A Big Birthday!

Saturday the 20th was this girl's 5th birthday!!! Hard to believe our first born is five. It literally brings tears to my eyes to really think about it.

She will start kindergarten in August of next year. Now that seems impossible. It seems like just yesterday our family looked like this........

And now it looks like this..........!!!

Friday she had her bday party at preschool. Then saturday she had her actual birthday and a her first "Friends" birthday party! She started off the day with gifts from us in the morning and then off to the local donut shop for donuts!
Showing off her card from Mom, Dad and Sisters. Doesn't she look thrilled? She takes after her father ;)

Opening up her c.d. player and Carrie Underwood c.d. This present has been quite the hit!

Opening up her Princess Tent

All ready for the party!

She had been saying for MONTHS she wanted a Princess Tiana cake (from Princess and the Frog movie)

I made headbands for each one of the girls as party favors. They turned out pretty cute. And luckily there wasn't any hair pulling over who got which one!

Making a Wish

Getting some quality play time in her room with all her friends.

Our friends Stewart and Melissa came with their daughter Maddison and helped out at the party!

Dana will probably kill me for putting this picture on here. But how cute it this? Seriously. You know he's an awesome Daddy when he'll do this!

My friend Melissa and I. I look at this picture and think....Boy I really look tired. I WAS. I still am. I look even worse today.

Killer Eyes!

  2. Can't believe she's 5 already!! Seems like yesterday when I sent Dana an email congratulating him on becoming a daddy, and to my surprise, you wrote me back! I'll admit, I was a bit nervous as to why Dana's wife was writting me back...but I'm so glad you did!! Who knew that such a great friendship could grow like it has over the internet?! Anyways...hope she had a great day!! Looks like she had tons of fun with her friends! I love the headbands, too!! Will you be making more?! :) Hope you're all staying warm!!!
