Coraline is FIVE!


Coraline is FIVE!!
 We started her day by heading off to our homeschooling coop and they sang to her a couple times! 

My sweet friend,Millie, asked Coraline if she could go up with her so she wouldn't be nervous and so I could sit and nurse Cecily before class started.

That evening we had Grandpa Rick and Mamaw and Papaw over for cake and ice cream.

Grandma and Grandpa Brigham took her out shopping the night before her birthday and Aunt Rene stopped by with presents.
Lots of celebrating. We have let the kids decide if they want to go on an adventure with just our family or have a birthday party.
Coraline chose to go to the beach!
We headed to our favorite new getaway.
New Buffalo, Michigan.

Coraline asked for a 5 shirt for her birthday and Levi's mom sent one in the mail. She was SUPER excited.

Coraline picked out this cake in June when we went to the store for Clairana and she still remembered.

BEACH TIME! 


Then Levi decided to take us on another adventure before heading back home. We found an apple orchard and picked 80+ lbs of apples.

Then I had an idea for treat time on the way home.

Clairana, Nephi and Coraline building sandcastles




Clairana made this for me. 

Mamaw picked out a real life baby that takes a pacifier and bottle and cry...These are all our faces as we were trying her out. She looks SO real. 

She LOVES this Baby. 




Grandpa Rick got her a Barbie Camper. Big Hit. 

Levi's sister, Ashli, sent presents and asked us to wait till her birthday to open them - worked out perfectly.
New Owl PJs and an Owl Book!
