a birthday celebration

We had a special family birthday celebration for Miss Elise who turned three last week.   Eli was spoiled with presents and love from her grandparents.   The most memorable moment though happened while grandma Connie, mom, and I were keeping Elise and Finn distracted in her room while dad, Evan, Lucie and Quinn carried the play house from the garage to our back yard.  This play house has been under construction in our garage by my dad and Evan for the past few weekends as it has taken 10 hours for 2 people to assemble.  My dad was so excited to see the expression on Elise's face when she saw it.  So anyhow, as we were distracting the kids in Eli's room, which faces the back yard, Elise happens to look out of her window at the exact moment they are carrying the house to its new location.  She yells out in the most memorable way "Ohhhhhh a house,  I LOVE it!"  She has never use the expression "I love it" before, and though it is hard to describe in words, her reaction to seeing the house was absolutely priceless.  What a special birthday for our big girl.
