Happy 5th Birthday, Anne!

Anne turned 5 on the 5th of this July. What a joyful little girl.  She of course loves Frozen, and loves swimming, playing dolls, and riding the EZ Roller with her neighbor friend.  I love when she opens her eyes so wide when she's excited or very interested in something, and her big blues shine through.  She plays well with kids her own age and those older & younger.  We spent the day around home and she wanted to have an Ariel party & cake, Pizza Hut, and swimming.  She got a cool new unicorn bike helmet, a new Ariel mermaid, books, clothes, and more.  It was a wonderful day to celebrate her.

It's been a while...

So Lissy is making me feel bad -- she's updated her blog.  Guess I need to get on it.  It's not that I don't think about it, it's just hard to find a free minute.  Always something else jumps in front of it, and then by evening, I'm just not ready to START on something after the kids are finally in bed (which in summer is pretty late these days).  Maybe I can set a goal to start updating --- I really don't want to let all the memories slip away, but sometimes it may happen.  We'll see.  I do have pictures, so maybe I'll start with that.
