Ally Turns Five

So we went low key with the birthday party this year. We let Ally invite her three closest girl friends for an afternoon of swimming at the local rec center pool. We had a giant cookie instead of a cake, on account that Ally doesn't eat the cake part, just the icing. No candles allowed at the rec center, but the girls sang Happy Birthday, which was really cute.

Ally's newest thing is Barbie Maiposa and the Butterfly Fairy, so she got a doll, complete with giant wings, which she held onto while watching the DVD.
