Life Lately - Ella's Birthday Week

Monday
The kids have loved having Lauren babysit this summer while I work.
Tie dying t-shirts with her!
Party prep started that night 
Trying to decide how I wanted to set the table

Tuesday
We took Granddaddy to treatment bright and early 
Helping me bake for her birthday party 
We went to the Children's Museum with the Browns 
They had a very neat exhibit representing all 50 states.
Here is Ella at the corn maze you could venture thru. 
In  a cave 
Riding a covered wagon 
Driving a car on their road trip to see the US 
Digging for dinosaur fossils 
Rock wall climbing 
Driving a dog sled in Alaska 
Waiting for the Planetarium show to start - which messed up so we didn't get to watch 
Ella had her first cheerleading practice with Upward

Wednesday
Haley came over bright and early so Claire could get Katelyn to her first day of school 
The kids played at Mrs. D'Shays for Ocean Week 
Then we did some grocery shopping 
More baking! 
Finished setting the table for Ella's Party 
Place setting for Ella and her baby, Isabelle 
We gave her the bitty baby she had been asking for that night.
She also came with a matching party dress! 
I decorated cupcakes after church 
Little bottles that Ella picked out for her cupcake toppers 
Carrot cake cupcake with nuts (Ella's birthday request) 

Thursday
Back to Raleigh with Granddaddy with Isabelle and her visor on from ocean week 
Isabelle road around with Granddaddy 
Ready for her birthday party!
In her matching PJs she got at her party 
Ella and Isabelle ready for bed - I just love this sweet girl and can't believe she is almost 5!

Friday
Headed to the lake for more birthday fun!
