Last Birthday Pics

And just like that, Ellie's birthday is gone.  The Birthday Banner on the mantel is down and won't go back up until Brian's birthday in January.  Luckily we have Halloween, Thanksgiving, Hannukah, and Christmas to get us through and satisfy our cake and candy cravings!  I love this time of year.

Chocolate milk and leftover birthday cake is the best afterschool snack ever.

Seriously?  This kid kills me.
