our 6 year old

 yesterday was my birthday!

 i opened my presents yesterday.

love ella

 yes, that's right.  ella turned 6 years old yesterday! 

she had a few requests for the day...

pancakes for breakfast

a little tennis time with the family

lunch at mcdonalds

dinner at red robin

 i'm happy to report that all requests were fulfilled. 

 we also spent a few hours searching for the perfect desk for ella's room.  she's been dying for a desk for a while now.  luckily we found the one and a bright pink chair that you can raise/lower.  it also spins and rolls.  oh boy.

 the day ended with a sundae at red robin and later chocolate cake with chocolate frosting at home. 

we love our ella.
