Playing Dress Up

I just wanted to share these pictures of Ella wearing my shoes. She loves to go in my closet & pull them out. Nick helped her put them on, so she could pose for a quick picture. She loved it!

Happy 17 Months Baby Girl!!

New Year's Eve Gapen Style

We spent New Year's Eve at Chris & Erin Gapen's house this year and had so much fun. They live really close to our house, so it was perfect! It was very casual & laid back which was great! Erin made sure it was centered around the kids this year. We had hamburgers, hotdogs, smores, fireworks, and a bonfire. Ella LOVED the fireworks!

that were on someone else's plate


She liked playing with Reed's MSU helmet

watching the fireworks...sort of

It was really cold, so Eddie gave the kids a show

while they watched from inside.

Reed was so good about sharing his toys with Ella.

Thanks, Reed!

Nick was so proud of his fireworks :)
