Cassidy's 5th Birthday

We started Cassidy's 5th birthday celebrations by having lunch with her in the "Fish Bowl," a special room for students and their parents to eat together in the cafeteria. She was so surprised to see Grandma, who had made the trip to Garner to celebrate with us, but stayed quiet and with her class. She even shushed Grandma who made the mistake of talking in the hallway! :)

Aunt Jennifer, Mema, and Gran joined our group for a dinner of tacos and cornbread muffins...Cassidy's request...and then we all dove into her princess birthday cake. The day was full of love and laughter and Cassidy said it was the best birthday ever. :)

Excited to see us and proud to be the line leader!

Cassidy, Mommy, and Daddy...it's hard to remember the days when it was just the three of us.

Finn was with us, too! :)
