March Highlights

This month it would appear my camera was broke because my lack of pictures should indicate it.  We actually took our first family road trip and you would think I would have captured it but no.  It actually was not that great of a trip.  It was wonderful to see Mikes Great Aunt Flora but the drive was tough.  We also got to be with the Hargrave girls for 4 days while Tara and Dave went to Steven's graduation from boot camp.  I have a couple pics from that trip.  Here is our month in pics!

Here the girls are with Gramma on the carousel.  Ella's first time - she loved it!



Swinging in Aunt Tara's backyard!

They have an awesome trampoline and as you can see the girls loved it!

I love this picture of Savannah and Ella!

Chandler is so good to Lily - they had the best time.

A day at the Childrens museum!

We headed out with Aunt Lindsay, Declan and Lexi today and took the train down to San Diego and went to the Childrens Museum.  We had such a great time and the kiddos loved it.

I lvoe this shot of Declans hair from the static on the slide

Lily climbing up the tires to go to the slide.  She did it all by herself. 

Such a big girl!

Ella just loved this little cow on wheels!

Happy Heart Day!

Happy Valentines Day.  Here are my two little loves all dressed up with really nowhere to go.  That's okay because it makes for great pictures!

February Fun!

This month really revolved around Ella's birthday or rather me getting all I needed done for the big day.  Once it was over we relaxed and just enjoyed our family and friends.

One of most favorite things is Friday night Pizza with Declan and Lexi and Uncle Adam and Aunt Lindsay of course.  We are so lucky to have them and it is no nice how close these cousins are and I don't mean age wise although that is awesome too. 

More Pizza Please!  Anna joined us on this particular Friday night for some added fun.

Look at how precious these three are.  These were taken at the Safari park on Ella's actual birthday.  What better way to spend it then with her 2 best buddies!

I love how Lexi waves to the camera.

Lexi went right for the stairs and Ella thought about it and then realized she was older so she better follow her cousin.

Oh that look of determination



Ella's Birthday Party!

We had a ladybug theme for Ella's 1st birthday!  We had so much fun with a bouce house and a face painter.  Ella really enjoyed herself and so did Lily - we sure hope all our guests did too!  Happy Birthday my sweet Ella.  I can't believe you are already a year old - time is flying by.  You are such a joy and precious gift - we love you so very much!

 I got this idea from Pinterest!

Sweet Ella.  Lily wore this shirt with a different tut for her first birthday!

Here are the 3 girls!

Bounce House Fun!

Anna lives right next door and Lily and her are great friends.  They are too cute!

We had a face painter but all the girls wanted to be puppy dogs!

Getting ready for cake

I don't have a picture of it but right after this Ella put her hand on the candle.  She wasn't to happy.  Luckily the cake soothed her.

Did I mention Ella really loves cake!
