Happy Birthday Ella Rose


I can't believe Ella Rose is now 3!!! Amazing how quickly the last 3 years have gone!!! Our baby is becoming a little girl! We CELEBRATED Ella Rose's birthday with 7 other friends and her Sister and Mimi and Papa came in for the celebration too. It rained all day but that didn't put a damper on things...we just had 9 kids running around inside and having a BLAST!!!

Ella Rose got a soccer ball for her birthday...she is always talking about wanting to play SOCCER like her big cousin Jackson!

Oh I just love my sweet girl who is filled with so much personality! Ella Rose is such a JOY!

Ella Rose does not like wearing bows but she proudly wore that Happy Birthday crown ALL DAY and is still wearing it!

Can you tell this child does NOT get juice much? What a treat!!!

Cute little Princess shoes

Look at that face! Happy Birthday to you!!!

She's just like her Mama...she LOVES the frosting and will leave the cake

Is she not the most beautiful little 3 year old you have ever seen! We loved being a part of all the birthday festivities! Loved meeting her new little friends, and Mommies too. The cupcakes were yummy and pretty too!

Love,
Mimi and Papa

I don't think I've ever seen Carolina Grace NOT grinning w/ her mouth wide open, so that pic of her looking so solemn is precious, but makes her look so different, so much older!

They're both beautiful girls, and so glad the party went well...everything looked gorgeous, per your usual! Happy belated third birthday to Miss Ella Rose! Miss y'all!

Happy Birthday Ella Rose! Looks like such a fun party with your friends. Love your heels and crown. Katie loves to dress-up too.

Vonda, I think your kitchen looks amazing too! Can't wait to see more pictures of the house.

Oh and Carolina Grace is absolute doll too.

Sending our love!

What a fun party! We sure wish we could have been there to celebrate with you Ella Rose! From what I can tell from the pics, the house is beautiful! I am loving the cupcake holder too! You always know how to find the neatest things. Carolina Grace has grown up so much too! Hoping things continue to work out for this spring! Miss and love you all
