An auspicious day

Leah's birthday celebrations got off to a great start with a special message left by Felix the Elf.
Then it was off to eat breakfast tacos with Dad!

Next on the schedule was a choir performance at our school's annual International/Cultural Festival.  This year was mostly sponsored by the Korean Education Center so we had yummy Korean bento boxes for lunch.

After a dinner of Pigs in a Blanket and Macaroni and Cheese, it was time to open presents!
Leah's big present this year was a room makeover.  Since she is no longer sharing with Eli, we decided it was time to prettify her bedroom and let her show her personality in it.
She also received a camera, art books and new clothes from grandparents.
Thanks everyone!

Leah opted to go with pie for her dessert.
A homemade peanut butter pie and an apple pie that we picked up from a local bakery.
The favorite was definitely the PB pie - seriously yummy!

We are looking forward to another great year with our precocious, talented, talkative girl.
Leah is always making plans for something and loves to involve everyone around in her plans - whether they want to be included or not!  We can't wait to see what she comes up with next!
