Ellary's 4 Year Old Party!
Ellary turned 4 years old on April 22nd! She was so excited to have her first ever friend birthday party. What a great time! 12 little three, four and five year old girls running around, making paper bows for their hair, playing freeze dance, swinging at a pinata, then eating cake and ice cream and opening presents. What can be more fun?
How about a nap after everything is all said and done? How about that?
We are glad Ellary had such a fun time celebrating her birthday. We are proud of the big girl she is becoming and how she brings so much happiness to our lives.
Just for memory sake, here are some of Ellary's favorite things at this stage in her life.
Color: Pink
Activity: Dancing
Cartoon Character: Daisy Duck
Disney Princess: Ariel from the Little Mermaid
Things to do during the day besides dancing: Coloring, playing with My Little Ponies, and on her little learning lap top.
What she can't hardly wait to do: Go to preschool, and tap and ballet lessons in the fall.
Alyson's Big Celebration!
Alyson turned 9 years old on April 30th. Wow-nine whole years! This was the first year she had a slumber party for her birthday, and it was so much fun. The energy Kris and I spent on 8 eight and nine year old girls in a 16 hour time period was far less than the energy we exude for 2 hours with 12 little girls. What fun this older age group is, not to say Ellary's age isn't fun, just requires a little more endurance!
Aly, we hope you had a lot of fun and that you always remember the special time when you celebrated your 9th birthday with your friends (and us too, or course!)

All the girlies watching Alyson open presents.
Every half hour a girl would pop a balloon and get a prize or have to do some silly requirement to earn one depending on what the paper inside said to do. They also tie-dyed shirts but we didn't get any pictures of that.
Kris judged the toilet paper mummy contest.
Some of the girls taught the others a new group dance.
Girls have gotta be girls and most girls like nail polish.
The next morning eating pancakes that Kris made them...Hey, the girls only stayed up until about 11:00pm. Not too bad, right?
Some fun facts about Alyson right now:
