Happy 5th Birthday Elizabeth!
Today Elizabeth is 5 years old! The excitment of her birthday started at the beginning of November with the birthday countdown. Today Jackie put together a fantastic party with friends. Elizabeth got to dictate the order of activites: presents, cake, and surprise activity. The mermaid cake made by Jackie was amazing. The surprise activity was getting to play with a box full of Barbies and accessories. Talk about a 5 year old dream!
We are having a family dinner tonight and then a joint party on Saturday. The birthday celebrating will continue for days.
Happy 5th birthday little girl!

Adam talks girlfriends at daycare
This excerpt below is from Adam and Elizabeth's daycare provider Jackie. The other kids referenced are girls who attend the daycare as well. I think I can speak for Sam at this point when I say that these are probably some of the only girlfriends we will approve of for Adam!
Adam to Jackie, pointing to Claire up on the climber outside: "Jackie,see that ‘gurl’ up there? She is one of my gurl friends. You know what gurl friends like to do? They love to kiss and hug you all the time! " Claire slides down and runs to Adam and squeezes his face in her hands, both laughing. "Just like that Jackie!" A few minutes later, "Jackie you are my gurlfriend too." Jackie, "How many girlfriends do you have Adam?" Adam holding up his fingers and naming them on each finger, "I have Claire, Norah, me, Elizabeth, and you. I have four girlfriends!"

Stout's Island Lodge Day 1
Yesterday we made the trip up to northern Wisconsin to Stout's Island Lodge. Along the way we ran into great-grandparents Donald and Dolores at our lunch stop in Baldwin.
We took a ferry boat ride across the lake to the lodge. From there we checked into our room and then explored the 26 acre island. When it got dark, the kids enjoyed some s'mores before bed!

Too cute
Josh is on a working out kick, so we've been exploring the parks while he mountain bikes. I took some cute park pictures this weekend.
