A great time was had by all. Especially miss Ells.
There was bowling, Mall-of-America-ing, ride riding, Lego Land-ing, cake decorating, present opening, Happy Birthday singing, hugging, smiling and lots of fun.
Oh and it snowed 18".

A great time was had by all. Especially miss Ells.

Happy birthday, sweet Eleanor!
Our girl is three years old.
Hard for me and Mindy to fathom.
It's unbelievable that all this joy has been crammed into three short years. At the same time it's impossible to believe that it's already been three years.
Ellie is sweeter, smarter, funnier and more amazing every day. And that's an entirely objective judgment.
This weekend we celebrated with family and friends (head cold be damned) and today (the real bday) we'll have a snack party and school then probably hit Ellie's favorite haunt Tutta Bella. Then Mindy and Ellie are off to Minnesota for more celebrating.
Thank you to everyone who's helped make Ellie's year so great. She's a very loved little lady and we all feel extremely lucky.
Happy birthday, sweet girl.

Big kid bed. Big time hit.
Someone is turning three in a matter of days and as an early gift, we unveiled our new big kid bed/bedroom when Ellie got home from school today.
Suffice it to say it was a hit.
We've been "playing" go-to-sleep all evening.
That said, it's 9:20 and she hasn't gone to sleep yet...
The coolest part is that Ellie's new bed used to belong to her Grammy.

Back from the mountains
We had an awesome time in Suncadia*
Tons of fun swimming, sledding, snowshoeing, eating, playing.
Videos on the way...**
*Despite our loud/vomiting neighbors.

Best of both worlds
So as fun as Hanukkah was, Ellie was pretty fired up for Christmas too.
And for good reason, she had a very fun morning and got some super cool gifts from everyone in Minnesota.
We love the Cars Legos, cute clothes, great scarf and...
AWESOME DJ TABLE/KEYBOARD!
Thanks, everybody! Love you and Merry Christmas!
More pics and videos to follow...

HAPPY BIRTHDAY, MOM!!!!!
We love you so much.
We're so sorry we didn't post this yesterday.
We're going to use knee surgery recovery as an excuse. Again...
Did we mention how much we love you?

SNOW DAY!
By which I mean, lots of snow. So much that they closed Ellie's school down early.
Been snowing since 4am and it's still coming...

Rocking it at Yo Gabba Gabba
The live performance of Ellie's favorite show, Yo Gabba Gabba made its awesome way to the Tacoma Dome* this weekend and we were lucky enough to take in all the fun.
Highlights included free DJ Lance glasses, a flashing glowstick for Ellie, beatboxing by Biz Markie, a confetti bomb going off in my face and Eleanor's pull-up letting loose on Mindy's leg.
A great time was had by all.
In the words of the aforementioned DJ Lance Rock, "Listening and dancing to music is AWESOME!"
I'll try and post a movie or two tomorrow.
