A Happy, Happy Weekend.

What a weekend! We had Ella's birthday on Saturday and Mother's Day on Sunday. Ella's birthday was wonderful. The family showed up and it was a beautiful day to be outside. She got many wonderful things and loved all the attention as usual. The cake is from Sarah. My mom baked the cake and Sarah decorated it. It is in the shape of a cupcake and the swirls matched the ones from Ella's dress. It was a big day but everybody had a wonderful time.
Sunday Sarah woke up and we had breakfast for Mother's Day. We then took a trip to Pella to look at the flowers and walk around the square. We meet Sarah's parents and grandparents there for lunch and the walk. The girls had a great time running around and smelling all the tulips. During lunch Ella kept practicing how she was going to smell the flowers. It was a quiet trip home from Pella as Ella slept and Ava just sat nice and quiet. It is amazing that our little girls are growing up and fast. It is a joy to see them change everyday and become more independent, not that they all ready are!! Happy Mother's Day to all mothers out there and have a wonderful weekend.
