Oprah!

Last Tuesday, we finally had Oprah tickets! My sister, mom, a friend, and I went to Chicago this past Monday night. We had tickets for Tuesday's show, which ended up being a live show about Autism. Jenny McCarthy and Holly Robinson Peete were the guests. We ended up on the 2nd row somehow, so that was great! You can see the back of my head and my mom's arm in this picture below - great shot, huh???:) It was a blast, though. We flew home Tuesday evening - very quick trip!

Yea for Fall Weather!!

It's beautiful here today! The weather is cool and the sun is shining!! I decided to take Ella outside to try to get some pictures made. Mom and I took about 30 different pictures, then the best smile was when she was finally in Grandad's arms.

It's a boy!!!

I'll bet some of you were thinking something a little different with the title!

Ella has another pet - Elmo Kitty. It started as "mommy", then went to "Sam", and settled with the name "Elmo Kitty". Ronnie often corrects me that it isn't a pet as much as a mouse defense weapon for the fall! It's definitely cute, though.
