Dallas October Visit

Last weekend we made a quick trip to Dallas for Luke's birthday party. We had a great time seeing everyone. We spent Friday afternoon with Jenny, Derek, & Jules. Nana & Papa came over to the Kellogg's for dinner Friday night & we enjoyed staying at Jenny & Derek's new house. Saturday morning we went to Luke's 2nd birthday party at a park downtown. Then, it was off to Meme & Pop's to spend the afternoon & evening with them, Cynthia, & Arturo.

Ella's 2 Year Portraits

Family Pictures

We had a photographer (husband & wife team) come to the house a few weeks ago. They got some amazing pictures of Ella & some great family shots. It was so nice & comfortable for Ella since we were in our own home. They took outside pics & set up a backdrop in the media room. They included a CD with every picture, which we have the rights to print wherever we like. I would highly reccommend them to anyone in the New Braunflels/San Antonio area!

1st ER Trip

Ella's 1st accident (happened a couple weeks ago) resulting in a trip to the emergency clinic. She cut her chin pretty good while playing outside. Nothing a little glue & butterfly bandages couldn't take care of. She was a tough little girl through it all!

Parade & Fair

I'm going to back up & post a few pictures from the parade & fair. It's so nice that every year Ella's bithday weekend is accompanied by the Comal County Fiar & the festivities that go along with it. This was her 1st year to ride the midway rides & we could not get her off them. We learned that the $20 all you can ride wristband is worth it - good to know for next year. She was such a BIG girl on the rides all by herself!

More Party Pics

Ella is 2!

Ella turned 2 this past weekend & had a BLAST celebrating. She had a cowgirl (and boy) party with pony rides in the backyard. Thank you to all the family & friends who came in from out of town & also to all our NB friends who showed up for the fun! Ella took everything in very seriously & definitely new it was "her happy birthday."
