Happy 4th Birthday Ella

Our little girl is 4!!!  Birthday festivities started the Saturday before her birthday with a PJ Pump It Up party with all of her good friends from school.  Since Ella LOVES wearing pjs, there was no question that the attire for the party should be pjs.  Word on the street from the other parents was that this was a very popular idea and the kids loved it.  There is somewhat of a love/hate relationship with Pump It Up.  I can take Ella there during the week during Pop In Play and she loves it.  Then we'll go for a birthday party and she won't play unless one of us is jumping with her.  Well that was not the case at her party.  About 15 minutes into it, this is what she looked like...hot and sweaty.  She was running around non-stop for the whole party!

 

She looked like she was having so much fun that even Granddad wanted to get in on the fun!

And here is Michael and Ella after a run through the obstacle course.

Then we finished the party with snacks and cake in the party room. 

If there is cake or ice cream, odds are it will end up all over the face!

 

Ella Wolf was anxious to help her good friend Ella C. open her party favor, with Blair supervising it all.  These girls are just too cute!

Then on April 30th Ella went to school and celebrated with cupcakes with all of her friends in her class.  Then she came home and we opened presents (anything Frozen was at the top of her birthday wishlist, although she has thoroughly enjoyed everything that she got for her birthday).  We finished the night with dinner with Grandma and Grandpa, Granddad and Meme, and Jean and Tom at our favorite Mexican food restaurant.  By the end of the night Ella felt very celebrated and was very tired!  It was a great 4th birthday!
