Party - Elmo Style

Here are MORE pictures of Ellie's birthday bash with friends and family.  It was a Elmo Fiesta Swim Party.  Although we had a few passing showers, we still got in plenty of pool time.  Ellie still prefers to hang in her own little inflatable pool.  Faith, on the other hand, is motoring around the pool in floaties.... I'm sure she'll be doing cannon-balls by next year.  Hopefully Ellie will be more comfortable around water next year too!  To Ellie, water is strictly for drinking and washing.

Yay, more cake! 

Uhhh.. yep, I think I like it! 

Happy Birthday Sweet Girl!
