My birthday

Me and my girls on my birthday out for dinner.

Look at how happy I look! Yes CAKE!

                                                         Ella's ready to blow them out!

                                             Ella dressing up her and her puppy!

                                              Daddy and Ella made a perfect cake!

  We (Becky and David and I and the girls) painted Ella's room. The girls had fun helping! Eva didn't last long but Ella couldn't helped forever.

     On MLK day David and Evan took the girls to the zoo, bless their hearts because it was freezing; 20 degrees, snowing and blowing. Becky and I stayed home to paint, wish we could have relaxed but there's never time for that. The girls didn't complain once to me about how cold it was.

                                                 Sisterly love!

Ella's new room, we have a few more things to finish up but should be complete within the next week!

 My new Northface fuzzy jacket from my bestest friend Jenna for my birthday! Eva likes how soft it is too.

 Eva was on Uncle's team when we played a game. She doesn't have the attention span for much yet.

 

 

                                          Uncle David made me a snowman, I love it!

 

Ella got her hair CUT! It got a little shorter than expected but it was starting to get pretty tangly and neither her nor I want to deal with that so we made it better. We all like it!

Sorry for the delay, I have been working more and Uncle David and Aunt Becky were here for almost a week. They came last Thursday to help out by watching the girls while I slept from work 2 days and also so Evan and I could escape normality for my birthday to go stay in a hotel. No big plans were set just shopping, movies, eating/drinking, and relaxing. We had a super time away and appreciate everything Becky and Dave do for us, which there are certainly no words to tell them exactly how much they mean to us. They also helped us get some projects done around the house, painting/fixing. Ella's room turned out great and she loves it. I have become quite the do it yourselfer. :o) Dave and Becky helped me get started on Ella's headboard, just 1x6 boards, stained and put up for Ella. The cheapest headboard I could think of especially since Evan thinks they are not necessary. We (me and Ella) also painted her a mirror pink and put sparkles on it, she loves it! Tonight I also just put some pictures on canvases to hang. They are expensive to buy so I made my own, they turned out great! I will post pictures of all this stuff as soon as we get them hung. So other than keeping busy we are doing well, Eva has a cold again so kind of miserable. Tonight we started our 10 day dog sitting service, Ella and Eva are going to have a great 10 days. I will hopefully have some time to myself :o) I hope everyone is staying warm because its a cold January.
