February 2014

This has been a busy month!!  We had so much fun!! Let's count the 10 most exciting things...

1.  My Sweet Ella turned 3!!!!!!!  I can't believe my sweet girl is already 3 years old!!  She is such a funny little girl and I love her so very much!  She requested a pink castle cake with Prince charming on it.  She loved it!!  She wanted to celebrate her big day by going to the zoo...she loved every second  of that too.   She is an absolute joy...I am so proud to be her mama!!

2.  Make up...Ella loves it.

She had to "get pretty for grandpa".

3.  Grandma and Grandpa came to visit!!!  We were so happy that they came to see us! Ella loves taking pics of them!  I think I have about 100 Ella pics on my camera right now!

 4.  Rich and I got to go to Washington DC for a few days!!  Rich had a conference and I to tag along.  IT WAS SOOOO COLD!  But, we had a GREAT time!

5. Valentines Day: Can I just take a minute to say how amazing my husband is??  I woke up to find this note on my mirror...each word on a different post it.  I was HUGE!  I was so overwhelmed with such a beautiful heartfelt gesture.  I left it up for days...he is such a keeper!!

-The kids were pretty into Valentines Day this year...I think Ella is convinced that this is HER holiday...all the hearts, pink and purple...make her so very happy!

5. Jaxon's Cub Scout Blue and Gold Banquet- Jaxon had a blast at his Blue and Gold.  He had to make a cake for the event and he won "Coolest Cake".  We were major over achievers...and we loved every second of it.  He is a great helper when it comes to making cakes!  He had a blast with all of the games too...the night was a huge success!

Coolest cake!!  Volcano cake with dinosaurs!

Lava cake....Dry ice was in the volcano!

Game time!

6.  This face...it kills me every time.

7. I love how much she loves her daddy...isn't this adorable??

8. Texas...oh your crack me up.

This is at Walmart...hahaha!

9. I got a knock at the door...and it was a package from UPS.  I wasn't expecting anything...so I was wondering what was in this great PINK box!!!  I was sooooooo  stoked to see these little babies inside!! My sweet sissy sent me these!!  If you haven't had them...order them.  AMAZING!!  Cupcakes all the was from DC!  Thank you Sarie...I love you and miss you so very much!

10. This little girl has learned to SHOP.  She is a pincher and a squeezer...she wants to walk in all the stores and she loves to touch EVERYTHING.  A simple errand now turns into a world of the unknown for Ella Belle...hilarious.
