ASHLEE IS 5!!!

I can't believe our little girl turned 5 last week!! She is getting so big I can hardly believe it! She had such a fun birthday. The weekend of her birthday all of my family came down to visit. They got to come see me dance in the ballet "Cindrella" and celebrate Ashlee's birthday. We went to Melissa and Kelly's condo in St. George. It was great. We were wishing for a little warmer weather, but we still had a blast.

Ashlee happens to share a birthday with her cousin Genavieve, they were able to celebrate together as well.

A few days later we had Ashlee's first real birthday party. She was so excited! We had the girls dress up like princesses and took them to Evan hair college here in Cedar. They were treated just like princesses! They got to get their nails and hair done. All the girls LOVED it! Then we came home and had rainbow cupcakes and ice cream, played twister, and opened presents. Each girl got to leave with a little treat bag and a sugar cookie wand. It was a great party!

ASHLEE'S DANCE RECITAL

In December Ashlee had her first dance recital. She did so great!! I was very proud of her. I acutally have the opportunity to be her dance teacher. I was a little nervous at first, because I didn't know how well she would listen to me as her teacher instead of mom. However, she has done very well at separating the two. She even calls me teacher in class instead of mom. We have had a lot of fun together. Ashlee is actually quite the performer. I was afraid that she was going to be nervous and just stand there. But she loved it. Ashlee's entire class did such a great job. They did a tap dance to the song Jingle Bell Rock.
