Reese's 5th Birthday

Reese's 5th birthday was quite the party!  We woke up bright and early to start our festivities.

After a hearty breakfast and opening a few presents, we hurried and got ready, loaded up the car, and make our trek to Utah.  It was time to start our birthday celebrations!  Reese shares her birthday with her Grandpa Brad and Uncle Brad and it had been years since we have celebrated with them so we wanted to celebrate with the Calls this year.

Once we got to Syracuse we called Grandma Jan to meet us at Walmart because Reese finally decided that she wanted to get her ears pierced.

She was very brave and tried really hard to hold in her tears but when I told her it was okay to cry she finally let her tears out.  She was a little nervous to let me clean her ears later on that day but once I showed her that it didn't hurt to touch her ears she has been great about her ears.

We went to Olive Garden that night and met up with all of the Call family to celebrate the birthdays.

Olive Garden was great to get all 20 of us at a table.  We had a very delicious dinner and great company.

Reese was definitely spoiled for her birthday, but then you only turn 5 once!  Reese has been a little obsessed with unicorns and ponies for a while.  Grandma got Reese a cute My Little Pony cake, balloons, and he very own My Little Pony stuffed animal!  Reese was definitely excited about that!

But her most prized possession of the night was her brand new Caboodle!  Ever since she saw her cousin Kajsa's caboodle at Christmas, Reese has been begging and pleading for a caboodle.  Well she was quite excited when she opened her very last present and found what... her very own caboodle!!!

We love you Reesie girl!  Thanks for being the sweetest little girl we could ever ask for.
