Way to Go, Paul!!

This weekend Paul ran the 1/2 marathon downtown with his buddy/co-worker, Brett. We decided to make a weekend of it and used points to stay downtown. It was a fun getaway...as we jogged down to King William area and ate at Mad Hatters the night before and enjoyed our suite overlooking the River Walk. Paul had a blast running with Brett...nice job, P.J.!

Our Butterfly is Two!!

Elli turned two on Saturday and we had a small birthday party (she's not a fan of big crowds) at the zoo. She was a huge fan of the butterfly pavilion...where Uncle Brian taught her how to hold butterflies and she was so gentle with them. The sweetest memory that will be remembered forever is of Elli and the girls running around the grassy field with butterfly wings. They were so free and innocent, enjoying the flight. Landon and Griffin spontaneously became the butterfly catchers and what a game it became! Everyday is such a joy to spend with Elli, out butterfly blessing. Thanks to Maggie for the pics.

Our Lil' Holstein

We had so much fun on Halloween! We visited/met many of our neighbors and Elli was the cutest cow ever:) We also had an adorable Dalmation and Fire Fighter who collected candy with us.
