Months ago, plans began for a combined 8th Grade Graduation Party with Ella and 3 of her best friends. Of all the decisions and details that went into pulling that off, one of my favorites was the idea to take pictures of the girls on campus to use for invitations and decorations at the party. Ansley's (one of the girls in these pictures) dad is a professional photographer, so he was happy to spend a few hours doing this for the girls! These are just a few of the over 300 that he took! There were individual shots of each girl and lots more with uniforms and school landmarks/signs I don't want to photoshop out! :)
I remember holding Baby Ella in my arms, rocking her in the rocking chair and praying specifically that she would always be surrounded by positive influences that pointed her to the Lord and made her a better person. Ella has an AMAZING group of friends; they are a blessing to all around them (these pictures show just 4 of the 9 in their friend group). They helped her thrive in and love Middle School. One the best parts of this party we threw was having each teacher we invited show up and then hug us, bless us with compliments about our kids, and thank us for raising such good-hearted girls. Proud!
