Ellie Turns Ten in Spain!

Where does the time go?!  Our darling little baby that we just brought home from the hospital has hit double digits!  We asked what she wanted to do for her birthday while in Spain and her answer… “I want to be at the beach.”  So we headed south to a small resort village called Bella Costa (near Rota) where we spent the next six days.  Ellie was so excited, she couldn’t stop talking about how she was turning ten and all the plans she had for being at the beach.  The hotel was super, they baked her a special heart shaped cake (even put her name on it) and delivered it to our room candle and all.  We brought with us a few presents for her (a lamb Pillow Pet that was later named Pepe El Torro James and some other small manageable gifts).  It was a great day, full of sunshine, happiness and laughter; she is such a blessing!  Ellie still has her Birthday Party in Slavutich to come....I'm sure there will be another blog about that.
