On Friday her and her sister spent the day at home. Camp is over and the three week summer school they are going to was off. Teri and I got home from work a little early and we got dinner going. Elena had asked for meatballs and spaghetti.
Elena invited over Emanuel, Frankie and Nastia's friend Angelica. Only Emanuel and his sister were able to make it. It seems everybody is always away when it is Elena's birthday, it's not always easy to throw an Elenapaloosa, Yes her birthday celebrations have been reclassified as Elenapaloosas, just like that lesser known festival. Grammy and Aunt Madeline were here too, as was Aunt Nancy, Amanda and Amanda's friend Deandra. We had dinner and cake and ice cream, compared to the other birthdays, this one was a little low key. It was nice. I think we were all a little tired from our day. Elena didn't get her cell phone yet. She will use it to the point that it will have to be taken away from her. She'll be as bad as Amanda. Some of her gifts were a key board, Zombie Lab and a hand made pouch by Grammy.
