Chloe Turns 5

With Chloe turning the big 5 this year we had a big friend party.  We called it Pink and Purple Princess Pool Party.  We invited her primary class and their siblings to come and swim and make princess crafts and eat, you guess it, pink and purple cupcakes.  Everyone had a good time and Chloe loved having everyone come and celebrate with her.  We had to do it a week early because of the big trip we had planned for July and August.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

She loved everything she got.

Chloe turned 5 on July 1, while we were driving across the country as fast as we could.  Dad even got pulled over that morning and Chloe gave us and the officer a little start by rolling down her window, just as the officer was getting ready to walk away, and announcing that today was her birthday.  You could tell he was pretty startled at first because it is not usually a good thing for the back window to come down when an officer stops someone, but after Chloe made her announcement he wished her a happy birthday and sent us on our way with just a warning to slow down. 

Chloe was very excited to get to celebrate part of her birthday in a hotel. 

She got Barbies,

mermaids,

and a unicorn!!!  Just like she always wanted.

We love our Little Sis.  She always sees the wonder and beauty in everything.  She goes into every situation believing that everyone is her friend and that usually turns out to be true because she is so friendly and loving.  We are so happy to have Chloe in our family.

We LOVE you CHLOE!!!
