Ella Turns 5!!

My sweet Ella turned 5 on Thursday. I can't even believe she is this old! I remember just like it was yesterday getting the wonderful surprise that we were expecting. What a joy she is in our lives! She makes everyday brighter! Words could never express how much I love her. We had such a fun filled day celebrating her birthday. In the morning, we met Grammie at San Tan Mall (Ella's choice) and I let her go to the Disney store and pick one thing out she really wanted. She ended up with a Toy story 3 character set! We then made our usual pretzel stop , did a little shopping, and went to Dairy Queen for some ice cream. We had a party with family at Mother Nature's Farm , she decided she wanted a Halloween party so we decided it would be fun to have it there! We all had such a fun night celebrating with family. Thank you all so much for coming and for all the wonderful gifts for Ella. Happy 5th birthday to my sweet little girl!

First Fishing Trip

We went on our first family fishing trip this past Saturday. A big thank you to Uncle Ryan for taking us to a great place and sharing all of his fishing gear with us! Carson and Ella both caught 3 fish each including a 12 inch bass! They were so excited! What a fun way to spend a Saturday! We all can't wait to go again!

Past few months

I'm finally back to blogging after a long break. We have some exciting news.... We are expecting baby #3 in March 2011. We are beyond excited and feel so blessed. I am currently 17 weeks pregnant. We will find out if it is a sweet baby boy or sweet baby girl on Oct. 20th. The kids are so excited as well and are constantly kissing and hugging my expanding belly.:) So between being really tired and sick during the first trimester and moving to a new house in the middle of summer, you can see why I have neglected this blog. Here are some pictures from the past few months.....

Ella started preschool again in August, her Aunt Alli is her teacher and BFF/Cousin Sophie is in her class. She loves preschool!!!

Carson thought he was going to preschool too:) Water Balloon fun
