She's no longer a baby. She's no longer a toddler. Now she is a young lady. Probably out of all birthdays this was one of the hardest for me. 5 years old. I just want her to stay little forever!
Because Steve was away for her actual birthday, we birthday'd it up with her one evening prior to him leaving.
And on her birthday, she celebrated with her closest friends. Panama party style. On one of the hottest days ever. lol. Silly girls!
I planned nothing. Just had various stations set up and said - go play. And that they did - they moved around so quickly I had a hard time taking pictures - bounce house, bubbles, drawing, chalk, dolls, make up....they did everything. All while, laughing, chattering, giggling - she was in the presence of her special friends. It was a great day!
Supper was served - chicken, cucumbers and tomatoes - Mckenzie's favourite!
She doesn't like cake. BUT she does love some watermelon! So a watermelon easy cake was what she wanted :)
This special group of girls is why Mckenzie isn't going to kindergarten in the Fall. Her special friends are all Church related friends and we would love to foster those relationships - so she will wait and go in the Fall 2018 with her best friends instead. This picture also makes me laugh - she's the oldest by 6 months to a 10 months but just about the smallest lol.
And not long after her birthday, we celebrated with family!
Happy Birthday Special Girl. You are loved so very much!
