It's My Life: Mackenzie's 5!

Seriously? Already? Where has the time gone? I can't believe my baby girl is already five. This was just yesterday, I swear.

Actually, this was just yesterday.

Well, on November 15 mackenzie had her birthday party. She wanted to go swimming. I was able to rent a room and open swim time for her party at one of the local schools. All of the schools around have pools, but the one we went to has a kids pool and a competition pool. There's water shoots, a slide, and a basketball hoop to play with while you swim. She was also allowed to invite a few friends from school and most of her cousins were able to come too. All of the kids had a great time.

GG and Aubt Taylor made a very cool Elsa dress cupcake cake. And it tasted delishious too!

And I put together a spread of frozen themed foods.

She got a bunch of new presents also. And she loved every minute of it!

I love that look of surprise and joy on her face when she opened the present she asked for!

She was invited to a princess for a day party at one of the local churches to take place that night also. All of the girls got their hair, makeup, and nails done. They got to color, make a craft, and have frozen themed snacks. And finally, they got to meet Elsa!

Yesterday was her actual birthday. I decorated the house a bit while she was sleeping. She woke up very surprised! I even made a streamer curtain and hung it in front of her door that she had to walk through. She said, "mommy, that is sooo cool!" Marty made the kids pancakes for breakfast. And I took them to church. She even got to decide if she wanted to go on her birthday. I'm happy to say it was her choice to go. She asked for homemade nachos for dinner and marty and I made her a cake. And of course the few presents from mom and dad.
