The Magic Number

We can't believe Lauchlin's niece, Miss Ellen McLaurin Spangler, is three today!
Here she is on her birthday last year...

And, then, just last month...

We celebrated Ellen's big day a day early at McDonald's. Too bad 30th birthdays don't come pre-packaged like they do under the golden arches — except, of course, with adult drinks and without the creepy, red-headed clown!
Happy birthday, Ellen!
