Ella's Birthday









Ella turned 4 on the 30th. Bleu had made an eggless cake the day before. However, one of the problems with eggless cake (we just learned) is that they crumble easily. So the cake wasn't beautiful and Bleu refused to use it for Ella's cake. So we ended up doing sugar cookies instead of cake (hence all the pictures of the kids decorating cookies). It worked out well since Bleu's mom had sent us a lot of stuff to decorate cookies with (it was meant to be a Christmas Eve activity, but we didn't get it until after Christmas). So we spent the evening decorating cookies and then having Ella open her gifts.

Happy birthday Ella! The cookies are a great idea-they turned out very cute! And looks like Christmas was great-they look cute in Michelle's hats & scarfs!

Happy Birthday Ella! I love the chef hats. The kids look darling! I think making cookies are so much fun...especially with kids.

Thanks for the pics.
