Ella One Year

I present you with Ella's one year pictures!! We took these real quick last night after bath time...so they aren't the best. But Ella makes them super cute. And that dress is awesome!! She's just so big.

Snow. Snow. Snow.

Anyone for a sit on the beach?? Looks tempting right......I just couldn't resist. One of these days I'll get Ella's one year pictures on here. I just have to take them first!!

Happy Birthday Ella

So this is what happens when you turn 1....you get really brave on the ROCKING chair that aunt Jess and uncle Doug got you for your birthday!! Shortly after the pictures of Ella on her knees, she fell backwards off the chair....ouch. BUT....then she decided she'd stand up on the chair and put her arms in the air! Crazy Girl. We LOVE you very much Ella! Happy 1st Birthday.

Birthday Party Fun

So today was the big birthday party and boy are we beat!! Ella got a lot of really awesome gifts and we are very thankful for all the friends and family we have that love ella enough to give her your Sunday afternoon! The bowling was a hit and everyone had lots of fun. Thanks to all who came and to all who keep updated by visiting the blog!!

ELLA'S BIRTHDAY PARTY!!

So our little girl's turning ONE!! Oh my goodness....where did the time go?? She just started walking too! She's growing up soo fast. And a few days after she turns one....mommy turns 30. That's hard to swallow. So....

For Ella's Birthday Party, we're renting out the bowling alley in Spencerville. We are inviting anyone that's interested in bowling to come out for some fun. We don't expect gifts for Ella (or me), just come out and enjoy an afternoon of free bowling with family and friends!

We have the alley on Jan. 11th from 3-6, around 5:00 we will bring in some pizza's, and we'll probably have some snacks throughout the day. We just ask that you purchase your drinks from the bowling alley....that is their only stipulation for renting the facility....you can't carry in drinks. Hope to see you there!
