Pre-School Graduation

So, Sydney has "graduated" from pre-school. Travis and I were talking about the whole idea of graduating pre-school. Don't get me wrong, it's fun for the kids, but it's like saying..."Good job! You turned another year older, let's have a graduation". We just think it's funny that now-a-days they have a graduation from pre-school, kindergarten, elementary school, middle school and highschool. "Back in my day......" we only had high school graduation. I'm so old. haha.

We got some really cute pics of Sydney singing. This first one is a favorite of mine. Getting her "diploma" - which was a stuffed animal. These are her teachers announcing that Sydney wants to be a veterinarian when she grows up.

Addyson ran up there to give her a hug. It was really sweet.

Her school party. She's talking to Adam, who introduced her to Star Wars....he always wanted her to be Princess Leia, and now she's obsessed!

Sydney's 5th birthday

I'm so behind on my blog!

Sydney turned 5 on May 5th! I can't believe it!!! She had her horse party on May 2nd, and then we had a small family party on her birthday. I made a cake for the party, one for her birthday dinner and cupcakes for her class at school on her birthday. I was caked-out!!! BUT, she had a blast that week, and I have to say, so did I.

This is the cake I made for her actual birthday.

This one was for her party. I had to make a really big one to feed 40 people at least, so it was actually 4 cakes all together. There was a cute fence of pretzels around the "pasture", but it got knocked over. Oh well!!! Sydney liked it, so that's all that matters!

Happy Birthday sweet girl!

Sydney is such a joy in our lives. She is funny, smart, creative, dramatic, girly, tom-boyish, loud, full of energy, sweet, caring, helpful, silly, and just so darn cute.
