Ellie's 8th Birthday!

Ellie turned 8 last week! She is such a fun kid! She is full of energy and excitement. She loves to make people laugh. She has a flare for drama. She loves babies. She loves her friends. She can be bossy at times. She talks a lot. She loves to hold her new baby brother and is very good at rocking him to sleep. She does well in school and always tries her best! She is a spelling whiz! She is very fashionable. She plays with her sisters and brothers so well! She is the baby girl of our family and I can't believe she is 8!

Ellie got to have some friends over on the Friday before her birthday! I had Libby, Rory and Kaitlyn take them down to the park and play some games with them while I got the table ready to decorate cakes.

 This is what they were doing when I can down to get them. Silly girls!

 I had the cute girls do a few poses for the camera!

I just think my kids have the best friends in the whole world! Look at those smiles!

 They came home to this...

 The big girls were great at helping the Ellie and her friends decorate the mini cakes!

 I think they had fun!

 More candy and more frosting please!

 Ellie got so spoiled by her friends!

 Making a wish!

Then on Saturday November 9th Ellies actual day of birth, she got her special birthday breakfast! Crepes, cream and strawberries! ( Everyone else also put nutella on theirs too, but Ellie doesn't like Nutella! I know, crazy huh!)

 Ellie and Nash!

 Isn't this a great pic! :0)

Ellie's favorite dinner of corn chowder!

 Then all our family came over and spoiled her some more! 

 We have a big family and I don't know how we all fit, but we do!

She was one lucky girl! She got everything her heart desired and more! 

She had cheesecake and fresh strawberries for dessert because we are getting a bit sick of birthday cake around here! Jared took pics of it on his camera so maybe some day I will add them in! But whew, I am exhausted from all the parties and so happy that my girls got to have the birthdays they were hoping for even though we had a new baby! Life is good!
