Elyse Is 8 Years Old!

Our first baby turned 8! It happened in a flash but Elyse has grown into the most tender hearted, loving, sensitive, smart and silly little girl. She loves to spend time with family and her friends and she really enjoys school (although she loathes homework). Her birthday fell over Spring Break this year but we took cupcakes to her class the Friday before and then we left on Saturday to spend the break in Colorado with family.
Class cupcakes.

It's tradition no matter where we are... birthday donuts!

A picture with Aunt Moo. Jax was being so silly.

He kept trying to blow out an imaginary candle.


Elyse was thrilled to get her pink fur ball keychain from Bryn.

As a birthday treat for Elyse and and early birthday treat for Bryn, the girls got to go to the American Girl store in Denver and have their dolls hair styled. They both used birthday money to pick out some adorable outfits and accessories for their dolls. Aunt Nancy bravely went shopping with us.

The birthday girl and sweet Mitchell.


All of the cousins reunited. It was such a fun and special day for Elyse to get to spend her birthday with everyone. 




Elyse chose to eat dinner at Jimmy John's Subs and then got to open her presents.



Aunt Nancy got this beautiful and delicious cake for her.



Elyse's 8th birthday was filled with so much fun and love. She can't wait to celebrate with her friends next week.
