McKenzie's Alphabet Parade

Friday, McKenzie had her alphabet parade at school. Every child was given a letter and they had to dress up as that letter and then they had a parade. It was super fun and the costumes were fantastic! McKenzie was given the letter Q. So, she dressed up as a queen. She has tons of princess dresses so at first she wanted to use her Cinderella dress as her "Queen" dress. However, after thinking about it longer she came to me and asked if she could wear the dress she wore in Uncle Steve and Aunt Maggie's wedding. So, that was the dress she decided on for her Queen dress and she looked adorable!

McKenzie's 5 Year Well Check

McKenzie had her 5 year well check last week and is doing great!  No shots... that was the best part!  She is healthy and growing like a little weed.  She is still very tall and full of life.  She loves to paint and do art projects and is very creative.  I had her conference at school and her teacher said she is doing great!  We are getting ready for kindergarten!  I can't even believe how fast the time is coming for that. 

McKenzie's Stats:
Weight: 45 lbs (81%)
Height: 46 1/2 inches (98%)

We are blessed with happy, healthy children!

Spring Break - Destin, Florida

Last Sunday we left for the beach for Spring Break. We went to Destin and had a great time. McKenzie turned 5 on Tuesday the 9th and she was so excited to spend her real birthday at the beach! MG and LJ loved the sand. The water was freezing so we didn't get in but the sand was tons of fun and the pool was heated so that was nice. We can home on Thursday. It was a nice little vacation!

Donuts for breakfast on the balcony!

Doc McKenzie

Last Saturday we celebrated McKenzie's 5th birthday! We had it at a jumping place in town. It was lots of fun and very easy. We can't believe she is 5!  McKenzie loves the show on Disney called Doc McStuffins so that is what her party theme was this year. 

Her cake was amazing both to look at and taste!

All ready for the party!  McKenzie with her Doc shirt and Landon wore Stuffy!

McKenzie's Birthday Party at School

Today was McKenzie's birthday party at her school! Landon and I got to go in at snack time and take a cookie cake and gold fish. It was so fun! McKenzie was so excited! I can't believe she is about to be 5! How did that happen so quickly?
 

Since it was McKenzie's day to celebrate her birthday she got to wear the whale vest all day.  She is in the whale class and that means that she is the special helper of the day because she has the vest on!
