Happy Birthday, Ellie Jane!

Our sweet girl - Miss Ellie Jane - had her first birthday a few weeks ago!

She of course had no clue, but we couldn't let the day go by without having a little celebration :)  The 4 Favorites just adore Ellie, and were very excited to celebrate her birthday.  Since I love pretty much any excuse to decorate, we had the kids over for a sleep over and we partied while they were here.  I had helped a friend decorate for her daughter's birthday party several months ago, and the theme was "Pink Poodle"; I had made these polka dot tablecloths and pink poodle fabric runners for that, so I got to reuse everything for our "puppy party"! 

I made them each a little party hat out of felt, complete with a black paw print on front and paw print ribbons to tie them on...

We had paw print cupcakes from the bakery, and we made bone shaped Rice Krispie treats for our party snack.

We sang Happy Birthday to Ellie with a cupcake, but don't worry - we didn't actually let her eat it.  She got to celebrate by having some chicken :)

It was a GREAT party...

After the "party" the 4 favorites had a BLAST! (They always do...they play so good together!)

 

 

We all had a great time with the kids here, and celebrating our little Ellie being in our family!  It was a great weekend!

 

Happy Birthday, Ellie!!
