Ella's 2nd Birthday Party

On Saturday, we celebrated Ella's 2nd birthday (a day early) with a party at Mason's Mill Park. Our family and her friends from playgroup came to help us celebrate her big day. The weather was great (a far cry from last year's torrential hurricane rain and winds) and the kids really enjoyed the playground and being outside.
