I can't believe this sweet girl is already five. Time sure is flying by and she is growing up and enjoying the benefits of being older. Eliza has such fun sense of humor and there are days I am laughing so hard with her. She is a good older sister and younger sister. She is always up for a good time but, at the same time she will be totally honest with you if she doesn't want to do something. ( she is a lot like her Dad!) She is not about doing things that are necessarily popular. She has her own opinion and doesn't think twice about what others think. She has a strong spirit and will do great and wonderful things in the future!
On Sunday, we had Grandma and Grandpa Young and Grandma and Grandpa Schwitzer over for a birthday dinner and cake. Eliza wanted a heart shaped cake this year.
The morning of her actual birthday she opened gifts from Mom and Dad.
She wanted this Cinderella carriage.
We went out to dinner that night and she chose the Spaghetti Factory...Good choice girl!!
After we went to Trafalga and rode on rides, played mini golf, and climbed the rock wall. It was a fun perfect evening.
On Friday, she had a princess and prince party with friends.. her cousins! Eliza is so lucky to have so many cousins her age. 2 on the young side were even missing. We had Ryan, Parker, Hayden, Brad, Sydney, Leah, and Claire. She gets along with all her cousins and at times enjoys being with her boy cousins more than her girl cousins!
We made crowns, played a princess and the pea game, had a royal ball, and went on a dragon hunt! After they all just wanted to play outside on the tramp.
Cute little Brad was the perfect prince!
Eliza's best friends, though, are right in this picture. She loves Sydney, Leah, and Claire and would pick hanging out with them over anyone else.
We love you Eliza and had a fun week celebrating you!!
