Long Overdue Update


THE CAKE!




So much has happened in the past month. Ella celebrated her 6th birthday with a poodle party. It was smaller than we are used to but still fun. She is getting to the age of "drop off" parties. This is a strange concept to us! Since we lived in the same city since both girls were born we were friends with so many families and the families came to the parties. Since we just invited the girls in her class. It felt wierd to not have any parents stay and have to entertain them. My friend Lori, her husband and my friend Debbie stayed but that was it! (Of course Ga and Pop were here too). The cake turned out soooo cute (I made it!) I was so proud of myself! I am sure that I could have paid a lot of money for someone to make one and it wouldn't have turned out any better. Ok I do have a big head about this but I LOVE decorating cakes and it is so exciting when they turn out cuter than I expect! We had lots of activities including Pin the Tail on the Poodle, Hot Doggy Bone, Poodle Pinata, bracelet making, we ate lunch, ate cake, drank milkshakes and opened presents! Here are some pictures:
