13 Months






So I have been trying to decide what to do about Ellasen's monthly picture now that she is over a year. At first I thought that I would quit taking the monthly picture, but because I have lost so many "baby" things recently I thought maybe I would continue the tradition. Ella may have a different plan though...she is getting a little too mobile to sit for very long. I think I will still try to get a picture each month and continue to enjoy this documentation as long as I can. I will spare everyone the "What Ellasen Is Doing Now" list though for 18 months and 2 years. Unless there is some major development I will just take the picture and hopefully we will see another "Watch Me Grow" segment next November. Who knows, maybe we will take her senior pictures someday right here in this chair!

SBS Christmas Party

My Bible study had a Christmas party the other night and Ellasen and Tim and I all went. We had a great time! Thanks for the pic Kristen!

Ugly Sweater Party






Our friends Chris and Vicki had their annual Ugly Sweater Party last Friday and the Griffiths were there with bells on...literally. Tim's ugly sweater (a woman's sweater in festive Kelly green) actually had jingle bells on it along with white embroidered reindeer whose antlers have formed a heart. Mine had glitter puff paint and Ellasen's was slightly over decorated! We had a great time!
