Happy 5th Birthday EVA!

Friday April 16th was Evy's 5th birthday. I can't believe our little girl is already five! Of course now She's soooo grown up. Well her super special fun birthday weekend started thursday after noon when she got a "beautiful" birthday card in the mail from Grandma and Grandpa Wilson in Utah. She was so happy about it that she slept with it all night. Then Friday morning she got to open a "birthday outfit" first thing in the morning so she felt very pretty. Then when Daddy got home from school we went to the mall and took her to the "girly" store (Claire's) and got her ear's pierced! She's been asking to get her ears "peer-ed" for about a year and we kept saying no. Then Thursday Dave came home and thought how fun it would be to take her there and surprise her for her birthday so thats what we did.She wanted to get the biggest adult sized diamond studs that they had but we talked her into the biggest kid-sized ones and they're pretty cute. She was so brave she didn't even cry! they did both ears at the same time and it really surprised her cuz it pinched a bit but no tears ( they were pretty close. . . see the pic) She loves them so much and has been showing them to everyone ( even random strangers in stores-- we are working on that one though)
After we did her ears we took her to dinner and of course she picked Pizza Hut ( I'm pretty sure this is the 3rd year in a row), after dinner we red boxed Chipmunk Adventure ( they didn't have any girlier cartoons) and went home and watched it as a family. She felt pretty special as she got calls from lots of aunts and uncles and grandparents, even Krista from Ecuador!
After the kids went to bed I finished making Tu-tu's and the castle cake for the BIG PARTY saturday afternoon. What a fun day and a beautiful sweet little princess. We love her so much and are so grateful she's part of our family!
