Never, Neverland...

Although she thinks she's already a teenager, our Ellie turned 5.
Ellie (Wendy) had a wonderful birthday party back in January. (I'm finally uploading this post which has been saved as a draft...) She invited all her cousins since we have this precious time with them before we move again. We woke up to a over a foot of snow, so we moved it from the Sandy Institute of Religion (where my dad works) to our church building.
We finally made it and got set up, and then had a really fun party! We had a craft in Mermaid Lagoon, jumping in the Lost Boys Hide Out (my sisters bounce house),
Homemade Pizza for lunch (thanks again for all the help Mama Sou!)
and Indian Story read by Tiger Lily herself! (a.k.a my super awesome sister-in-law Nicky) in the Wigwam.
and also Indian Dancing Lessons by Tiger Lily's husband, Danny (he use to compete as an Indian dancer in the good old days.)
Flying Lessons by Tinkerbell and her assistant Grandma Soulier (Rob's mom)
and a Treasure hunt by the infamous Cap'n Hook (my nephew Mckay)
Then the present opening... Thanks for all the presents, she's loved them. :)
Of course, a party isn't a party without some chocolate caked with some more chocolate, and some other chocolate on the side.
Trevor couldn't wait until his first birthday, he found someone's peice of cake while we were cleaning up!
Thanks again to everyone who helped out!
It was a blast!
Ellie thinks of something happy while falling asleep so she won't have bad dreams, and remembering her party has been the "happy thought" she's picked since her party.
How appropriate. :)

Love day

HAPPY LOVE DAY!
