alexa's surprise going away/birthday party!

 as soon as our friends knew we were moving, they so kindly asked to throw alexa a going-away party.  we pretended to be having one of our mother/daughter book club meetings-our final one before we left.  alexa has always wanted a surprise party, and she truly had NO idea this was in the works...

we walked into the house and there was complete silence, and out jumped 25 SCREAMING 6th grade girls!  alexa was stunned to say the least.

 such a cute candy bar

our sweet friends soomi, danielle & betsy threw the party

alaine, josie's mom, did the adorable cake

the girls made a video for alexa...lots of tears and laughter!  it was such a fun party and the girls all had a ball.  alexa will miss them all so much but knows she will stay in touch!  so sweet.
