December 4th - Happy 5th Birthday Katelyn!!

This is a picture of Katelyn going to bed on December 3rd - her last night of being 4 years old.

As she slept, I decorated the kitchen with items from Green Lantern. She loves superheroes and especially loves Green Lantern. She insisted on a Green Lantern birthday party.

Katelyn is 5 years old!

Katelyn's birthday party with her friends was actually on her real birthday. She wanted a superhero birthday party at Pump It Up.

Katelyn's Class Birthday Celebration - December 2nd

Katelyn's 5th birthday is on December 4th. Two days before, her class celebrate her birthday. On this day, she was able to wear any outfit, not her school uniform. Here she is with a few classmates before school started on this day.

Upon entering the classroom, the kids always sit and read books initially to get their day started.

Time to celebrate in class. The birthday girls gets to wear this flower tiara.

The candle on the table represents the sun. Katelyn's teacher had Katelyn walked the Earth around the candle for each year of Katelyn's life. While Katelyn did so, I read about Katelyn for that particular year.
