penelope is four!

penelope turned four at the end of the month and had an out of this world space themed party. do you see what i did there? clever, clever. we enjoyed rocket dogs for lunch and played with martian mud and penelope wore a full astronaut suit, of course. it's so fun to have a childhood friend who lives so close to me and has a kid so close in age to mine. and now she is having another baby... who will be exactly a year younger than heath. which will be not such a big difference in a few years time. i love it. in conclusion, here are photos. happy birthday to feisty little penelope. she's a girl who knows what she likes and i can certainly appreciate that! four looks great on you!
