Happy Birthday Ellie!

Ellie had a really nice birthday. She was so excited from the minute she woke up straight through until bedtime. Thanks so much for all the gifts and well wishes- Ann, your birthday package arrived with perfect timing, and Ellie loved all the fun things in it- she really was touched by the bear items. Dad and Esther, she loved her happy birthday song- played it twice! Also was saying how much she loves the new birthday shopping tradition with Bubbie. Grandma Sue and Grandma with the Angels- your cards are well received..... I see some spending in her future! Julie, she loved the e-card, so thoughtful- she was glad it was from Buster too. And thanks to Aunt Michele for the present and the facebook birthday wishes. The child is sincerely blessed to have each of you in her life.

We went to the Polynesian Show with the Thorntons for her birthday dinner. She LOVED it. Great show and fun cooking your own food...though I always have a hard time with that concept-if I am paying good money there should be someone cooking for me.... just sayin'.

Everyone had a great time.....especially Kevin who got pulled up to dance with the grass skirt girls-

...funny how he didn't miss a beat....

So a really happy birthday to Ellie, and I'm really grateful to everyone who made it special for her......love you guys :)
