Ella's 5th Birthday Party

 This was Ella's first friend party, and she had a BLAST!  We had face and nail painting and a candy necklace station where the girls made their own candy necklaces.  Don't forget the buffet equipped with all of the sweets you can imagine!  After the festivities, the girls spent the majority of their time chasing Brock around trying to kiss him.  He loved every minute of it!

The Invitation

 

Elfie made sure to get in on the action.

Presents!

As Ella was opening Hannah's gift, Marisa says, "Really, Hannah??  A box?  You got her a BOX?!"

I couldn't stop laughing!

Happy Birthday to YOU!

 

Elfie seems to becoming quite the acrobat.

Ella's Christmas Program

Sledding at Grammie and Papa's while Daddy and Brock went rabbit hunting.

Trying (and failing) to pull Sophie up the hill.  Maybe had a little to do with the holiday nogg.

Love Sophie's face in this one:

Truly is a winter wonderland

At Laura's Wedding 

Brock thought he was pretty hilarious reading the koozie to everyone.

Melts my heart, especially when they tape it themselves.

The Predator?

Sophie is 3!

Going out for dinner!

The Cake

Love this one!  She has her birthday doughnut, her Dora cake, pink balloons, and she is looking up at her princess balloon.  Soooo happy!
