At the end of February, we were able to celebrate another birthday of one of the Girls. It's hard to believe that Elizabeth has turned 8! She is growing up right before our eyes... Here are a few things to remember about our baby....
1. She LOVES camo. Seriously. Loves camo! She loves to go out and hunt coyotes with Art, and for that, she feels the need to be "suited up". We bought her this buff for Christmas, to match everything else, and she wears it all the time....often even to bed! And no, Elizabeth doesn't need glasses - they are simply an accessory these days. If you look closely, you'll see that these glasses don't even have lenses. She just likes the look of them.
2. Elizabeth still loves to ride. This was taken one day at the barn, and there are often times that after she's ridden, Ellie Mae will remind us that she needs to "practice her tricks". She REALLY wants to be a trick rider. She asked for a trick riding saddle for her birthday, but that didn't happen...
3. The girl loves owls. LOVES. She talks about them regularly, sleeps with 2 of them, and is always looking out for our resident owl. She actually knows lots of facts about them as well, and can be found reading more in our bird book. We got her an owl watch for her birthday, which I don't think she has taken off since then.
4. Ellie Mae is a cutie. Bright eyed, always willing to help, laughs inappropriately (what can I say, she's her mothers' daughter!) and excessively.... This girl wakes up in the morning with a big smile, and goes to sleep with a big smile. She works hard to keep up with her sisters, and loves to cuddle. She's a keeper, this wee one... Happy Birthday, little lady!
