RD and I took El out to a fun restaurant (Pocco Piatti) on her actual birthday. We let her pick whatever she wanted on the menu. So a big girl lemonade and a chicken/pesto pizza it was! It was such a fun evening with her. But man we wish we would have had the waitress take a pic of the 3 of us. Ugh!
Then came build-a-bear (at the mall) with Nana, Papa, and Kiki.
WOW...4 is the perfect age to do this. El ate it up!!!
I have never seen her so proud of something. She wanted to walk AHEAD of us with her new bunny.
We are sticklers for getting sucked into those nasty dirty germ-infested "rides" at the mall that cost $1 and last for 30 seconds. Oh well- the girls did LOVE it! :)
And Today...The Mitchell family surprised us and came to visit us for the afternoon. 6 hours of hangout time---4 + hours of drive time for them. MAN did we feel loved!! :) The kids had a blast and we had some good talk time, shared a yummy Italian meal together (cause that's what we do best) and loved every second of it! El learned how to do a summersault (thanks to Uncle Josh) and we all enjoyed RD's famous chocolate peanut butter smoothies. What a day, what a day. Thanks guys for making that trip--we are so thankful for this friendship.
RD says he thinks El is posing for Cosmo or something in this picture. Hilarious.
One big happy family. Except for that it's CHRISTY in the picture and not me. HeHe----looks way too comfortable, huh? Especially since her and I look alike. Yikes! :)
I mean c'mon! What a pic!
Silly faces---I love it!!
Hard to get a good pic of 4 (tired) squirrely kids!!
