Ella's Birthday Extravaganza!

Ella's Birthday Extravaganza!

We started Ella's birthday weekend celebration with a Finding Nemo themed party on Saturday, October 11. Friends and family came to help us celebrate our little Ella turning 2! It was an unseasonably warm day with temps in the low 80s. The kids got to go "fishing" for prizes. I think everyone caught some big ones! We sang to the birthday girl, who decided that was a perfect time to sample the cake. She couldn't keep her hands off the icing!! We then opened some presents and then it was off to bed for the birthday girl. The party didn't stop there though. The adults stayed around for a fire and some beverages.
The next day we got together to cheer on Da Bears, and thanks to Uncle Zac we were able to watch it with the satelite.
October 13th 2008- Ella is 2! Daddy, Mommy, and Ella went to the zoo to celebrate her birthday with the animals. We had a nice day walking around and enjoying the weather, but the animals weren't too exciting. They were all sleeping. They must have been too tired from the previous partying done over the weekend. Just like some of the people at Ella's party (Uncle Zac)! The highlight of the trip was our behind the scenes tour of the dolphins. We got to go up close to the dolphins and see where they train and play. That evening we had Ella's friends over for ice cream and some play time with some of her new toys. What a fun weekend!!
