Horse riding!

I'm really enjoying my horse riding lessons!

Mummy's birthday!

Just as my birthday celebrations were waning, it was mummy's turn today as she became 33 years old! She got lots of lovely presents and had a nice relaxing day. I played Frozen Top Trumps with daddy before, much to her surprise, we brought mummy's cake in and sang the Happy Birthday song.

Today I am 5!

The day had finally arrived! Today was my actual birthday! I leapt out of bed excitedly and we headed downstairs to open my presents. I was delighted to see lots of lovely parcels all wrapped in colourful paper. My Anna and Elsa dolls were even there I think to not only present them in the morning but also to keep guard until we'd come downstairs! Thanks Anna & Elsa, and good job!

I got some amazing presents including, of course, lots of Frozen goodies including a new Frozen toothbrush, a play set with figures, an Elsa hairdressing doll and of course lots of stickers. There was also a Barbie nail set as well as a new reading book for my Leapreader pen, and a baby Annabelle doll who cries real tears! So many amazing presents - I feel so lucky!

At school I had to go up to the front whilst everyone was singing Happy Birthday to me. Bit embarrassing but it also made me feel quite special. This has been the best birthday ever!

When we got home we had a little tea party and my friends from school (the two Evies!) and family! What a great day and it feels great to be 5!

My amazing Frozen birthday party!

It was two days before my actual birthday but it was a beautiful, sunny, Spring afternoon in Earsdon and we were gathered in the community centre with my friends & family to celebrate me turning 5. As all the mums & dads took their seats us kids were busy playing with the balloons scattered around the hall when all of a sudden, there was knock at the door...

"Do you wanna build a snowmaaaaan?", cried the voice on the other side of the door. I recognised the voice, but it couldn't be... could it? It was!

It was Princess Anna & Queen Elsa! And they'd come all the way from Arendelle to come to my birthday party!

They explained they've travelled here especially to come to my birthday party and Elsa gave me her coronation crown as a special gift! We all got our faces painted before we sat round in a big circle and started playing some party games.

Then a big snowball fight broke out! Anna and Elsa were even throwing snowballs at each other!

Elsa then realised in all the excitement she'd lost her glove! We all hunted round the room frantically trying to find it - we didn't want everything to be turned to ice...

Luckily the glove was located and we were able to continue. Phew! Anna and Elsa started singing and asked us all to sing along. We sang all the favourites from the film and even had some snow fall when we sang Let It Go!

I'm totally harmonising with Queen Elsa here!

We needed a little bit of a rest after all the singing so Anna and Elsa sat us all down to read us a couple of stories. One was called, "A Sister More Like Me" which taught us that even if we're all different from one another that's a good thing. It's what's different about each of us that makes us all special.

And Anna & Elsa brought me some special presents for my birthday; some lovely colouring pictures, a tiara, some lip gloss, as well as some ear rings. So thoughtful, those two! :)

Anna and Elsa even brought my my birthday cake and sang me Happy Birthday, before I blew the candle out. This was the best day ever!

Lovely to have the chance to have some photos taken with my new best friends!

After we had a chance to have some nice photos taken with Anna & Elsa we headed next door to have some party food. We had some special treats lined up including some gorgeous cup cakes that auntie Kirsty made.

We even had snowman arms, snowman noses, snowman buttons and snowballs, as well as bottles of melted snowman! And not forgetting nanna's lovely sandwiches, and Dot's scrummy sausage rolls! What a treat!

Unfortunately it was soon time for Anna and Elsa to head back to Arendelle but they just had time to drop in to wave goodbye, and before they left I brought them a cup cake each, and a bottle of melted snowman for their journey home.

It was so lovely to see Princess Anna and Queen Elsa and it was incredible that they could make it to my birthday party! At times I felt a bit overwhelmed I think but they made me feel so special! A day I'll never forget! x

Getting excited for my birthday party!

Tonight I've mostly been filling the party bags for my friends ahead of my forthcoming 5th birthday party on Sunday!

Like my new glasses?

They're not really my new glasses - they're Lori's old glasses, but I thought they made me look really studious. What do you reckon?

Bowling for hotdogs

Had great fun tonight when we went bowling at Starbowl - daddy and mummy each got a "strike" which was really exciting, and Lori and I did well with our bowling and we knocked loads of the pins down. We had a hotdog each, bowled, had great fun, and of course I fell asleep in the car on the way home. Long day :)

If we were a band this would be our first album cover...

Knock 'em down mummy!

Off it goes!

Lori rifles one down the lane!

Little help..?

Like my hairstyle for school?

Hey hey,

What do you reckon? Mummy did my hair differently today for school, after my bath. Not bad eh? :-)
