2013 - September 1st

Today was Ella's birthday party (the LAST one for the season) with her friends at the park! It was HOT but Ella had a great time!!!!

While we were waiting for everyone to arrive Nana led a butterfly making session : )

Ella's "Oreo" Ariel cake

It was pretty windy at the time and hard to keep the candles lit!

After cake we did the pinata....I have to admit it was a little terrifying for me, but thankfully no one got hurt!!
