Happy Birthday, Emma!

Our sweet, sweet Emma has turned 5! It's so hard to believe... She's growing up so quickly.

When we asked her what kind of cake she wanted, she said, "A butterfly cake." So I asked if she wanted a flower-shaped cake with butterflies on it or a cake with a big butterfly on it and she picked the big butterfly, so that's what I made. :)
As is our tradition, the kids made her a beautiful banner

And Olivia enhanced the whole room with litle hearts, flowers and butterflies on the walls.

Emma's one big gift was to go to a 3-day Snow Princess Dance Camp.
The camp was for 3- to 5-year olds and focused more on gross motor movements than the finer points of dance. So they did big arm movements,
skipping,
making themselves a snowball,
and then a snowflake.
(I'm not sure what this was besides an ab workout...:)
They swayed
and hopped
and ran around and froze when the music stopped.
Then they twirled
and played with the parachute.
Our sweet Snow Princess!
