Red Robin Fun!

On June 22nd Auntie Sarah celebrated her 22nd birthday!!  We went to Red Robin to celebrate!!  Charlie and Crystal (my Uncle and Aunt) were in town and helped us celebrate.  We had so much fun!  Here are a couple photos!

Meeting Red!

Ellee wasn't even scared of him!

The whole gang!

Teddy Bear Picnic.

Thursday was our last Sprouts meeting for the year.  (We take a break for the summer.)

When we first started going in September Ellee was only 2 months old and of course couldn't do much other than look cute. : ) Now, she crawls around, plays with all the toys and interacts with all the other kids.  It's amazing the changes that happen in 8 months!  It has been really fun getting to know other Mom's in our community.  I already can't wait until Sprouts starts back up in the fall!

This months theme was Teddy Bear Picnic.  Auntie Emily has been in town for the past week so she was able to join us, along with my Mom.  It was fun having them tag along!!

Here are some photos:

When we got there each child got a pair of Teddy Bear Ears.

I was surprised that Ellee kept her's on the whole time!

Sprouts always starts out with playtime (social time for the Moms)

Miss Ellee and her friend Wilson!

Ellee was very interested in the story this month! :)

SO hoops.

Today we went to Auntie Sarah's basketball game and awards banquet.  It was a fun game where they played against the local high school's boys basketball team.  It was so much fun watching her play.  She is really good!  She made about 90% of the shots she took!  I guess that arcade basketball game she got for Christmas is really paying off for practice! : )
I LOVE watching her play in her sports.  She is so dedicated and always has such a great attitude!  Not to mention she ALWAYS has fun!
The coaches gave out award certificates to all the players.  It was so nice to hear all the wonderful things they had to say about each and every player!  Most of the coaches are young adults and it is so amazing to me that they give their time to these kids with disabilities.  I can really see that they truly care about each and every player!

Check out the photos!

Going for it!

Nothing but net!! ( You can see the ball in the net!)

She shoots...and she scores!!!  AGAIN!!!

Her whole team.

Miss Ellee and her basketball star Auntie! : )

I just have to add...Auntie Sarah is so proud of her niece...It makes me smile how much she LOVES her!  She just had to show her off to all the players and their parents!! : )  LOVE it!!!
