Emily is FIVE!

Our biggest little girl is FIVE already. Five seems like such a big milestone: you start school when you're five. We had a wonderful weekend celebrating the five years that Emily has been part of our family. Emily's preschool had their holiday program on her birthday. Not only did Emily have a special role in the program but at the end of the show we got a big surprise: Emily was called forward, presented with a cupcake and the audience sang happy birthday to her. It was a memorable moment to say the least.

On a side note, it was Aubrey's first pageant. She did a great job standing on stage but that's about it. It is safe to say that Aubrey was not interested in performing on stage :)

On Saturday we had a birthday party for Emily's friends. The kids had fun playing at an indoor playground and seeing all of her friends reminded us how lucky we are to have such an amazing community surrounding us.

Finally, on Sunday, we had our family party. We were lucky to have so many family members make it to the celebration. Again, we are so incredibly lucky to have the supportive family we have.




















We are looking forward to the year ahead and some new milestones for our big girl! Love you Em!!
