Adventures of Evie

 It's finally Evie's birthday and for her birthday she BEGGED me to take her to the Museum of Ice Cream. So here we are. It's very....pink. Honestly the entire experience was FULLY curated for amazing photos and it was also a lot of fun. They take you in small groups which is awesome since we were really able to enjoy each space and spend the time we wanted to. We were greeted by an ice cream subway and the choice of a dark or milk chocolate ice cream bar. After we ate that we moved on to another room where we got an overview of the museum. Evie got her special birthday girl crown and button which says "It's my birthday!" Throughout the museum as people greeted her with "Happy birthday!" she continued to ask me, "How do they know, mama?" and I just kept reminding her of her little birthday pin. Further along we got to use magnets to write what we love, what we dream of and where we are from. There was another ice cream station with pink ice...

Well the pool was open again today and even though it was chilly Evie was super excited to get in again! We had the bag all packed up so we headed down straight after work/school. She swam and ate snacks and read a book to me. A lot of her friends showed up today which was nice and she also found out she loves to paddleboard.  Then we headed out to pick up her cake. There was a huge kerfuffle with the cake and even though I purchased it in plenty of time and called to verify that it was finished they had closed up the bakery when we arrived. It took three people and about 20 minutes to find the cake but we got it! While we waited an older gentleman gave Evie a shiny penny and a coloring book for her birthday. After we checked everything was good we headed up to Nana's for her celebration. She loved her presents and the cake was super yummy. Only one week left til she turns officially 6. I can't believe how fast it's flown by. <3
