Sundae Sunday Social for a Six-Year Old!

Finally, Isabelle's birthday wish of having everyone together in Toronto came true. She's been excited to have this party pretty much since last year's fifth birthday party ended! The theme this year was a Sundae Sunday Social, complete with a fully-stocked sundae bar that was sure to please young and old alike. She was surrounded by many well-wishers and had a fantastic time. Family parties are always a blast, especially as there seem to be more and more kids every year. Isabelle enjoys playing the elder statesman to her cousins, leading her many friends around the courtyard, at the craft table and guiding them through their face painting. Oliver was happy to tag along as the younger brother, loving his Spider-Man face paint and using his swords to joust with any willing participant. Everyone had an awesome time and people were more than generous with not just gifts but their time. It was a real treat to have everyone together and we already can't wait to see everyone again at the New Year's party. It has been amazing to watch Isabelle grow over the years from this tiny little baby with a million possibilities in her future to this sweet little girl with such a big heart. She is a great daughter and an awesome sister and we couldn't be prouder of what she has become. We know that in year seven she will continue to show us what a special little girl she is. Happy birthday, angel, we love you with all our hearts!

Wow, we can't believe she is already six!
