Goldie is FOUR!

April 30, 2009

Goldie Emma Richardson turned four years old.

She invited friends and family to her birthday party for months before the day finally arrived.

Together we decided to have the party at Mom-Maw's house. We woke up in the morning and after a lesurley breakfast we went for a hike with Mom-Maw. These are the flowers that we picked along the road to her old house up the holler.





Here is one of the spider cakes we made. This one has chocolate under the white icing. Her cousin Megan and her brother Josiah had lots of fun helping to decorate her cakes.













She got a camera for her birthday and had lots of fun taking pictures of everything all day long.

This is her spider cake with the eight to ten legs that were on it at any one time. Josiah or one of the other kids would steal a leg and then Goldie and Megan would add extra ones back. When it was time to eat it they gave forks to all the little kids and just let them have at this cake. They had lots of fun.






We went on two hikes during the day. The second one was in the evening after we ate sloppy joes or cooked hot dogs over the open fire. Our friend JoBeth and her three little ones and our niece Amanda went on the second hike with us.

Mike and Goldie showed us this plant. The green thing on Goldie's cheek is called a May Apple. They are not edible but they are fun to throw.

Here is our beautiful little Goldie Girl. We love her very much. We are so glad that she if four years old. She had a great birthday!
