So Much Snow!

Hey everybody, Ellen here!

While we were in Alexandria for Christmas we had to get out of the house and play in the snow.  I haven't had a lot of chances to play in the snow, but it sure was fun!

Grandma Carolyn and Papa Tim have a swing set by their house that I really like to play on in the summer.  Turns out, it is pretty great in the winter too!

The slide was pretty fun, but the swing will always be my favorite.

The only problem, with all of my snow gear on it is really hard to get out!  Which just meant that I got to swing even longer.

After playing outside, Grandma Carolyn and Daddy took Linden skiing...

So Mama and I decided to do some shopping.  By the time we got to Target I was so tired that I fell asleep on the walk into the store!  I also stayed asleep when Mama put me in the cart so she decided that nap time would be at Target, how great is that?!?

Mama and I had a great time and found lots of fun things to do,
Have a great day!

Sibley Park

Hey Everybody!  Ellen Here!

We have an awesome family tradition of going to see the Sibley Park light show each year, and this year did NOT disappoint!!

The weather was fantastic so we got to spend a lot of time walking around and seeing all of the lights.

There are lights in the trees, and all over the place, there are even lights that look like all of our favorite characters!

The best part, we got to sit on Santa's Lap!  Well, Sissy did...I just waved from the other side of the room.  Sissy told him what I wanted for Christmas so that was good enough.

I think my favorite part was the horse ride around the park.  The horses were so big and beautiful!

Sissy really liked the horse ride too.

In the very middle of the park is a giant tree made out of lights, it is just amazing!!  Mama makes sure we get a picture in front of it each year.

I really love getting to have all this fun together!  I can't wait for more Christmas fun!

Sister Love

Hey Everybody!  Ellen Here!!

Have I ever told you about the greatest person in my life, besides Mama of course...?  It's my best sister Linden!!

We may not always get along, but she sure has taught me some pretty great things, and we have gone on some pretty great adventure!!!  

Sissy has been with me through everything.  She made sure to take great care of me and taught me to sit nicely at the big girl table!  She even taught me how to use a fork.

We love sitting together and eating popcorn while we watch movies.  Mama says I am not quite old enough for popcorn, so I get crackers, but it is still great.

This is an old picture, but sissy loves reading me stories.  She has some pretty great books, every time she reads it the words are different!!

We even have matching sister jammies!  Mama says we aren't going to want to dress the same forever, I don't know if that is true...

Having a sister is pretty amazing!!
