I can't believe that my little girl is 5!
Where has the time gone?
Mae got to celebrate for almost an entire week! We started off by having her little friend party, we decided to do an outdoor movie! We rented a giant movie screen, had a popcorn machine, and of course cake!! Again hats off to my sister in law Kylee, she is amazing! We watched Lady and the Tramp, had cake, opened presents and ran around the backyard. It was so much fun!
The morning of her birthday arrived! She woke up to a room full of balloons and a tent waiting for her in her room! She has been asking for probably a year for a tent, and when I couldn't find one I liked much, I decided to make one! Luckily she loves it! Then we had birthday cake pancakes, which I forgot to get a picture of, but you can find the recipe
here. They were delicious!
Then it was off to dance!
After Dance she said she wanted to have a picnic in the park, so we had a nice relaxing afternoon in the sunshine!
We came home to another surprise! A Bike! We also had a hard time finding a bike we loved, so my handy husband striped an old bike down and redid it! Its one of a kind and fit all of her requirement: Pink, with a basket for her pups! We're still working on riding it, she has her mothers coordination skills, but she absolutely loves going out on it! Cody is just having to be a good sport and run along with her!
Then it was time for cake! What a loved little girl she is! Kylee and Spencer made her a 2nd cake!
Anyone familiar with Plants versus Zombies? Its a game for the ipod, Mae is obsessed! All those little plants and zombies are handmade and edible! Seriously they are amazing. I keep telling her she should go into business.
Like always Mae was spoiled rotten by all the people that love her! I sometimes worry that we are spoiling her to much, but at the same time I'm so happy that she knows how many people love her! I'd say she had a pretty good day!
