Birthday Night

Ally's actual birthday evening was fun too! We invited her friend Stella and her family over for dinner. Ally received a Rapunzel doll from Stella.


Becky and I got Ally a play tent - its a Princess Castle Tent. We thought it would mean less fort building. Not necessarily true, but Ally loves it.



Shannon (Stella's mom ) and I thought Becky looked very "bad witch in the Wizard of Oz" in this picture. For those of you who know me and my opposition to all things Wizard of Oz it was a bit freaky. Turns out Shannon doesn't like that movie either!


The girls immediately started playing in it.

Ally and her own cake.


5 years old!


I told her she could cut it herself. She stood up to get enough leverage.


super excited silly face



Stella and Violet eating cake


Violet liked it so much she licked the plate!


After our friends left Ally opened some more gifts. Thank-you Aunt Martha for the new pillow.


Aunt Louise sent Ally a new book "Treasury for 5 year olds" Ally was so excited - she gets one from Louise every year and she seemd expecially thrilled with this gift, its kind of a right of passage to move up to the next year.

It was a great day.
