Carly's Birthday - Big 5!

Carly is officially 5! She is so grown up now. She had a great birthday. She FOR SURE wanted to open her presents before school. She got her very own Hello Kitty digital camera. It holds about 90 pictures and it was filled up by the end of the day. She loves to take pictures (a true Barlow.) She took a book (Marley goes to School) to her class as a present. She said everyone loved it and laughed lots. She told me that now everyone in her class knows her name but she doesn't know everyone else's name. A definite advantage of having your birthday the third day of school.

Blowing out her candles. She helped me decorate the flower garden cake. We ate dinner at Andria's - the absolute best seafood place. Carly loves popcorn shrimp so she picked to go there.


Wearing her birthday outfit from Grandma Thompsen.

She could barely stand to wait for everyone to be ready so she could open her presents.

She is checking to make sure the outfit Grandma Barlow gave her fits by laying on top of it. This girl cracks me up! We love you Cars!

She is so funny! She IS so grown up now, it is crazy looking back at pictures even from a year ago and realizing how much older she already looks.
