Annalise's 5th Birthday!!!

It's hard to believe our sassy, hilarious, sweet little Annalise is 5!

She will graduate from preschool in a few weeks and start Kindergarten in the fall!  

We went to Lake Chelan for the weekend....what a cool place!!!

This was the view out our condo....

We got there on Thursday evening....then on Friday, we had some time to walk 

over to the city park to play....

We also had a chance to cruise down Main Street and meet the locals....

Grams, Gramps, Auntie Robin and Uncle Geoff all arrived Friday afternoon to help celebrate, too!!

We had some pool time.....(the slide was AWESOME!)

And the hot tub "grotto" was SUPER AWESOME!

 

 

Annalise opened all of her birthday presents.....she felt SO special!!!!

 

How did everyone know exactly what she wanted?!?!?!?!?  Wow!!!!

 We had a great weekend in Chelan celebrating Annalise.

Unfortunately her ACTUAL birthday was on Sunday when we had to drive home....

but she took the day in stride.  

We started the day with a walk to town for breakfast....

she chose Cheetos and apple juice.  And really....why wouldn't she?!

We got all packed up and she buckled in her new BFF Sadie next to her in the car.....

We stopped for lunch in Leavenworth with Uncle Geoff and Auntie Robin.....

Then she got her choice of restaurant for dinner.  She chose Ferndale's own Chihuahua's.  

(She calls it CHICK-A-WAH-WAH's).  

I don't think she was AT ALL prepared for the sombrero and birthday song......

She stared at them with a straight face throughout the entire song.

(But admitted to us later that she actually liked it! ;) )

Oh our little Annalise....so full of life and she brings so much joy and laughter to ours.

She is a delight and we love her so very much!!!

Happy 5th Birthday Sweet Pea!
