Party Girl

Ella has quite the social calendar. I swear she's been invited to at least one party a month for the last six months.



Here we are at her friend Sammy's 4th birthday.

Lots of Snow

No trick photography here. The snow at Grandma and Grandpa's really is as high as Ella. That's over three feet!

Snow Day

Now this is what snow is for.


The snow-family plus their human pals. Ella is flashing her jazz hands.


Lucy wants nothing to come between her and her experience of the snow. Including gloves and boots.

The Trouble with Network TV

Or Creative Problem Solving

While watching Saturday morning cartoons together . . .

"Oooo, I need one of those!"

"You know, this is a commercial. They're just trying to make you think you need one."

"Yes, I do!"

"No, not really."

"Maybe Tayler needs one."
Translation: Then she can share it with me.
