What a Week!!!!

The week started out with McKenna's birthday party on Monday June 1st. We had several girls over for Nail painting and a movie with popcorn. Then presents and cake. Then On Friday we had Ellyce's birthday party. Her Birthday was on Saturday, but because of the Baptism we held her friend party on Friday. We had planned to go to the pool at Three Fountains but the weather would not cooperate so we had them at the House. They painted ceramic figures and then we painted nails. We made homemade pizza then had a pinatta followed by presents then gifts. Staurday was Ellyce's baptism. It was so nice. afterwards we had a dinner at the house. About 50 family and friends came. Ellyce wanted to have babyback ribs. So, we had baby back ribs and short ribs and various salads and desserts. It was great! Ellyce wanted Mexican wedding cookies and Almond butter chocolate chip cookies and cream puffs and Key lime cheese cake. So thats what we made. Whew!!!!



Grandpa Bess, We love him!
Grandma Great! will be 98 in Aug.


Grandma and Grandpa Stucki, So fun to have them here!


One of Carolyn's friends from Minnasota sent this flower cake to Ellyce, So we sang to her and she blew out the candle. She was so thrilled.



At the baptism, She looked up and was so excited, she could hardly wait.





More pictures of the dinner. We had originally planned to have it in the back yard, but the wind was strong and cold, so we had it in the garrage.



Her is a picture of the men in the circle for the confirmation.

All in white, look at her hands, do you think she is excited.
