Celebrating Eden

For Eden's 5th birthday, we combined with three other friends from church who also turned 5 this summer and had one huge celebration. It turned out to be a great idea- we split up all the work, invited just a couple mutual friends (just with the birthday kids' families there were 18 kids!) and got to have a much bigger party than anything we could have pulled off on our own.

So, the day of Eden's actual birthday, we kept things pretty simple. Pool time with good friends, cupcakes (blue cake and orange frosting), and a big milestone in our house turning 5 means getting an American Girl Doll.
