Our Ellie is growing up...
Saydee kept busy making Ellie her own mini cupcakes for her sister's b-day (filling them with candy and little pieces of broken up Doritos, so funny) it kept her busy while I continued to pack up the house for the move so I was all for it. Saydee was so happy and proud of herself when Ellie got home, she spread her arms out wide in front of her mini cupcakes and said, "Happy Birthday Ellie!"
Ellie and her friend and our neighbor Emily wanted pics taken together before we moved so we went down the street to our favorite trail and bridge on the White River to take pics of the two gals.
Such cute besties!
Ellie who loves breakfast foods choose I-hop for her birthday family dinner so it was a nice easy fix to please all.
Ellie's birthday landed on a crazy busy week for our family. We had a high graduation party at our place for Jarom and his buddy Layton on Sunday afternoon into evening (one last hurrah' at our old home) then followed seminary graduation, Ellie's birthday was Monday and we had to be completely move out of our home by Thursday so we moved Wed and Thursday not to forget Jarom's graduation Friday and Father's day Sunday. We are still in the chaos of finding and moving our belongings into our new place but we survived last week...I'm pretty sure we survived off of lack of sleep fumes but hey we managed and are off to a Jackson Family Reunion this weekend. The kids are still commuting back to Sumner for school through the end of the week, it will be much nicer when school is out for the summer! Needless to say Ellie is 15 now and can get her learners permit for driving :) she is a sweet young lady who loves to laugh and have fun with her family, many friends and admirers. Ellie is creative and enjoys beautifying others and her surroundings. Ellie is excited to go to a new school for her sophomore year in high school this fall but a bit sad she missed the opportunity to try out for cheer with her friends from her new school to be involved. She will figure something out I'm sure, she says she's not much into any sports so maybe a club of some sort or some dance, cheer or tumbling classes outside of school. Happy 15th year of life Ellie, we love you.
