Happy Birthday Lily

We officially have a 6 year old in the house! So hard to believe. Lilian's birthday was yesterday and it was chock full of fun. Her class took a field trip to Conner Prairie and I was able to go along and chaperone. They visited the old pioneer blacksmith, potter, shop keeper, inn keeper and home. Oh and they saw a sheep get shorn (sp?) and then saw the wool turned into yarn and the yarn turned into a blanket. It was cool. Rained the whole day, though, so we were muddy and tired when that was done. After school Lily had a small group of her friends to a birthday party at the Sweet Treat Boutique, our little ice cream and candy shop. They did a really good job with the party. The kids get to see cotton candy and carmel corn made. They make ice cream sundaes, and do a scavenger hunt. Needless to say, there were so many sweets that we skipped the ice cream cake and just put a candle in her sundae :) She has some great friends and it was nice to see them have fun together after school. Here are some pictures of the fun. OH, and the party was a Fancy Nancy theme. We asked everyone to "dress fancy". Check out Miriam's awesome "fancy" outfit :)
