Happy Birthday Ellika!!

 Ellika's birthday fell on a Saturday, which was perfect.  We could play all day!!  We started our day on the Lake with her friends. 

 After boating we headed out to the pool.  It was such a beautiful day outside!!

 I loved it when we had the pool all to ourselves!!

 It's nice to have a supply of pool toys!

 It must have been a big day... Brian actually got in the pool too!!!!

 Warming up in the sun.

 Her Princess Cake

 My little two year old!

 This is one of their absolute favorite activities... run from the couch to the front door.  Over and over and over again!!

 While we were singing Happy Birthday to her, she was glaring at everyone and when we neared the end she told us all the stop!  It was funny. 

 But she did blow out her candles.

 And she liked her pink cake!

 Present time!  She was most excited to open the Toy Story package.  It actually had Belle, The Beast, and Rapunzel Barbie dolls inside, but she was still happy with them. 

 Owen and her friends helped open all the packages.  Princesses don't do their own labor! 

 Hurley gave her some super cute bracelets.  Here she is showing Ellika how to wear them.  Isn't she a good friend?!

 Rachie got her the Royal Wedding Playset, complete with Princess Catherine, Prince William, the Queen, Prince Phillip, a horse, carriage, dog, Royal Guard, and a soldier.  Seriously  about the cutest thing ever!!

 Owen gave her two Tangled books.  She LOVES Tangled!!!  And she LOVES this book.  We read it ALL THE TIME!!

 And this is her new cute doll house.  It is so fun to watch her play with the little family and to see her and Owen playing together. 

And at 10:00 pm she was finally ready to lay her Princess head on her new Princess Pillow and go to sleep.  She had a wonderful day and a wonderful birthday.  Thank you everyone for making it so special!!!
