Georgia, oh Georgia

We sure were pumped for the National Championship game last week!  We had a great time watching.  Do I have to mention the ending?  

We got Ellie to bed a smidge past her normal bedtime and let the rest stay up until the very (bitter) end!  Notice how Ellie is saying, "Umm...it's a little late isn't it Mommy?"

I'm not that experienced with selfies but this one was so funny because of Ellie's reaction.  Maybe she saw early signs of what was to come. Oh no!!!

Happy New Year!

December is always special!  We have some memories to share...

Here are the kids opening their "last day of school" presents. Clothes!

A trip to the grandparent's house.  Julia started developing a cold and ultimately could not sing in the choir for mass the next day.  We hated that but she smiled at Mommy up there helping out with the other singers.

Ellie did great through mass and liked watching Mommy in the choir as well!

Christmas Morning!!!!

The girls in the ball pit Santa brought!!!!

Visiting family and cheering for the Georgia Bulldogs!!!  A great win that night!

Freezing cold outside with Daddy and a very patient Aunt Louise who came all the way from New Jersey to see everyone!

Ready to go in yet are we, Ellie???  :)

Here's one of the many times Aunt Louise sat and visited with Ellie.  For those of you who may have forgotten - Ellie is named Eleanor Louise after her great-grandmother, Eleanor and great-aunt, Louise!

Ellie loves being read to!!

The 4 in their NFL team pajamas!!!  Ellie's team was chosen by her beloved Aunt Colleen who looooooves the New England Patriots and looooooves Ellie!

Heading back in after another play session!

Sister hug!

Happy New Year!!!

We had an early celebration after dinner!  Ellie showed us her lung strength for the duration of our little party!

Ellie and Papa!

Happy 2018 Ellie friends!!!
