We celebrated Aurora's 5th birthday at a park near our house today. We were blessed with gorgeous and not too cool weather. On November 30th she turned 5 years old. Hard to believe our little baby has turned into a "big kid."Aurora chose Elena of Avalor as her birthday theme (a princess we can tolerate finally). To celebrate Mommy and Mama made an "Elena" cake, we got a giant "Elena" piñata at the San Jose Flea Market, and lots of pizza.
On her actual birthday her tía got her a fabulous tres leches cake with her favorite pink flowers (Feliz Cumpleaños Aurora).
And because two celebrations isn't enough, the day before her birthday, she celebrated with her preschool class. Mommy made delicious rice crispy treat cake pops and her class made her an awesome birthday crown.
She continues to amaze and amuse as she grows and changes. The next year is full of excitement including starting kindergarten next fall (gulp!)
