Preschool Graduation

 Her class sang "I Just Can't Wait to Be King" from Lion King.  It's a tricky song so we downloaded it and listened to it in the car for weeks.  She would never sing it and I thought it was because she didn't know it.  Then she told me it was because she didn't want me to hear her until the actual show.  And she belted it out at the program!

 Reesi wanted to get some graduate attention too!

Our Little Gymnast

 Elye started gymnastics this past school year.  She is always bouncing around on her tip toes so a friend told me she should be a gymnast and apparently she was right.  She perfected the cartwheel before she even started gymnastics and has done great this whole year.  At the end of the school year she was asked to be on the Hot Shot Team for the summer.  She did so well this summer she is the only one from the team that is being asked to move up to the Mini Mights team, which is an extra half hour a week.



Easter

 She had been coveting this bunny from the toy store for weeks.  
 Handy Dandy Poo-porri for Reesi.  You spray it in the toilet before doing your business and it masks the smell.  




Birthday with the Grandparents

We celebrated at Meemaws.




 Flashing her money from Granny
 She Loved her American Girl Doll from Meemaw and Terri.
 Egg Hunt

Her actual birthday morning we celebrated with candles in a waffle for breakfast.
 We celebrated with Poppy and Cat at Las Palmas.


Ignore Reesi's crazy hair.  She had her hair braided all crazy so she could sleep in it and have waves the next morning.  She tried to cover it up with a baseball cap!

Happy Fifth Birthday Elye!

I cannot believe my baby is five, but she is.  We moved into our house on a Friday and had her birthday party on Saturday.  Since we definitely weren't ready to celebrate at our house, we had it at her gymnastics place.  She had a blast bouncing around with all her friends and cousins.  Her favorite part was being the center of attention!
