Ceara Turns Five!

It's hard to believe that five years ago, Ceara came into the world and changed everything. I definitely wouldn't change that day for anything and we celebrated with her five years of life. So much has changed having Ceara and she is such a joy in our lives. Ceara loves going to school, loves her friends and meeting new people. She can be stubborn and really likes things her way but in the end knows that we are the parents. She loves all things pink, purple and anything sparkly. If she could decided what to wear every day she would choose a dress or skirt and never wants to wear shoes or socks. She loves my little ponies, littlest pet shops and any sort of Barbie. She loves to draw or do crafts and never stops moving or talking. She is so much like her parents, although I'll let you decide in what ways. We love our little girl and all the ways that life has changed since she was born. Happy 5th Birthday Ceara!
We were able to celebrate her birthday here by having a party and inviting the girls from her school class and people from church or people we have met. We had a my little pony theme which she loved and enjoyed showing everyone a little bit of our Brazilian girl by having some hot dogs, Brazilian style. We played games like hot potato, pin the unicorn on the pony, pop the balloons, and find the ponies, topping it all off with a pinata! It was great to meet some of the kids from Ceara's school and to see other friends meet each other for the first time. Ceara loved every minute of the party and didn't want it to end.
