The Hustle and Bustle Has Ended . . . For Now

The last few weeks have been non - stop for us. We had four birthday celebrations (Ella's birthday party with her friends, my birthday, Ella's actual birthday, and then Colin's birthday on January 1st). We also had three different Christmas celebrations with our families! Despite the busy schedule, we really had a good time celebrating and eating! However, we have had enough cake and cupcakes to last us another few months!

Here is Colin celebrating with some of his new birthday goodies:


We have also decided to introduce Ella to skiing this year. Grandpa Wilson got some skis and poles for Ella for her birthday, and we have signed her up for some lessons that start soon. We had to wait to get the skis and bindings fit for Ella, but once I picked them up from the ski shop, Ella showed no hesitation in wanting to try them out. We captured her first time on skis with some video.
