Happy 6th Birthday Ella!

Our little Ella Bean turned 6 today! She has been so excited about her birthday counting down the sleeps. I decided earlier this year that we were only going to have birthday parties with friends every second year and so this year Ella just had a family dinner (pizza, fizz and cupcakes) and presents at home. Chris also arrived home today from a trip to Florida and so Ella had to wait until after school to open her presents. All Ella wanted for her birthday was a hulu hoop - she got a nice hot pink! She also received a pair of very cool African dwarf frogs from Sam and Owen.

One of her favorite presents were raspberries, blueberries and strawberries from Grandpa Bingham. Ella and Grandpa share a special dislike of chocolate and an extra special love for all berries. Ella has already consumed one container of raspberries!


The present opening ceremony..... Ella invited her friends Holland and Harper to to watch her open her presents.

And Ella's frogs...

Happy Birthday Ella! My girls had a less eventful day- Camille was sick, so we had a cancelled party and Paul is out of town. Weird how life can go on even on special days!
I always think of Ella on this day- hopefully we can reunite one day!
