Birthday Girl

We celebrated Ella's birthday bright and early on her birthday before school started.  She woke up early, put her birthday dress on and waited for her brothers to wake up so she could open her gifts.  Daddy was out of town so we called him while presents were being opened.  She was thrilled with her gifts, especially the ones that came in the mail!  New clothes, shoes, puzzle, Hello Kitty headlamp, 1D watch, money, sweater, jewelry, doll clothes and.....a new doll!!!  She has been wanting an American Girl Doll.  However...I found her a similar doll for $90 less.  She was so surprised and is in love with her new Holly!  She even received a matching outfit for her doll! 

 

 

Ella LOVED celebrating all day at school!  I ate lunch with her, the lunchroom sang happy birthday too her, ate cupcakes in class and had all the teachers tell her happy birthday in the hallways.

 

 

She was excited to have daddy home shortly after school....but then he left with the boys for a camp out.  Ella and I enjoyed a quiet birthday night and watched Enchanted together.  We sure love our little girl and she brings so much laughter and joy to our family!
