Alexa June is 6!

I have a 6 year old. So crazy to even type that. Alexa kept close tabs on the calendar this month. I think it's her first time counting down the days to her birthday. The morning started off with her birthday banner and her favorite school outfit. At school her teacher gave her a hat to wear and her classmates all sang to her. Just before lunch we were able to go to her classroom with the goody bags Alexa made and a book to read to her class. Justin read to the class and everyone giggled. Addison enjoyed being apart of the class as well. Alexa handed out zebra goody bags filled with play dough, fuzzy pencils, erasers, silly straws and glitter glue.  She was really excited to celebrate with her new friends. Her teacher even gave her a special book to keep.

After school we went to Nickel City and played lots of games. Both girls ended up with a lot of special prizes. On our way home we grabbed McDonald's (Alexa's favorite treat.) That night we video chatted with all of Alexa's Grandparents. We played her new games and ended the night with her horse cake. 

The next day (after soccer) we went to Disneyland. Alexa and Addison had their hair done at the Ana & Elsa Boutique. Alexa chose the Cool As Ice them and Addison chose the Elsa style (but she called it Cinderella Bell hair). Both girls enjoyed all the special attention they attracted with their new looks. Alexa kept her hair in for 3 days. The second night I tried to wash it a bit so it wouldn't look dirty. On the third day I had to use dandruff shampoo to remove all the glitter (pixie dust.) All weekend we rode rides, took pictures, and giggled. It was a wonderful way to celebrate Alexa Jun turning 6. We look forward to watching what another year has in store for her.
