Ellie is one!!

Ellie's first year of life went by WAY too fast!!
We did it for Cayden so we thought we should keep the tradition going..their first doughnut on their first Birthday =)

Ellie loved it..

We had a Cinderellie birthday theme for her and I had SO much fun planning it.

I made all the plates clocks almost at the stroke of midnight..

The favors for the kids were bubble wands and Cinderella coloring pages..

Our birthday girl..

Ellie enjoyed all of the present opening..

Unfortunately all of the "cake" pictures are blurry so I picked a few that were not too bad..

She was just like her brother and not really into it. Not sure if it was the fact that there was a bunch of people staring at her or not =)

It was a great day shared with family and friends!!

Boat trip!

On June 10th we went out my Cousins boat. We had SO much fun spending the day on the lake.

I was a little worried how Cayden would handle being on a boat since it was his first time...he LOVED it!!

Ellie loved it too except for the life jacket..

Ellie with Claire

Ellie had some phone calls to make..

Luckily Ellie took a nice nap on the boat, I was wondering if she would but honestly whenever we were out driving it seemed to really relax her..

The water was nice and warm..

After naps and lunch we decided to pull out the raft...

Cayden could not get enough of it..he was on it for at least an hour and still didn't want to get off. He had a huge smile on his face the whole time...

Time for the boys to go..

What better way to end a perfect day on the lake? Dinner at Cafe Rio =)

Disney night!

On May 28th Grammy and I took the kids to Disneyland after work!

Cayden loves the golden Zephyr so he had to go with Grammy..

Love these kids...

Ellie was having a blast "walking" in the monsters inc. line...

Ellie was really not too sure about Dumbo..

Cayden was really trying to get the sword out..

It was of course another great trip to Disneyland!!
