Raegan Is FIVE!!!

Happy Birthday to my little sweetie! On Wednesday, August 19th Raegan was officially 5 years-old! She told me she felt older. She has been asking me day after day if it was her birthday yet...well, it was finally here. She is our youngest daughter and definitely keeps our family full of life.
On the morning of her birthday, daddy made her "little pancakes". She loves when daddy makes them. (So do I, yum!) You can tell she just woke up...love the bed head! But waking up at 6am is the pits! (I miss summer sleepin days!)


For Birthday dinner she chose macaroni and ravioli...go figure! At school the teacher had a crown that she was able to wear all day long. As you can see, she's still wearing it even to dinner! One side note, I had her doctors appointment during the day and she got 2 shots, she was soo brave!

To celebrate, Raegan had a little party the Saturday following her birthday. To keep things simple, I let her invite 3 friends: Natalie Adams, Hailey Marler, and Mia Pierson and Tarin came along. I took them all Glow Golfing at the local bowling alley. Wow, I wasn't ready for what followed. The first hole I tried to show them how to hold their club and hit the ball...yeah right! Let's just say I was glad the place wasn't busy...I just let them run around and play. Eventually they would put their balls down and try a hole or two, but otherwise running around in the dark and black light and climbing on the obsticals was entertainment enough. Tarin later mentioned to me that she would like to go back and actually golf. It's amazing what one year difference can make.

For lunch I took them all to McDonalds. They are so cute all together.

Afterwards, back home for cake and gifts.

Raegan, I'm looking forward to your new year as the big 5! Love you sweetie!
