5 Years Old!

On December 2nd Molly turned 5. She was so excited to catch up with her friends who turned 5 FOREVER ago in Molly time... 2-3 months ago in reality.

Here's the birthday girl first thing in the morningHere she is with her bucket of presents and her Red Rider BB gun from Daddy.

That day Molly got to take donuts for her class snack to celebrate her birthday. After school her favorite babysitter, Miranda, came over and spent a few hours at the house... and then Miranda's mom showed up for a big surprise - she took the girls to paint pottery to celebrate Molly's big day. She was SO excited to get to hang out with Miranda and her mom at the pottery place. She thought she was pretty cool!!!

Later that night we had one more surprise for Molly, we told her we had to go pick up her last present at the airport. She was so excited when she saw her Nana in baggage claim! Thank you Tirscha for flying your mom out to visit us for Molly's birthday!

Molly almost lost it when she realized that Nana made life-sized drawings of all of the Alice in Wonderland characters for her birthday party. They were amazing!!!
Trenda probably spent 20+ hours on the characters, between drawing, mounting and cutting them out! Molly told her, "You made my party AWESOME!"THANK YOU NANA!!!
