Norah's 5th Birthday

Started out her birthday with a flashing "5" tiara

a face painting kit

a hammer

a Tiana dress-up outfit

then she had a bath and wanted to wear her "wedding" dress and her face painted for school 


after school we went to the arcade

then to the BBC for dinner - her favorite place!

when we came home from school on Friday, Grandma & Grandpa were here and she got more presents!!!
