Ella's Second Birthday

Our niece, Ella, turned two and we enjoyed a birthday party up here in Ohio with the Hopwoods, Hertles and the usual crowd. Of course Jenn made the cake; a wonderful strawberry cake with strawberry buttercream (her best yet) with a layer of ganache for a jolt.
And just to spice it up a bit, here's a sample of how Lydia dresses herself in the morning. She loves wearing tights, saying, "Pants don't look pretty. Princesses don't wear pants."
