5!

My little girl turned 5 last week.  I guess I have another year or so that she will be a 'little' girl before she turns school age.  I love how smart and sweet and caring she has grown to be.  

We celebrated her 5th birthday at Lake Byllesby Regional Park.  The day was perfect.  Thanks to everyone who came to make the day special for her.  

This picture is appropriate for the theme of the day.  

Meredith's Great Aunt Shirley (and Great Uncle Don) came up to visit for the weekend since her Grandma and Grandpa Carlson were in town.  

Here are just a few more pictures of the birthday girl.  

Meredith's Great Uncle Robin (and Great Aunt Irene also came).  

Not a great picture, but here are the cousins!
