Elise had quite a weekend last weekend. She celebrated her first birthday, or as we called it, her "first birthday extravaganza!!" Her actual birthday was on Friday. And she had two birthday parties. On Saturday she had one at Grandma Ellen's house, and on Sunday at Grandpa Mark's house! Her auntie Holly made Elise two separate little cakes, one for each party, and boy did she tear into them! There's a bunch of pictures above of her devouring her two cakes, as well as some other pictures from her parties. Elise's favorite moment was when we all gathered around to sing her happy birthday. The look on her face said "A whole room of people....singing to me.....how fantastic!!" When the singing and her own personal cake happened the second night in a row, she was sure this is what life was going to be like from then on....every night people sing to you and give you a cake!
