Birthday party fun

Aurora had a great snake birthday party! With some superheroes thrown in there too. We had an amazing animal show from the good people at Animal Trax.

Aurora was able to hold snakes, tarantulas, scorpions, and feed a tortoise. The party was wonderful!

Jasmin made a great cake and set of cupcakes for Aurora.

Snake like and DELICIOUS!

Super Hero capes and they are ready to go!

 

Happy Birthday to Aurora

I am the mother to a brilliant, beautiful, sassy little five year old girl. She is smart and confident and asks great questions. She reads books about snakes, helps to cook in the kitchen, and plays super hero games with the kids on the playground. She loves lions and tigers and snakes and dragons. And I a do proud that she is in my life every day, happy birthday to my sweet sweet Aurora.


It was a good day today with Aurora. She went to school and shared Oreos with her class and got to wear a crown in class! After school we came home and had Riley (the boy) come over to play. We went to the movies to see Paranorman. Aurora had a great time sharing popcorn with him!

When we got home the table was covered in birthday cards for Aurora! She loved opening them all! Next we got to talk on the webcam to Grammie and Granddad as Aurora opened the presents they sent!

Aurora's birthday continues tomorrow, with the party and a live reptile show! what fun!
There will be more pictures tomorrow!

This is the last WW of my sweet four year old.

Wednesday Wardrobe 2012 – 35

Perfectly purple!

Manners, Grammar, and Awesome.

This morning Aurora wrote a thank you note to her teacher for allowing her to borrow a book. We worked hard to write the words. At the end of the note that read "Miss Thomason thank you for letting me borrow your wolves book" Aurora decided she did not want to write book.
We had a long conversation about how her note read that Ms. Thomason had wolves for her to borrow instead of books and that was not right... but it would be awesome.

It's Friday, I know. Sorry. Friday is school spirit day at Aurora's school. They are the rainbow rockets! On the way to school aurora was reading her comic book.
"zuh ah puh" she said. "momma! I read zap!! Z-A-P zap!"
She's a smart girl! I'm so blessed to have her in my life.
