bowling extravaganza

i do realize it has been a couple of weeks since ella's actual birthday, but we like to make birthdays last as long as possible around here.

so, we did a little bowling with a lot of little girls, ate a little pizza and a cupcake or two, opened a lot of fun presents and even played some arcade games.

it was a fun evening! ella was very excited and this is what she wore. there was no talking her out it. i tried. and tried. and tried.
happy 5th birthday to our ella girl!
