F.I.V.E

Friday we celebrated a huge day.
Crista turned five.
F.I.V.E.
That's half a decade people!
Everyone kept telling me time would fly once we had kids,
but seriously!
Five, already?!?!


We started off Crista's birthday the same way
we have for the past 3 birthdays,
pancakes with candles, and the Happy Birthday song.
But this year, she instead of plain ole pancakes,
wanted purple pancakes :-)


Crista's been talking about this birthday since her fourth birthday.
She's been planning her party for a year now.
And she's only changed her mind 413, 657 times.
{At least.}
In the end she decided to invite a friend to go to
Build-A-Bear,
then go to the play area in the mall,
followed up with a trip to Lovin' Spoons,
which just happens to be the best fro-yo around!
Her birthday was wonderful and magical and full of giggles,
just as it should be!!





Happy Birthday sweet girl!!
We love you so so so so much!!!

I'll have her 5 year old portraits and her yearly interview up
hopefully this week.
Its just been too hot to take pictures.
So check back soon!

Happy Birthday!!!! 5 is HUGE! to me it is anyway. I remember thinking 3 was big because they are no longer a toddler, but 5 is big until you get to the double digits.
Can't wait to see what pictures you take, I haven't thought aobut what to do for Maya's yet, we still have until the end of October.
Maya has that same build a bear, its name is Nice Dottie, since our cat at the time was named Dottie but not very nice.
Addie looks so cute and looks like she's having a great time. Love the girls and their backpack carriers. Happy Birthday!!!!!
