Eliana is 5!!

Eliana turned 5 today and I have to admit - I was a bit sad and I almost cried when we brought the cupcakes to her school this afternoon. Just to see her with her crown and the look on her face when she saw Fadi and I in the doorway was just priceless! Her friends liked the cupcakes and Eliana had 2 of them!! After the cupcakes, we stayed for a few minutes and danced with the kids in her class and we left.
After her party - we went home and she got ready for her 5 year old pictures. Can you tell that she loves to be in front of the camera.

This is her "I'm 5 years old now" pose :)

My two favorite people in this world!

I love how daring she has become - She is not afraid of much anymore!!

Eliana chose to go to Buffalo Wild Wings for her birthday dinner! It was nice to get together with Fadi's family on the night of her birthday, even though we are having her party on Sunday!

It makes me miss my family even more :(

Ahlam brought this cake - Eliana was excited that we were able to sing to her!

This is the chunky monkey eating her special birthday dessert and birthday cake!

My sweet little family!!

I had to give my girl some birthday love!!
