Birthday Celebration

We had a great day! Matt & I both had to work today so once 5pm hit, we were ready to celebrate.

We started with gifts from Mom & Dad. For the most part, Ellie wanted to play with the camera and boxes more than her gift....

After gifts, we moved on to dinner at Red Robin with Grandma Hoffman, Grandpa Hoffman and Uncle Matt.
After dinner, the fun started!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Have you ever witnessed a one year old with a sugar buzz? Check this out:

HAPPY BIRTHDAY ELLIE!

Yep, our baby is one year old today! We can't believe how fast this past year went. It's been SO fun and Ellie is more of a joy every day.

We'll be doing some family celebrating tonight - look for pictures tonight.

Thanks for all of your birthday wishes!

Easter Extravaganza

The Easter bunny was really good to Ellie this year! TWO Easter baskets...... can we say spoiled?
I guess it's because he knew Ellie was great in church on Easter morning - and has her first birthay next week!!!

We had a great holiday - check out the highlights!

Easter Egg Hunt at Lake Erie Metropark with the Plozais




Ellie & Devyn - they both look thrilled to be there, don't they?

Ellie really didn't care how many eggs she could get, only that the ones she had made noise!
I shopped for a perfect Easter dress for a few days. And it was next to impossible to get Ellie to stand still to take pictures of the dress I bought so this was about the best I could do.... get her to stand watching TV!!!



And - here is the evidence of Ellie being spoiled.....

We hope you all enjoyed your recent holiday too!!!!
