Ellie is 3!

We have a three-year-old!



Miss Ellie turned three in October, and it is about time I blog about it!
We had such a great time celebrating our cute, funny, sweet little Tangled-loving girlie...

First, we had a little party with family.  She LOVED her Rapunzel cake! (thanks, Auntie Jenn!)


Princesses and babies are her favorite things ever, so she was in heaven!

Auntie Heather with cousin Brynlee and Ellie... :)


...and then we had a little friend party!
I had about 10 minutes to decorate her tower cake so it didn't look as pretty as I'd hoped, but that's okay!  I know Ellie was very happy with it, so that's all that matters to me.
I served the cake in a frying pan!  (If you've never seen "Tangled," I'm sure that seems weird...)

Once all her friends got there, they got a tiara with a Rapunzel braid attached and could decorate it with foam flower stickers if they wanted to.

Then we went outside and got ready to paint like Rapunzel!
I decided to get a quick picture of the braids before putting painting smocks on.
Cute little Xander (the only boy at the party) told me he was really good at making people laugh, so he helped me get these girls to laugh!  Haha, it was such a hoot and, as you can see, it worked!
Love these girls...

Painting is always a hit... ;)


...then back inside for lunch!
We just had peanut butter and honey sandwiches (Ellie's favorite), pink juice, and jello boats!
Oh, and of course, pink cupcakes and pink ice cream.

Then some "Pin the Nose on Flynn Rider"!

Then we all sat down and I read one of Ellie's favorite books, "Pinkalicious."
It was almost time to go at that point, so we opened presents!
Ellie was just on cloud nine the whole time.



She has the cutest little friends ever.  We are so blessed to live close to all of them!

We love you, Ellie bean!
So happy you're ours!!
