Happy 5th Birthday, Connor!

I'm sure I have said this for the past 4 years, but I can't believe my baby is growing up so fast!  As Connor told me months before, "5 is a pretty big deal Mom."  

So, we threw him the Power Rangers birthday party that he requested to include a giant bouncy slide.  Amidst a drought in California, his party date was a day full of rain and storms.  It magically cleared up right before his party and was sunny until everyone left!
