Hinarei's Birthday Party!!

We had such a fun time celebrating Hinarei's 5th birthday. I can't believe my baby girl is 5!! She is sure growing way too fast.

This is Hinarei's poster for preschool

We had so much fun doing it.

Hinarei wanted to me to read one of her favorite books "Pinkalicious"

Enjoying Maman's cup cake

Party Favors "flip flop" for the girls and "spiderman" stickers for the boys!

Hinarei wanted a princess cake so I made her one. Not bad for someone who is not a baker.

My little princess. Love her petti skirt!

The Happy Birthday Girl!

Picking up candies from the pinata! Thanks Lynette for helping.

Hinarei's friends!

My dear friend Erin had her baby shower last month. She is having a boy! She's almost due and I can't wait to see her little bundle of joy.

End of Preschool!!

The end of preschool is near and I can tell you Hinarei loved going to preschool with her little friend Madelyn. Her teacher Miss Michelle is an amazing teacher I wish Hinarei could get a teacher just like her in Kindergarten. We are sure going to miss her a lot.
She gave all the children a CD with photos of them she compiled throughout the whole year. She is truly an amazing teacher. Love it!

I just love that girl so much.

My little preschooler is now ready to go to Kindergarten next fall. I'm a little choked up!!

Cute.

Ready to sing! They did such a good job. The songs were awesome!! Hinarei said her part very well "February was dino-mite. We learned all about dinosaurs and Terex was our favorite."

"I'm Singing in the Rain"

Okay Hinarei practiced all week for her first dance competition ever. She was so excited. She knew all the dance move. She really got pumped up until the day of the competition arrived. I put her dance outfit on, put on some makeup and loved every moment of it until she saw the crowd in the gym area and froze. She did not want to go dance. She stayed with her team before the performance and I thought she would get over it but at the very end she did not want to go and perform. Poor thing!! Thank you Lynette for trying and being there for her, you are awesome!! Oh well at least I got a picture of her in her cute outfit!! However my friends daughters did an amazing job, way to go Lydia, Madelyn and Brielle!! You girls ROCK!! Plus a lot of people wore blue to support our team so Legacy Dance won the Spirit Award 3rd year in the row, so yeah for pizza!! To top it all Hinarei Dance Teamates won 1st place in their category even better!!! Congratulations!!!
