Ella's Birthday Party!

The day after we got home from Mema & Pepa's for Thanksgiving, our friend Ella had her birthday party.  We loaded up the Family Truckster and headed to the mythical Land of Pears and giants for the festivities.  There were lots of people there and the weather was great.  The girls, although tired, had a lot of fun playing with all of their favorite friends.

 

 

 

 

The bounce house was a hit as usual.

 

 

 

For a while Annete, Carolyn, and their cousins (both first and second variety) dominated it.

 



 

Everybody had fun bouncing.

 

 



 

When it was time for the cake the kids found an awesome vantage point.

 

But Cody positioned himself in prime cake position.

 



 

They waited expectantly for the candle to be lit.

 



 

Then just as excitedly for the cake.

(Carolyn's face is awesome in this pic.)

 



Annette made her way in to help Ella.

 

But she didn't need much help.

 



 

Then it was time to decorate your own cupcake!

 

I can't tell if Annette is enjoying this, can you?

 

Pure skill.

 

Cake wrecks here we come!!

 

Then she gave it to Mommy, awwwwwww.

 

It looks pretty yummy.
