Ella's 4th Birthday!!

Well, we have a 4-year-old.....and she's the sweetest 4-year-old on the face of the planet!! Since March 30th fell on a Saturday this year, we could have her party on her actual birthday!! Such a fun-filled time at MoJoBas (or the "jumpy-place," as the girls call it). Check out our celebration of FOUR FABULOUS years of our precious "E-Bobby-T!!!"

Ella got all dolled-up in her "Birthday Girl Outfit" given to her by Grandmommie....

.....and we headed out to MoJoBas to party with our friends and family. :) :) :)

Here's Nora greeting one of her BFFs, Annabelle (her momma hugs me like that everyday, also) :)

Ella and Addie share the same birthday. Addie is about12 hours older, and 12 inches taller. :)

Audrey and Halle are also just a few days apart in age....

I still can't get over Halle's head FULL of hair!!

Nora and McKayla....

 Lilah, Nora, & Annabelle....

Tyson, Michelle, and Audrey :)

 Daddy & Claira (who wasn't feeling very well.....as you will see in the upcoming Easter Blog, all that dang bunny brought us was a bunch of GERMS!!)

PawPaw was feeling badly, too......he was getting over pneumonia, so he and Clairy bonded. :)

 The "big kids" and little kids played for a while..... here's Uncle Bug and Halle on the slide...

Slay-Bear and some other adults played the golf simulators.....

.....and of course, it can't be a party without some dancing and cheerleading....

Finally, it was time to sing "Happy Birthday," and have cupcakes!! I mistakenly bought some "extra-skinny" candles, and we had a time getting those things lit!!! Leave it to me..... ;)

 Ella's and Rhett's post-cupcake faces :)

Then, we opened presents!! Ella loved all of her gifts!!

 After the party, Grandmommie took the "big girls" to the mall so they could "Build a Bear." They've been wanting to do that for weeks!! I thought it was pretty neato that they each got a "carrier-sling" for their bears so that they could "match mommy when she carries Claira." :)

I honestly can't even begin to verbalize just how special Ella is. She is way beyond special, with a heart as big as Texas. She tells us she loves every hour on the hour.....sometimes, she will even run in from playing outside just to remind us that she loves us!! When I asked her what her favorite part of her birthday way, she replied, "just having my family with me." What 4-year-old says that?!?! She is an unbelievable gift!! And she's made these last 4 years so very sweet.

Here's to Four FaBuLoUs years of our Extraordinary Ella.

Mama loves you so very much, baby.
"To the moon and back." ;)
