She is finally 5!!!

Sweet Addi has been waiting FOREVER to turn 5.  There's something about having to use your entire hand to show how old you are that is pretty neat. 

Party 1:

We started the celebration a week early at Grandma and Grandpa Jones' house.  Addi was ready for the party to begin!

Grandpa doing "heavy, heavy, hangover" - it's a fun Jones tradition

Grandma gave her some silly string for her birthday.  She LOVED it!

Party 2:

And this birthday was extra special because we had my sister and her kids visiting from Nebraska.  So the celebration lasted the entire week!

Addi wanted to go bowling for her birthday, so that's what we did! :-)

It was so fun to see my nephew for the first time!  He was the cutest thing ever and I didn't want to stop holding him!

Party 3:

My parents got Addi the cutest decorated cookies and cupcake.  I didn't take a picture of them but the other cookies were decorated as little princesses.  So fun!

Addi is our St. Patrick's day baby and we also celebrated my niece's birthday that was just a couple of days later.

My sister made the most amazing chocolate chip cookie dough cake from SCRATCH!  Yeah, let's just say I gained about 5 lbs. while she was here!

2 candles and 1 cake

Tyler said the kids would do this when he was serving his mission in Mexico and I absolutely love it!  And my niece was all about it!  She was just digging right in!

                     

HAPPY BIRTHDAY ADDI!!!

WE LOVE YOU!!!
