I'm a little late writing this post but things have been pretty busy around here...but I can't put it off any longer. I have to document the day Elle turned four because I can't even begin to explain how excited she was! She must have asked me everyday for 3 months how much longer till she's four. We were going to be in St. George over her birthday and when I told her that she said, " No mom! We can't go there because then Hope won't know I turned four!" She wanted to make sure everyone knew. We celebrated with the Christensen's at Cheesecake factory. (Notice the wet paper towel she's holding over her eye? When I took her to the bathroom she didn't get all the soap off her hands and half way walking back to our table she rubbed her eye and instantly starting screaming bloody murder. It was a little embarassing picking her up kicking and screaming back into the bathroom.) Kathy made her the most adorable dress and I'm SO excited about it. She LOVES is! Then tues we threw her a "fairtale" party because she has too many little boy friends to have a "Princess" party. We played princess princess pirate (thanks Jami for that idea) Fairytale bingo, pin the fire on the dragon, and went on a treasure hunt:) She was very cute about the whole thing and asked me "if we could have another party tomorrow?!" Then that night we celebrated at my parents with my whole family with a cinco de mayo theme. My brothers crack me up...they seriously planned the whole thing: steak fajitas, chips n salsas, tostadas, margaritas, horchata, jalepeno lights everywhere, sombrero's, mustache's, and of course ricki martin, enrique, and shakira. We had a dance party outside and laughed all night. Toby was already in st george for work, but my parents were going down on their yearly trip with their friends so I hitched a ride with them. When we got there Toby had put up like 40 balloons all over the condo and each one had something written on it special about Elle. It was so thoughtful of him. We had yet another fun night celebrating her day. At the last minute we invited some of my family to come down with us since toby was playing in a game down there that weekend and EVERY single one of them ended up coming down. We had so much fun! Thanks everyone for helping us celebrate Elle. We love that little girl with all our hearts and are so thankful for what she brings to our little family. She keeps us laughing ALL the time. I can't believe she's four. WE LOVE YOU ELLE!!!!

Happy late birthday to Elle! Looks like she had a great time! She's such a funny little girl. Your posts about her crack me up!

I remember when Addison was into princesses. I miss that stage in life. What a cute little girl you have and such a cute little party.
