "watch a movie on the big screen and get popcorn!" So here she is with the huge tub of buttery goodness we got. Kenzie loved the movie (in her words it was the "best movie ever" and she laughed and commented through the whole thing).
When she got home, she promptly tried out the new painting set and created several masterpieces.
Then we carried out the rest of Kenzie's birthday request: a "Happy Donald Meal" picnic in the park. Obviously today was not a day to count calories!
Parker is little French Fry Face. He must have had at least six french fries in his hand at any given time. That kid will shake his head furiously at most foods, but give him a greasy fry and he'll reach out and grab ten more! 8:28pm. Kenzie tried claiming at 8 that she still wanted to play, but once I convinced her to lay down I didn't hear another peep. It was quite the eventful birthday!
