Mid-August

Sunday after the memorial service for my great-aunt, Ellie and I headed down to Port Discovery for some running and fun! After Port D we wandered down to the harbor, there was a art fest going on and we had fun just seeing what was there. At Port D she played on the horses and tried to rope some cows!
She played in the convince store.
She got to bang on some tall drums...
... and some short ones too!

First thing on Sunday morning, even before we got ready for church, we installed Ellie's new booster seat. She is so excited about her big-girl seat... not only is it pink but she gets to use a grown-up seat belt. She told me that the grown-up seat belt looks like bacon and when I asked why, she said it was because it is brown! What a silly, silly noodle-head!
Good bye to our old car seat!
Ellie trying it out while I rearrange some stuff in the car.
The big girl had to carry her seat out all by herself!
On a rainy Saturday we did a lot of cleaning and organizing. Ellie found her old footie jammas and had to wear them all afternoon... Please remember, it is August and those footies are fleece! Well, here she is giving all of her fans a concert!
Friday evening we went and played with Joelle. The girls had a great time singing and playing. After dinner they watched Annie and loved it!!
