Look who celebrated a birthday over the weekend!  Firecracker turned 5 years-old on Halloween (which is why I’m so late posting – what a busy weekend!!)

My sweet girl, Mama and Daddy are SO glad you are a part of our family!  You bring such enthusiasm, such big feelings, and so much delight wherever you go.  You have the best laugh ever – you laugh with your whole self.  Your exuberance is contagious, and we are blessed by you every day!

(Classic Firecracker – pink prairie girl meets tomboy – she’s  in her new bonnet and with her new fan (birthday gifts), a girly girl thrift store dress, along with wellies, while taking a break from riding her scooter and playing “Zombie Pirates” with her sister in order to pose for the camera.  Gotta love her.).
