Ellie's 4th Birthday

Ellie just had her 4th birthday party.  She invited lots of friends and planned games: "Pin the Fin on the Shark" and "Fish fish Shark" (her ideas).  Mom and Melissa came to help out.  What would I do without my family!  We only had 2 hiccups: 1-no sunshine, 2-Ellie was still getting over Strep.

Ellie and Taely weren't bored...just soaking in the rays...wait, there wasn't any sun.  Maybe they were tired.

Have you ever seen more little girls in one ward?  And we are missing 8.

So glad our cousin came!  Thanks Taely for being such a great friend!

Once Ellie threw up, she felt a whole lot better.

First Violin Recital

So after 2 months of violin lessons, I had my first recital.  I performed "Twinkle Little Star", variation #5.  I stood up there with 4 other 5 year olds!  Brent, who was unable to attend, asked me if I kicked their trash!  I was nervous but did pretty good. 

Since then I have graduated from the Twinkles.  I am loving the challenge and have found that I'm not as talented as I thought!

Here's a pic of my teacher, Ashely Braithwaite.
