Ella turns 5!

Every year, every birthday, it really is hard to believe that they have hit another milestone.  This is going to be a big year for Ella---kindergarten is on the horizon!!

The big day was jam packed, we did a family 5K in the morning, had brunch with friends, then went to Austin’s first baseball game of the season.

After the game, was Ella’s celebration time.  Instead of a big birthday, this year, Ella had an almost sleep over with Lauren.  (neither is quite ready for the full shebang, so we just had Lauren stay until close to bedtime)  The fun started with a mani/pedi for both girls.

This outfit, the white long sleeve shirt and black skinny jean.  She calls it her Saturday/home day outfit and it is her very favorite thing to wear!  It may not matter that it is 80 degrees out, she is wearing it.

Nothing says spring in Texas like pulling out the baby poolSmile

After a birthday girl chosen dinner of hot dogs, fruit, and chips, it was singing and cupcake time.

Ella can be a very patient big sister.  Reese blew out the candle the first time before Ella could get to it.

It was a day filled with family, friends, and a lot of fun.  I couldn’t think of a better way to celebrate our sweet girl!
