Happy Birthday Ella


Grandpa with his girls at the bowling Alley...waiting to play games and eat dinner. G&G wanted to help Ella celebrate so they brought her out to eat and even bought her a chocolate cake....she loved everything! Thanks G&G!

Ella and her build a bear named Spot!

Ella's building her bear and Eva's!

She got to push the foot peddle to fluff him.


Unlce Grant (Bum) hangin out with Ella. Evan has taught Ella to call Uncle Bum so thats what she does. So nice of her!

Eva trying to put her shoes on!

Grandpa and Eva layin on her backpack! It took quite awhile to get Eva to understand that she had to put her head on it. It was cute watchin them.

Eva on her egg hunt in our backyard.

The girls on their hunt...since it rains everyday the backyard was very wet so the girls had to wear boots with their cute little dresses.

Evan and Eva just chillin...Eva had been so reserved lately. We love it!

We celebrated Ellas birthday with G&G on Saturday and Ella recieved this present from Uncle Jon and Aunt Alana. She loves it and was very proud of herself that she could put it together with little help.

Us on Easter! The girls were sick of pictures but the action shot of us is cute!

Us again!

G&G with the girls...what a cute one.

All of us. We had 10 seconds to run into place...it worked great!

Eva and Grandma in church.

Grandpa reading his favorite...The Berenstein Bears to the girls.

Ella hunting for eggs at the moms Easter eggs hunt!

Yay! Eva found one...it took her awhile to figure out that the eggs go in her basket but she loved it.

I know safe mommy...putting my daughter on the counter! Anyways Eva was feeding Ella yogurt and she was giggling like crazy!

Well our company is gone and it was sad to watch them drive away this morning. They dont come often nor do they stay long so its depressing when they leave. We had a great time and savored every minute together. They arrived on Friday afternoon and the girls both ran to them with open arms. We relaxed together since G&G and Grant drove through the night...kinda tired. On Saturday G&G unofficially called it Ella's birthday so they could help her celebrate. They brought her to build-a-bear so she could pick out her very own bear (puppy in her case) and stuff it and dress it herself. She loved that experience although the wait was exhausting! We came home for a quick nap and then went out to eat and to play games at a nearby bowiling alley. Ella had a great time! Sunday we went to church and had our big feast along with a few Easter egg hunts; one in the house and one outside. The weather was warm with periodic showers. Today we said goodbye, ran a few errands, and are busy getting ready for Ella's birthday party on Saturday. She's looking forward to it, although I work the night before so unsure of how I will feel. I guess just drink lots of caffiene (or alcohol)-:o) and I'll make it through it. On thursday we went to the moms Easter egg hunt and the girls had a great time, again a little wet and messy but worth it. On Wednesday we went to the library, tried to stay busy last week as always. I can't believe my baby is 3 already...advantaged and disadvantages I guess! I have loved every minute of it and look forward to what the future holds fo her. Eva must be growing, she is sleeping lots! She is also getting another tooth- so she has 10 - a mouthful! We hope everyone had a safe and happy Easter!
