Oh my tonight Michal took Ella to a birthday part at My little doll house. It is a place where the workers dress up like princesses and the little girls get to dress up and have a tea party. Ella loved it!! Pictures still to come but this is her when she got home. Hair done by Snow White and Cinderella and make-up and nails done by Cinderella. She was hot stuff!!!

Liv,
I am so grateful for you. I love being your mom! You are such a sweet girl! You have been such a blessing to all of us! We have all enjoyed watching your personality show through this year. You do have an opinion. You love all things Ella!! You are one of the friendliest babies I know (as long as you are with mom or dad that is). I love that you are a good mommy to your baby doll. I love that you answer to Liv, Olivia, Roan, R2D2, Petunia and Penny. You are getting so big and I can’t wait to watch you grow this next year. Please grow some hair this year so we can put pretty bows in your hair.
Love,
Mom
PS. Another cool thing about your birthday is that you share it with Matt Gilbert!! Happy Birthday Matt!!

Check out this dog, dixie. She is amazing. Jumping trying to get Ella’s boot off. Ella loved it just as much as the dog. And yes the dog finally got her boot off.

Ella loved it and was laughing so hard.

I wish I could of zoomed in on this picture. I hope you can see dixie has both paws around the boot.

I also discovered the most amazing setting on my camera called Advanced Sport Setting. It captured some really fast movement and apparently that is the setting I should use permanently with Ella.

Liv really wanted a turn but when she got up on the swing she changed her mind.

This is Stephen’s cowboy hat and the girls had fun playing with it.

Love this picture but had to give her a mini snickers bar to hold still.

We had a great day and the girls loved playing outside and running around. Ella especially loved running around the farm in her rain boots because she got to step in every puddle she wanted!! Love little kids and making small dreams come true!

Here are a few pictures of the outreach Kevin planned this weekend. It was our first Chosen outreach we had lots of our Chosen Leaders and the IMT’s come to help. We had such a good time and there was over 180 people there and 43 responded to the alter call. It was the best outreach! The Chosen dancers came and the IMT’s did some dramas and the dance group Urban Sent danced and we cooked over 250 hotdogs and had free bags of groceries for those families in need. One thing that is really neat is that this outreach was planned from scratch. There were many people that came and had divine appointments with God that day and we are so grateful to be a part of that.
What if we were too busy and missed out on helping people that really needed it? The area we did this outreach is less than 1 mile from where I live now. I drive by there every day. To think that there were so many people in there that needed help, or just someone to pray with them. On Saturday I experienced the scripture that says ,”don’t say four months and then the harvest, but lift up your eyes for the fields are already white unto harvest.”
Thank you to everyone helped with this great outreach! Thank you Jesus for allowing us to help these people!!!
Today when we got home from church Ella said, “mommy you want to know what I learned about in my class. I learned about the good Samaritan. You see there was a man that had been beaten up and 2 men walked by him and didn’t help him but then one man did stop and helped him and put bandages on him and cleaned him up. You know what one I am going to be? I am going to be like the good Samaritan and help people.” I wanted to cry. That was so sweet hearing my little girl tell this story. I said, “That’s the one I want to be too Ella, the one who helps people.”
