Allie turned 6 on Tuesday. I still can't believe that she is already 6 years old!! Where did those 6 years go?? And to think that she will start Kindergarten in just a couple of weeks!
Allie was excited to start her big day by opening a few gifts while sitting on our bed right away in the morning. Since Scott typically isn't able to be home to see gift opening, we've changed it to first thing in the morning...who wouldn't want gifts right away??
We went to the Teddy Bear Connection for a little party with Allie's friends. Each child got to make a stuffed animal. Allie chose to make a unicorn, which turned out pretty cute. Each child made a necklace for their animal, they got to dance to to the Hokey Pokey, eat cupcakes & open more gifts. Allie really enjoyed herself & I think her friends did too.
The birthday child always picks a spot for dinner. Allie chose her favorite restaurant, Carlos O Kelley's. We had a nice late dinner & headed on home.
Allie is ready to open her birthday gifts.

WEBKINZ
Allie got a Webkinz for her birthday from her friend Jordyn. Jake & Allie have become Webkinz crazy!! They go online each day to care for their virtual pet by feeding, dressing, playing with it & so on. They earn "webkinz dollars" by "working" & playing various games. It has become an obsession here!!

WATERPARK
We spent the other day at the waterpark. We met my roommate from college Stacy & her girls. It was great visiting with her...it seems like we can always pick up right where we left off & we only are able to see each every couple of years. It is nice to have those kinds of friends...where the years, miles & different lives don't matter!
