Lydia Alice's 5th birthday!

 Sunday, November 16, 2014 ~ Lydia Alice turns 5!

Hello 2015! Yes, I am blogging about November 2014... but better late than never, right? RIGHT :D

Sunday the 16th was Lydia's actual birthday, so after much debate and calling around to see what was available for a roller skating party (should have called sooner) we ended up going to Cedar Rapids to Super Skate.

Lauren & Lindsay made her feel super special on Sunday morning :) Crystal & Caroline helped out.

The birthday girl was not disappointed...


Elsa castle from Mimi & Pap...


And look at what blessed us on the night of November 15th... why of course, SNOW. :)


Girls were THRILLED as you can see :)

The main event, roller skating!

Look at Ms. Lydia... 5-yrs-old!

Here is Lauren at the age of 5 at her roller skating party in Vinton :) April 21, 2010
Lindsay at this same party at the age of 3-9months?! WHAT? Those roller skates they got the previous Christmas from Aunt Jill really helped out!

Had to throw this in... this is what Lydia looked like when Lauren turned 5 :)


Who is this 5-yr-old skating like a champ? I remember people saying... "whoa... how did the girls' learn to skate..." Now that I saw Lydia & LeaAnn give it a go, I get what those people were saying ;)

Couldn't resist :) After the party w/Mimi... Merlia the mermaid is what Lauren wanted when she was 5!

And... Lindsay Rae at her 5th birthday party in Ohio! Have ALWAYS loved this picture of her :)


Oh my, oh my... here is what Lydia & LeaAnn looked like when Lindsay turned 5!!!
Wow... look at these 4 girls! LeaAnn 3-9mo, Lindsay 8-3mo, Lauren 9-7mo & Lydia 5

Super Miles!
