I know. . .I know . . .

To all our faithful followers. . .

I know it has been too long. We have lots of pictures to share of Miss Elle, but I've had little time to download them. I'm also feeling progressively more guilty about not sending photo cards this holiday. (No . . .yours did not get lost in the mail). To be honest, after being hit with a $3,000 sewer fix, we just needed to cut costs. I promise to upload some photos soon.

Elle is getting so big. She had a fantastic Christmas. Shawn and I hope that each and every one of you had a blessed holiday, and wish you health and love in the New Year!

All our love,
Adriane, Shawn, and Elle

Halloween 2010

HAPPY HALLOWEEN! On Saturday, Elle got to ride the New Hope/Ivyland Trick-or-Treat Train. So fun! Not only was there a train ride, but candyland fun topped off the night. Thanks Granny, Pop-Pop Dutch, and Aunt Christy (and Baby Nathan too)!
Love you, Elle

A little pre-train ride feast!

Cheers Granny. . .I wonder who she learned that from. Shawn?

Glow Necklace!

Notice the glow necklace on Pop-Pop Dutch's head. haha

Mmmmm . . . Candy!

Knoebels

What an awesome day! Elle got to spend a whole day at Knoebels with Mom, Dad, Pop-Pop Ray and Mom-Mom. We had so much fun, and I honestly think that Elle rode every single ride that was made for little kids. To say she had a blast would be an understatement.

See for yourself. . .

She was so proud of her big girl driving abilities

Ring the bell!

The Sky Slide was AWESOME!

A bit scary. . . but, OH, so fun!

That's my girl!

What a great day. Thanks to Mom-Mom and Pop-Pop for all the fun!

~We Love You~

Family!

Amidst the daily chaos of our busy lives, we always seem to forget to capture "family" moments. We stole 2 frames before heading to the beach in Ocean City, NJ.

Wonderland Pier!

I was 27 the first time I ever went to the Boardwalk! Having spent my childhood on the Outer Banks, NC. . . it was just something we never did. I was so thrilled to be able to take Elle to both places this summer. Wonderland Pier in Ocean City, NJ was a wonderful place to spend the evening, and we had so much fun watching Elle enjoy the excitement of all of rides. She had a blast!

A BIG THANKS to Uncle Jonny and Aunt Beth for hosting us in OCNJ!!!

Riding on the frogs with Uncle Jonny!

and . . . again!
