Ela's 12th Birthday Party 2009

Making a Birthday card for Ela.

We want to make one also for Ela, babcia.
Ready, set, got to go and climb that big tree in Ciocia's yard.

Getting all those monkeys in the tree is not easy work.

Ela, show me what you got.

Oh, Ela that looks great on you.

An electronic Rubik's Cube.

Oh, let's see..... what is it??

Oh,.... ah.... earrings from Babcia.
Daddy, rub my feet.

Can I sit on one side to help balance??
Watching the presents being opened.

Oh, Ela, that will look great on me also, can I use it one day???

Lily is Dziadzia's "przylepka" (She sticks like glue to him everywhere.).

Dig Suzia's new hairdo. She and her camera are the main photographers of the family.

Ela do you need help blowing out the candles?? Or are you still making your wish? Pra-babcia Hela with Lily. The oldest and the youngest in the family.

Yeah!!!! Ela you did it. Look both Stevie's were trying to help you also.
Wujek Bogdan and his cell-phone rooster-ringer were a hit of the hunt and seek game. Where is that rooster noise coming from???

Alex gives a smile to one of the cameras' that evening.

Alex and Lauren, cousins.

We had a fun celebration for Ela's 12th Birthday.
