Willa is four and it was time to celebrate... ladybug style! Willa informed us a few weeks before her birthday that she would like to have a ladybug party and a ladybug party it was! Ladybug banners, ladybug plates, ladybug crowns, ladybug balloons, ladybug games, ladybug face painting, ladybug crafts and yes... real ladybugs for party favors!

This is what happens when Willa beats me to Adlai's room after nap!
Adlai got her very own swing for the playset for her birthday. She is a swinging fool just like her sister
Doesn't it look like they just got caught doing something they shouldn't?
