6 years

My oldest has finally turned 6. I can't believe it. Her birthday was Dec. 12. Once again I was not going to throw a party, but some how I get dragged into them every year. One of my friends from church, Heather Swartz, thought that we should combine her daughter's birthday party with Isabel's since they are both in the same week. They also are in the same class at church and in school, so they have the same friends. I thought, sure what the heck, might as well. Isabel was excited, because she was actually going to get a party. Thank You Heather! She did all the planning. I just showed up and helped decorate.
First, I had to visit Isabel at school to celebrate her birthday with all of her classmates. We brought gingerbread cookies, marshmallows, and juice boxes. Not to fancy, but she better be glad she got anything.Now, for the party. It was a Princess Tea Part Theme. All the girls came decked out with princess attire, and then we had all of the glitz and glamor to frost themselves with. You know, the tiaras, bracelets, rings, wands, earrings... Here is Isabel and Jenny before the party started.We had face and finger nail painting.Even Cinderella came to the party. And of course the Tea PartyHappy Birthday Isabel and Jenny. May all your wishes come true.


I know that I never posted pictures about Little Anthony or Gabriella's birthday, but like I said, I'm not big on the birthday parties. I try to get away with not having them as much as possible. We considered our Disney World Trip their birthday present. They didn't seem to mind not having their friends around....they had a blast with the family.

Our family was never big on them either. They were always just for family.
