McKinley is turning 5!!!!

As bittersweet as it is my baby McKinley is no longer a baby and will soon be turning 5 years old! McKinley's birthday is on May 7 and she is absolutely THRILLED that she is having another birthday and that she will be 5 years old. Since her birthday falls in the middle of the week we are doing her party the Saturday after. In preparation I was trying to get McKinley to decide what invitations she wanted (so I can get them sent out before the party, LOL) and Marc had a great suggestion that we just make her one online and do them that way. Well we took her daddy's suggestion and look AWESOME! I decided not to use just any old snap shot we had already so I got McKinley all dressed up and did her hair and then we went out in search of a great picture (Even though it was FREEZING this morning and I made her wear a dress, she was a great sport!). Poor McKinley was sooo cold that she had to wrap up in her coat between pictures due to the frigid wind. All in all it was worth it cause we got some beautiful pictures of her and she had fun doing it. Here is what her invitations ended up looking like.........


Here are a few of the other pictures from our "photo shoot" this morning.

She is so cute, I can't believe that she is 5 already!! (well not quite but in a few days wow)
I feel like she was just turning 4. I love all the great pictures you guys got of her though. She's definately a trooper, I don't think I would have been going out in the cold to take pictures if it were me today ha.
