Another Birthday This Week

The joy of having kids with birthdays so close together is celebrating them within days of each other.

Yesterday my sweet Ella turned 4 years old.

She was very excited to finally be another year older.

I think one of the highlights was just spending the day together with her and John, as Brie was at school.

She got to help "decorate" her cake.

She played with her new toys.

This is the Crazy Forts. There are some mixed reviews about the product, but we decided to go for it anyways.

We are so glad that we did.

It was a big hit! For all four of us.

Here we are inside our newly-built fort.

Ella is being silly, as always!

And opening up a fishing rod. Brie got one a few days ago too, and Ella was very jealous at the time. Her expression in this picture shows it all!
