Grandma Kerri's Jewelry Box Cake
Wow! This cake was incredible. Mom said it only took 3 cans of frosting. (I think). She even found candy necklaces and rings to go into the jewelry box. She's so creative.

I can't believe Aliyah is six already. She is such a big girl. It is hard to believe Kindergarten in almost over. When asked if she wanted a small party at a special place or a bigger party at our house she wanted more people to come and opted for our house. She's a social butterfly. We are looking forward to her spring play coming up in May. She already knows all of the words to the songs. She was excited to get her unicorn overnight bag, a beautiful princess dress, cute clothes, two lockets, and games. Click on this photo to see more pictures on my flicker account.
The Kids Worship team preformed at Easter Eggstravaganza in the sprinkling rain. Aliyah and Elyse had come to help me for an hour with painting faces. I felt bad because they had missed out on games and bouncy toys because I took so long. Pastor Shawn and Pastor Joel hooked the crying pregnant lady up with free pony rides off the leash and a private bouncy session in the sanctuary for the girls. The girls enjoyed the egg hunt but didn't get any prizes.
Over Spring Break we enjoyed a fun trip to the zoo. Everyone else in Pierce County decided to go the same day. It was gorgeous. Nicole and Hans met Grandma and I at the zoo. We had all of the girls with us plus Andrea met us there with her girls. It was a lot of fun. I'm sure there will be many more zoo trips to come.
We really enjoyed our time at the ladies retreat. I ended up getting my own bed. Nobody wanted to sleep with the pregnant lady. We enjoyed an early dinner at Anthony's and a lot of fun together. After the retreat Karla, Michele, and I went shopping in Gig Harbor.
It took Aliyah about a month to get her first loose tooth out. She was not excited about our help and eventually wouldn't let us touch her mouth. She had a dentist appointment and we thought they would pull it but they said to just let it come out naturally. We had her eat lots of apples but it didn't come out as quickly as we had hoped. Her second tooth came out much faster. She just used her tongue to push it out up in Daddy's office after school one day.
