Friday was Todd and Jessica's wedding. I was too busy during the cermony trying to keep Ellen from screaming and/or crawling down the aisle toward her daddy to pay much attention, but everyone said it was a lovely ceremony. We had a lot of fun at the reception, we're so happy for Todd, and we're so excited to have Jessica be a part of our family now! Congrats you two! I wish I had take more pictures, but here are a couple.
You can't tell what Ellen is doing, but I thought this was a cute picture. She's actually wearing Jessica's shoes, and was having lots of fun in them! What a little girly-girl.
Doesn't Jessica look amazing? This isn't the best picture, but she was just beautiful. Not long after this, a miracle occured! Ellen fell asleep in her stroller! We were happy because it allowed us to stay awhile longer and have some fun.
Saturday, we went to the Dutch store with Oma and Aunt Marty to see Sinter Klaas. Ellen was afraid of them (that's my girl!), so we took pictures next to him rather than on his lap. And of course we bought her some Dutch chocolate.
After this, we watched the Ducks win Civil War! I'm always proud to be a Duck, but this game made it easy to be a fan. GO DUCKS!
We also had some time to play with daddy's glasses...
And today we put up our Christmas decorations. Ellen wanted to help put the lights on the tree, but couldn't quite figure out how.
Now we're all sad the long weekend is over....

Sounds like a very busy Thanksgiving!!! Glad you had a good time, I saw the pics of Ellen playing the piano, she is adorable, and might have a great talent!!!! The wedding looked beautiful and all the pics I saw were amazing!! You guys look great and Ellen is too cute for words. I love the curls on her hair! Kellie told me all about the shoes, and Nicholas is going to be broke, if she is already into shoes.....We miss you guys and wish we could have been there to celebrate everything!!
Love it! So fast on the updating on the blog...I heard that Black Peter was a bit scary and from the looks of it, I am guessing so! I had so much fun seeing you guys TWO days in a row! I don't think I could ever get enough of Ellen! Her Auntie Kellie will help with the shoe fetish for sure!!
hahaha.....Ellen wrapped up in all those lights....oh dear!! The lights are always so "fun" to put up, but they look so good afterwards, that it's worth it! Can't wait to see all the decor. Great wedding pics too and congrats to Todd and Jessica!
