Hollis is 4

The girls and I drove to Dallas with Rachel and Bebe so we could celebrate our cousin, Hollis, turning 4 on May 2nd.  

Adeline and Hollis are buddies and I love that they enjoy each other even if we don't live in the same city.  

The party theme was "Run for the candles" since Hollis' birthday was the same day as the Kentucky Derby.  There were pony rides, make your own derby hat craft station, a bounce house and face painting.  The adults enjoyed mint julips and watched the race.  

Adeline and Anna had the time if their lives.  Anna stayed at the pony station almost the entire party.  She was out of her skin with excitement to ride Bonzo and Lady.  I bet she went around the circle 15 times.  I had to pry her away with brownies and ice cream!

Adeline loved the pony but also enjoyed face painting and the bounce house.  She was very proud of her sparkle face.  Anna wasn't quite sure about the face painting, but she was really curious.  She watched several kids ahead of her in line and then she realized she could just paint her arm.   That was perfect for her and so she asked for an Elsa Frozen arm.  She was pleased as punch with the results. 

Adeline and Hollis ran around and had a ball.  My girls were exhausted after a weekend of shopping and  the party.  

We had fun and miss Hollis!   Can't wait for our summer play date.
