Saddle up your horses we've got a trail to blaze Through the wild blue yonder of God's amazing grace Let's follow our leader into the glorious unknown This is a life like no other-this is the Great Adventure ---Steven Curtis Chapman
Elli was begging to go skiing so we consented...ok, not really, but she did smile while skiing and even danced at the end (pictured on bottom). She tried to ski/walk on her own, but considering the boots were 2 sizes too big, it was difficult. (the keystone instructor said she was the smallest kid he had ever seen skiing) We were so proud of our little skiier...she did awesome!
Elli has been loving life with Grandpa and Grandma Houge lovin' on her the last 3 weeks. Every morning she eats her oatmeal with grandpa and plays dolls with grandma. Today she even dressed up as a cowgirl! First thing in the morning she points to downstairs to see them. Yesterday we celebrated Grandma's birthday at a very nice downtown French restaurant (which was NOT specializing in kids) and Elli was such a trooper, waving at everyone and playing "make believe tea party" for 2 hours. Elli is going to be so sad without her grandparents next week!
Last weekend Paul had a conference in Fort Worth, so we rented a house and my parents met us there. We had a great time being together, touring the stockyards and downtown and playing cards. Elli could not get enough of Grandpa and Grandma and even signed G-ma and G-pa! What a terrific weekend!
