The Big 5

So Lila got not just 1 but 2 birthday parties this year.  I had originally planned a family party up in Logan but Lila wanted a party with some of her preschool friends.  Fortunately she was content with just inviting a few girls and we put together a little tea party.  Per Lila the theme this year was to be mermaids but pretty much anything princess like still made her happy.

The second and larger party took place up in Logan at the Johnson's backyard.  Their yard is big enough that it essentially feels like a park.  All the cousins came over and we barbecued hamburgers and chicken.  Lila was "spoiled good" as her Grandma Johnson puts it and came home with a trunk full of presents.  She also requested that she graduate from the balance bike and so we got her a real bike that she is currently working on learning how to ride.
