Ella's 4th Birthday!!!

Ella has been excited for weeks about her birthday. It probably didn't help that she found a bunch of packages in my closet that were for her celebrations. She had a hard time waiting for the actual day to come. We ended up celebrating a day early since Shar and Jer were still in town and leaving the night before her true birthday. We went out to dinner and then played on the beach in Waikiki for a while. Ella made some sand angels. She received some Barbies and baby dolls for her birthday, and all dolls have been lovingly adopted into the Burke family at this time. She LOVES the new outfit Sharshe bought her, and although she picked out her cake and loved looking at it, she didn't eat much of it. That's where Mom and Dad stepped up to the plate, literally, and helped her out.
