An Attempt At Dance Class

 Ellie did a trail dance class … and Mommy thought she looked cute, but she definitely liked her gymnastics better 

Camping In San Antonio

One weekend we went camping right here in town ... we had a great time ! Ellie loved it ! They had a fun swimming pool and park area ...

daddy's girl ....

Daddy had to help Ellie use the digging toy ....

Ellie's Room

Ellie has really enjoyed hanging out in her room lately ... and she wants us to come hang out with her ... now you have to understand that Ellie's room is upstairs and she usually wants to hang out and play in the playroom ... On this particular day she was getting Daddy to lay down and take a pretend nap with her ... but a little while later she came down stairs and just went about her business, and when I asked where Daddy was she said "shhh ... Daddy night night ..." and he was ....

Gymnastics

Ellie has been enjoying her gymnastics class ... She actually got to be in the same class as all her little friends .... Naomi, Abby and Sarah Kate ... we are sad to see the summer class end ... In just a couple of weeks we will start the new fall semester .... This class has also been a big adjustment for Ellie because this was the first class that was without Mommy ... it took her a while to get used to that ... but we have come a long ways in this summer session !

We LOVED having Nana and Papa here for a couple of days... Especially Miss Ellie ... We love you so much Nana and Papa ! Thank you for making the trip to spend some time with us !!!! Hurry and come back !!!

reading a book with Papa ....

Having morning coffee with Papa ... (Ellie is actually having chocolate milk)
but she wanted to drink it like Papa ....

Helping Nana make biscuits and gravy .... yummy ... Nana's biscuits and gravy are soooo good ... I don't think Ellie makes anything without licking the spoon ...

Being very silly ... pretending to be a baby ...

Eating Nana's ice cream at Marble Slab ...

Ellie and Abby

One day before gymnastics class we enjoyed lunch with Ellie sweet friend Abby and Mommy's sweet friend Naomi ... (Abby's Mom ) Thanks girls for having us over ! We really enjoyed getting to spend some time with you !

Fun At Boots And Banty's ...

A new game Ellie likes to play with Banty is ... pretending that she is ..."In the jungle"

We got to spend a little time with Miss Kate and her Mommy Cara ... I am so glad they were able to come over to swim for a little while ... it was great seeing you ! And Miss Kate is a doll ...

There are some new kittens at the barn ...and even though she really tried ... that kitten wouldn't let Ellie get much closer than this...

art time with Boots ...
