Decorating the Christmas tree

A week ago we decorated our Christmas tree. Elsie tried really hard to put the ornaments on the tree but still needs a little help. Fortunately Will has mastered it so he stepped in and helped.

Some cute shots

I just wanted to share these cute photos.

One day I was minding my own business when all of the sudden I hear this clunking noise getting closed to me. It was Elsie in one of my high heal shoes. Elsie used to just try on our shoes and stay put but now she has started walking in our shoes.



Another day I realized she had been quiet for quite a while which is not usually a good sign. So I went looking for her and found her in her room with clothes all around her on the floor. And one pair of shorts around her ankles. She has been undressing her self for a while but now she has taken an interest in dressing herself. Mostly she does this by putting on pants with both legs in one leg hole.

Family Pictures

We actually remembered to take some photos this time we where out in Utah! We usually forget or get really lame pictures but I think we did pretty good this time.

Utah city Zoo

While we were in Utah we got to go to the zoo and it was even free!!! This is the first time Elsie really got interested in animals that we saw. She has been to the Kansas city zoo and to a petting zoo several times but has never taken much interest in the animals until now. What she really liked where the porcupines and meerkats which I do not have a picture of because they were behind glass. Shown below is Elsie measuring up to the size of a gorilla. She has a long way to go to catch up which is good by me.

Our Trip to Utah

For Thanksgiving we went to Utah to spend a week with family there. We had a great time and Elsie really warmed up to all her relatives!!

Fall fun in the leaves

Well we have a bunch of huge trees on our land and around it so we had a lot of leaves!!! Here are some of the fun shots of us playing in them, raking them and over all enjoying them.
