1. She is the BIGGEST helper. It would be like Christmas to Ellie if she could do chores around the house. (yea, I know, I totaly scored!) Plus, she's good at it.
2. She loves her friends.
3. She loves to be healthy. She will do whatever it takes to make sure she is healthy and strong. Sometimes she has to run, which foods are good for her and which ones aren't, by me from time to time.
4. She loves to dance.
5. She loves me!
Happy Birthay, gorgeous!!
Birthday morning. Our breakfast tradition is to pick your favorite cereal. They love this because I rarely let them eat sugary cereals, and I love this because we usually don't have a lot of time in the morning for big breakfasts. (helps me not feel guilty for not making a big breakfast)
After breakfast Ellie got her ears pierced!!! She was so excited!! (Was is the key word. She thought it hurt!!)
Here is Ellie's AWESOME cake. Okay so it's just a half gallon of ice cream, with candles, and hand written name. (tell me I'm crafty!! LOL)
Ellie's birthday party was a couple of days after her birthday. She wanted a Tea Party. Our invitees brought their favorite doll and dressed up fancy. I set them up in our kitchen. I really wanted the girls to feel special. I hope it worked.
Okay, so I would like to take this time to "Toot My Horn" a little bit. I made this cake!!! Can you believe it? I can tell you my husband had his doubts. This was actually pretty easy. Thanks All Recipes!!

Adorable! She truly is a precious princess isn't she. And not only does Broden adore her, but I do as well. She is Definitely one of my favorites!
What a cute idea, I love her party. I can't believe she got her ears pierced, that's awesome. I always tell Brooklyn she can get them pierced whenever she wants but she informs me that she NEVER wants to. Maybe now that Ellie has she will one day. She is so cute, miss you guys!
Five already?! Wasn't she just in nursery? That went by fast!
What a cute party and cake. You did a great job!
Good times--glad we were able to share in it. I do have to say that the cake was just as tasty as it was cute! :)
That is SOO cute! When I called Ellie to say Happy Birthday and ask her what she got, she said, "I had birthday cake with icecream in it and fruits and vegtables!." I couldn't stop laughing because she puts her fruits and veggies right up there with her icecream, lol. Happy Birthday Sweet Girl!!
Wow. Ellie is 5 years old. And what a cute cake! Go Mom! Happy Birthday Ellie.
Happy Birthday! I'm so glad I found your blog! How are you guys doing? We miss being in the ward!
So cute Jess. She is such a mini you. She is beautiful. I hate my kids getting older too. What a cute cake! I'll bet those girls were in princess party heaven.
she's so cute-happy bday ellie! i love the cake-i made one like that for ryleigh's 3rd bday & she still remembers it almost 3 yrs later!
Hi Jessica! I can't believe that Ellie is so grown up that she pierced her ears. I remember when not so long ago Ellie was so little...we went to the park together and she hung on the monkey bars while Jason banged his leg. Bitter Sweet memories...
