Ella Turned 3!!

This post is long overdue.  Ella turned 3!

When Ella woke up Lilly gave her the gift she picked out just for her sister.  Ella loves Barbies and dogs so this was a perfect gift.

 It was a beautiful day.  Instead of a big birthday party (she wanted to go to a "gym") we just met a few friends at a local play place called Kid Junction.  Ella gets nervous easily and wasn't sure about having a party so we played it off as just a fun time at a gym and fun it was! Getting ready to leave...

 Fun in the taxi with Christina.

 The boys kept sliding off the seat and into the floor of this car.  It was so funny.

 I love this picture.  It makes me think of them as 17 year olds in a real car.  The way Gabe is looking at Luke cracks me up.

 Playing in the pretend diner.

 Birthday girl with Mommy and Daddy!

 The dads...

 The moms...

 Even though there were only 3 families, we had plenty of kids!

 We were the only people at Kid Junction.  It worked out perfectly.  We even got the run of the snack area.  We enjoyed dinner as the kids went in and out to play.

 Ella picked out doggie plates and napkins.

Happy 3rd Birthday sweet girl.  You are such a blessing in our lives.  We love you so much!
