Brooklyn is 5...

My Brooklyn turned 5 this year. So this year we decided that it would be fun to have a friend party for her. 5 is a big age in my opinion and thought it was time to throw her first little friend party! She was so excited when I asked her about it, and what she thought her "theme" should be. A baking party was the perfect fit for my little cook. Brooklyn has always been the biggest helper when it comes to cleaning and cooking, so we thought this would be so fun!
We had all but 2 friends come so we had a total of 12! I am glad I had my favorite helpers around to help me! We had pizza for the kids, they got to decorate their own cupcakes and take them home in these cute little boxes I found. They played "pin the candle on the cupcake", and had a pinata. Brooklyn was so spoiled by her friends and got some very fun presents. After the kids had donuts and played for a bit. I am glad Brooklyn had such a good turnout, I was actually worried because of the snow but it was perfect!
It's also New Year's Eve so later that day we had our families over for cake and Brooklyn got some great gifts from them as well!
Happy Birthday my sweetie, we hope you had a great day! Love you!

Year end catch up...

As much as I've tried, I can never seem to post about our holiday right after it happens. This year especially! We decided to let Brooklyn have a friend party (coming soon), so after all of the Christmas fun we had to get ready for that. Here is a little review of more of the fun we had in December!

Making cookies, always a tradition we do come any holiday time. The last few years we have had Faythe and Hayley over and it had been fun for the girls to do



Made gingerbread house with my girls & the Buckley boys!

Family parties & Christmas Eve

Christmas Day spent with family

This was one of my most memorable Christmas's. I hope you all had as great as a holiday as I did!
