Elizabeth's 16th Birthday PARTY! -posted by katie

Happy Birthday dear Elizabeth! My sister turned 16 last week! Well, actually, her real BD is May 27th (yesterday), but we celebrated on May 23rd with a formal ladies party :) What fun--thanks to all of you who came and made Ellie's BD such a memorable one!

What do ladies do best (at least, most of them)? CHAT OF COURSE!
What a spread...
I must have been listening intently to something undoubtedly important.
A rather blurry pic of Nic :) The guys originally weren't at the BD (well, Robert, Dad and Mike were escorting ladies to the door from their cars) but then the guys had a surprise for Ellie--singing and dancing a sweet song made just for her! It was soooo funny!
I'm not sure what Patricia and Mary are doing! *laugh*
Ditto above :)
Yum!
Felicia, Mary, and Valerie.
