Happy Birthday Daddy !!

Jan 11th was Daddy's 29th birthday ! Ellie and Mommy are so thankful for the Daddy that he is !! We spent the whole weekend celebrating... On that Friday we took him out to eat at the restaurant of his choice ... Gringo's ... one of our favorites here is San Antonio.
Then on Saturday Nena, PawPaw, Aunt KK and Cousin Owen came to visit and celebrate with us ! It was also PawPaw's Birthday on Sunday the 13th ... so we had lots to celebrate ! On Saturday night we went to Incredible Pizza ... we had a blast ! We loved having them here and want to say thanks for making the trip to hang out with us !

Mommy & Ellie had surprised Daddy with a Wii for his birthday and everybody had LOTS of fun playing it !! Owen was surprisingly good at bowling ! :)

These last two are pics of Nena and PawPaw playing the boxing game !

Such A Good Helper

Ellie helped Mommy wrap Daddy's birthday presents ... as you can see she is lots of help these days ... :)

Playing Outside ...

Ellie loves to play outside ... cold weather or not ... so last week her Daddy and I bundled her up and took her out ... Mommy of course to a few pictures of her in her fun outfit ...

Our Cinderella

Although she wasn't into playing dress up as much as her Cousin Emmy ... we thought it was lots of fun to dress her up and that she looked very cute ... Even with the big bruise on her cheek ....

Daddy's little Princess ...

A Few More Pics from Clifton

It was unfortunate that just about all of us got a virus over Christmas ... but we did enjoy the extra time we got to spend together ...

Don't ya just love what Auntie B did to my hair ... two tiny ponytails ....

Christmas At Boots & Banty's

Boots and Banty gave this Tutu to Ellie ... and is extra special because our dear friend Lita made it for her ... It is ADORABLE ! thanks Lita ! Here she still has her pajama top on... but I promise to take lots more pics of her in it !!

Boots and Banty also refinished my old play kitchen for the kids ... This is so special to me ... when ever I've been asked... whats the most special gift you got as a child ... this has always been my answer ... Santa (aka my daddy) made this for me when I was about 3yrs ... and I spent many hours playing with it !! It is so neat to watch Tate, Emmy and Ellie to play with it !
Aunt Courtney made the kids the cute aprons ... she is so crafty and talented ! Thanks Uncle Rooster and Aunt Courtney for the thoughtful gift !

One of the things we got Tate was this giant horse book ... he loves horses !

Emmy loved her Disney stuff we got her ... as you can see, she is in her Cinderella dress, using her Cinderella brush to comb Minnie's hair ...

Christmas Morning

Mommy & Daddy where so excited about Santa coming ... Ellie got so many cute things ...

She got her very own Nativity ... she loves to play it !


Santa also brought a real Minnie Mouse dress all the way from Disney World ... (Mommy and Daddy must of sent Santa a hint when they went to DW last month) She also got a Cinderella dress ... I'll post pics later ...

She had lots of fun in her Disney Princess tent ...

especially when Daddy gets in with her ...

She also got a baby doll that Santa picked out himself ...

I put this picture on here because last year she fit in her stocking ...

She loved her chair that Santa brought her ... she thinks she is a big girl sitting in her own chair ...

On Christmas Eve Daddy read "The Night Before Christmas" to me ...
