Grace Turns 5!!!

We had a fabulous princess party for Grace and Lauren Cilderman at the church. The plan had been to have it at a park, but the weather did not cooperate. The church ended up being a great place to have it though. The kids made crowns and decorated bags.  We played "Magical Thrones", "Pin the Crown on the Princess", "Make a Wish" (throw the bean bag in the well), Hot Potato (which had a cool name I can't remember) and even had a princess pinata. The highlight of the party was a visit from the lovely Belle.  She read the kids a book and we were stunned at how attentive they were.

The birthday girls- Lauren on the end and Grace below blind-folded.

It was a super fun party with cupcakes and pizza to finish it all off!  Grace loved the crown and cards she got from school as well.  Even Principal Pace gave her a special card for her birthday.

As a family,  we went to dinner at Izus and celebrated again!

We then celebrated yet one last time as a family with Spencer and Grace our December birthdays! What a lucky girl.  I can't believe how big and grown up she is getting.  We love our very independent 5 year old!!!
