A "Big" Mermaid Birthday

When asked what kind of birthday party Bel wanted this year she replied "Ariel". I was excited that she had something in mind. My response was that I love "Little Mermaid". She replied, "No, not little. Big Mermaid". *Sigh* Why do they want to grow up so fast?

My little gorgeous girl is four years old today. Hard to believe considering she's now the same age Lex was when she was born! How crazy is that? I cherish these days and do what I can while they still want me to. Hopefully as they grow older, they'll still let me be a party-planning mom, but you never know. Most kids go through mom/dad-independent phases. So, here are pictures from her party. I went with a turquoise/lime/hot pink color theme for her mermaid party. It was a lot of fun to do and already know what to do next year!

Glorious food...

She made a wish right before she blew out her candles.

About Me

My photo
Shane and I met my senior year of high school in 1996 and were married in 2000. It's just crazy to think we've known each other for more than a decade and still learn new things about each other. We both graduated from the University of Utah. I have a degree in Finance and Shane has a degree in Biology. We are both enjoying jobs in our respective fields. Our favorite thing to do is travel. Before we started a family, we spent two weeks in Europe touring Italy, Germany, Switzerland, and France. We want to see the world and hopefully take our children along with us when they are older. Our children are our life. Alexander "Lex" is our little man at 7 years old. He loves to try lots of new things. He's currently enrolled in soccer, tumbling & boys' hip hop. Isabel (or Bel as Shane likes to call her) is 3 1/2 years old. She is also enrolled in tumbling & dance. All in all, life is wonderful and we couldn't be happier.
