HAPPY BIRTHDAY TO ELLA

My baby is growing up!!! She had her second birthday on the 13th of this month...yes it was Friday the 13th! We had two little celebrations for her. One on Friday with all the family members. And one on Sat. with all her little two year old friends. We had a garden themed party where each kid got to pick out and plant a flower into a little pot. We had "dirt" cups instead of cake. Basically chocolate pudding with oreo cookie crumbs. And each little party bag had a watering can a shovel for future planting adventures. It actually went over far better than I was expecting. It was raining that day which I thought would put a damper on the whole thing, but we just moved the planting part into the garage.

I can't believe she is already 2. She is my baby. I swear she was just born. They grow up way too fast!
