ellie is four!
Decorating for a birthday breakfast.
The party favors that I forgot to hand out....arghhh!
Ellie, Molly, Taj, Ethan/Cody, Courage, Levi, Eli/Grace/Kaiya, Max, Marley
Our gourmet cake...I see all these theme cakes that moms make and I just can't do it! It totally overwhelms me.
It was also our cousin Eli's 3rd birthday so he got a dirty snowball too. Ellie and Eli - sounds like a cute childrens boutique...maybe someday.
That night we met my parents and Justin's family at Maestro's in Provo.
Justins mom got Ellie this darling scripture bag with a tiny sized Book of Mormom with her name on it, a tiny Childrens Hymnbook and colored pencils. Since Ellie's birthday is in Jan, she is just barley going into Sunbeams...my most emotional Sunday in a long time. She was spotlighted for her birthday and we watched from the back in Sharing Time. If I can barely get through her being a Sunbeam, then I am really in trouble.
Ellie's latest look, "hummm...thinking, thinking."
Some of Ellie's favorites: spelling, polly pockets, pretending, making cards, helping cody, playing on starfall.com, doing chores all by herself!
Almost all of Ellie's presents were crafty type things, perfect to get us through these snowy days! Thanks everyone!

Your pictures turned out so cute! I love the snowball, especially. I'm going through mine from Levi's party right now and am bummed because they are blurry.
Fun times! The snowball is cute :)
I keep thinking about Trace's first birthday and doing the big family thing in 10 days...I guess I should stop thinking and start acting! But I agree, it's all overwhelming and the kids love it.
I love that thinking look that Ellie has...very cute little girl.
