Megan turned five today! She is so grown up, and yet still my baby. We had a big party this past sunday. She Ask for a bounce house and all her friends, cupcakes and balloons. The theme was Groovy Girls which is a doll line. We had a really great time. I made appetizers and salad, Jack made the cupcakes with home made candy flowers, and then we had Pizza from a local place. We had a great turn out too.

We made her wait to open all her gifts till today. (well there were 2 exceptions)

Then each day this week, we done something birthday celebratory. On Monday during dance class she got to open another gift, from a friend who'd missed the party. Wednesday we met a friend at the park and she got to open another present. We also went to Borders and picked out a Book to donate in Megan's name to her class room on her birthday.

And then today - she woke up early and climbed into my bed, we cuddled while Jack and I sang her "Happy Birthday" We had a quiet morning, a little home work, etc, and got dressed and readied her for picture day at school. While she was in school, I baked some cookies, and when I picked her up I brought her a balloon and we headed off to meet Play group at the park. When we came home, she opened all her gifts, and then headed off to Megan's choice for dinner - Sushi! Jack had gone ahead of time and dropped off a small cake and the restaurant lady went out and got another balloon so our birthday girl was officially spoiled!

Tomorrow - we have a halloween party, Saturday the Un-Haunted house at our local nature center, So the festivities will continue.
