Gimme FIVE!


We had another birthday this week! Makenzie is now 5! I guess you can call it one of those milestone birthdays. We celebrated on her actual birthday as a family on Wednesday. Jordan is also showing us he is three. He has mastered holding up the fingers since his birthday.

She had a special day at preschool and much attention was given to her there. She got a sandbox (so she stops playing in the neighbor's flower beds) and piano books to start learning the piano. I have toiled over the last 2 months to make a BLUE Sleeping Beauty dress. I made it big so it will fit for a few years. I took the picture right after she opened it, but I already adjusted the straps so it doesn't fall off her and drag on the floor. She also got a crown and jewelry to top off her new princess dress.


On Saturday we let her have a little friend party. It turned out well and all the girls got a long. They dressed-up as princesses, painted their nails, and played in the new sandbox. We gave them each a Barbie as their party favor, which was a big hit. Makenzie has been so excited for her cake. I was a little nervous making it (and having it turn out). Makenzie and all the girls approved (and Gavin also)!
