When Natalie turned 5 and was undoubtably a princess

We celebrated Natalie’s 5th birthday on the 19th. Natalie got all kinds of great presents and cards. I got her tickets to Disney on Ice, which I'll blog about later. The birthday boy/girl in our family gets to choose all the day’s meals, so we had waffles, Pasta-Roni, and clam chowder with homemade bread bowls. Grandma and Grandpa joined us for dinner and dessert. Of course, Natalie wanted both cupcakes and cake for her birthday.





We’ve been slacking off the last few years and haven’t given Natalie a proper birthday party, so we repented and gave her a Princess party this year on Saturday, the 24th. Her friends, Lanie, Taylor, Vivian, Kamrie, and Monet got to dress up as princesses and color princess pictures and make princess crowns and play Pin Cinderella on the Castle. Then, we had cake and ice cream and opened presents. Natalie is one spoiled little girl. She got princess Barbies, a ballerina Barbie, a princess puzzle, watercolors and princess pictures to color, and a butterfly necklace and rings. And that’s not including all the presents from family!




We had a birthday dinner with the family on the Nov. 1st for Liz and Natalie. It was a ditto of Joe and John’s birthday dinner with homemade pizzas and chicken wings. Yummy as always!
