Andrew, Judy & Colette Visit

Ellery enjoyed a visit recently from her grandparents and Aunt Colette. Our whole family was fighting a cold (what is sure to be the first of many- thank you day care!), but everyone managed to rally and we had a great weekend. Andrew & Judy took Ellery on a field trip to Mt. Hood, where she built her first snowman:

Ellery shows off her presents, as well as her dramatic side:
The weather thankfully cooperated, so we had lots of sunshine to enjoy the changing Fall colors. We had to say goodbye to Andrew too soon, and then Nana and Aunt Colette braved an entire night with Ell while her parents headed to Seattle on an anniversary trip. Dinner after 7:30! Champagne in bed! Bliss!
Our time together is never long enough, but it was packed with fun. Wish that pesky Midwest wasn't in the way so we were all closer to each other!
