Trying on Mama's Shoes

Ellie is big on bringing your shoes to you if the shoes are laying around. She will even try to put them on your feet for you. She was trying to put on Ashley's UGGs, so I put her in them and she loved trying to walk around in them.

Wobbler I Christmas Party

I was able to get off a little early today and make it to the Wobbler 1 Christmas party. It was pretty funny. 12 wobblers sitting around a table pigging out on cupcakes, cheese, ham, turkey, and cookies. I think more ended up on the floor and faces than anywhere else. They followed the snack with a book gift exchange. I don't know if you can tell, but they are all wearing red shirts with a Christmas design that they decorated.

Kickin' It After School

Ellie tryig out a new hair style after school today.

30th Birthday Pics and Getting Ready For Church

Well, I had my 30th birthday this past week and celebrated with Ashley and Ellie over a nice sushi dinner. Ellie absolutely loved the edamamme which was a suprise, since she doesn't like hardly anything. We finished the night with a birthday cookie which is my favorite. It was a great birthday, especially since it is the 1st one since med school that I wasn't on call. I also put in some pictures of Ellie dressed for church this morning. I just couldn't resist she looked so cute.

Chillaxin'

We are having a relaxing weekend finishing up shopping, lounging around, and watching Tebow cry(made my weekend, even though the Roll Tide bandwagon will be unbearable at work this week). Ellie is finally feeling better and even Ashley has turned the corner. It has been a rough 10 days for my girls being sick, but hopefully we will make it thru the holidays happy and healthy. Anyway, here are a few pictures of Ellie cutting up and you can even spot her newest tooth on the top in a couple of the shots.

Deck The Halls

We had a busy day yesterday as we went to get the Christmas tree, put out the decorations, and had our Thanksgiving dinner. It was topped off by a big Georgia win over the nerds from the trade school that makes a disappointing season a little easier to swallow.

Cake

One of my favorite all time desserts is my Grandmother Sa's German chocolate cake and so I got a wild hair yesterday and decided to give it a try myself. This is my 1st attempt at a cake of any kind other than a package angel food cake and it actually turned out pretty good. Not quite as moist or pretty as Sa's, but for my first attempt I was pretty happy.

Our Little Indian

Ellie made a Thanksgiving outfit today at school.

Busted Lip

Ellie had a rough end of week and weekend last weekend. It started with a sinus infection on Wed. with a fever of 103, and lasted thru the weekend where she fell on a sidewalk and scraped her face and busted her lip. Tonight is the first night that she hasn't been fussy in a week. It's nice to have our sweet Ellie back and the lip and face have already healed. Looking forward to getting the Christmas decorations up this weekend.

 

Birthday Tailgate

It was a great fall day in Athens on Saturday which was made even better by celebrating Dad's birthday with a big win. The tailgate was fun and after a disappointing season it sure will be nice going back to work Monday sporting my Georgia scrub hat. Also able to stop by and see Mimi on the way home.
