Ellie is 10.
She is a great kid and always so easy to please. She is always the one who "caves" and does whatever anyone else wants to do. So we wanted to give her a surprise. We asked her what she wanted to do- have a party with friends or family or go somewhere. She picked go somewhere (which we knew she would since she really doesn't like birthday parties- especially hers)
We ALWAYS take her to the zoo. So that's what we did.
She had a great time. She loves the penguin and flamingos but the highlight was the black bears. We got to watch them feed the bears!
She thought this was funny!! After the zoo we took her to bass pro shop. My sister then phoned us for dinner. (Which was totally pre-planned but unknown to Ellie). As we pulled in the whole outside of the house was covered in balloons and poofies. As we got inside it was just as decorated. She was totally surprised. She had an awesome cake and ate pizza until she almost popped!
The next morning we surprised her with tickets to calaway park. They had the best time. It was halloweenie and they got to do a scavenger hunt. We did tons of rides and ate tons of bad food!

The log ride was a huge hit. (penny's favorite)
It was a great and memorable 10th!
