Kamdyn decided to have her party at Monkey Joe's back in October when she went to Jacob's party there. She LOVED it! Then, we went to another party there and she seemed to have a change of heart. However, she INSISTED on having her party there regardless despite my reservations! I agreed despite not having full control at a party place like this. Richard was out of town the week prior which made my planning a little more strategic. Luckily, I had everything done and the week went smoothly.
Kamdyn was ready for her big day! When we got to Monkey Joe's she did great at first. Then, she seemed to be a little overwhelmed and begin to have somewhat of a meltdown. After a trip to the bathroom and a threat to take her home she attempted to get herself together. Once we were in the party room eating pizza and cupcakes she seemed to transform back into her sweet fun-loving self. I hated for our guests to see her "melt down" and I apologized profusely. I did hear her say while opening her presents, "This is the best party EVER!" That comment eased my mind and my feelings because they were a little hurt after all of my effort and planning for her party. I think a good time was had by all. I still can't believe that she will be 4 on Thursday. I'll post my Mommy comments on that later! Until then, Happy Birthday, Baby Girl!

Kamdyn finally went down the big slide with Daddy but only ONCE! I think this was the start of her "mood."
Having a good time!

And a GREAT TIME was had by all. Kamdyn is absolutely amazing with her vocabulary and ability to dazzle us all. Who knew being a grandmother could be so much fun. Must be why they call it "GRAND"! She's just growing up so fast.
