We all had a great time with Elly here, lots of memories, lots of pictures, lots of laughs and a little work!
Alyssa tried to stomp around in Ellys snow boots. I think Alyssa got more wear out of them here than Elly did. I guess she didn't realize how warm Colorado is and that most of the snow is gone.
Elly got some great shots of Alyssa.
While she was with us we were in the middle of adding on to our house. She willingly stepped in and helped us sand and paint. It was messy, but we were able to make a good time of it.
I think Alyssa will always hold a soft spot in her heart for Elly. Alyssa would ask where Elly was when she was gone and would run to her when she came in the front door. In fact, one time Elly and Jeff came home for lunch together and Alyssa was so excited to see them. Jeff squatted down and held his arms out for her, she ran over toward him, but right before she got to him she lunged into Elly. It was really cute and funny, we all got a good laugh out of that one, I think Elly loved it!
It was so wonderful to have her here so long.
She was able to get dressed up fancy for a dance. Jackie enjoyed helping out and watching her get ready. The girls thought she looked just like a princess.
From princess dress to work clothes - remember those muscles....
The kids loved having Elly there to play with them and she played a lot.
The classic Tickle Monster
And one final smile from Alyssa, Elly captured it beautifully here.
