Day 86--Short Sleeves!

As per usual, our house was host to eleven kids this afternoon. Thankfully it was a beautiful day and they played outside for most of it!

Day 84--Unlinked

Not a great picture of our modem, but shows the red internet light on. It is so discombobulating not having phone or internet.

Ellie and Elder Packer both blew out the candles on the layered pudding cake Spencer and Emma made for the occasion. Ellie has hardly taken off her princess dress since receiving it and is totally basking in all the attention she gets from old ladies wherever we go.

Elder Packer may have been a little embarrassed he shared his birthday with us after I put it in this week's program so the whole ward would know.

Day 81--Queen Ellie

We did a little birthday celebrating a day early. Although Ellie was completely exhausted and went back to lie down in her bed three times during the festivities she still had a great time as Queen for the Day! (more pictures coming)

Day 80--Spontaneous Jousting

I had received buy one, get one free coupons for this cool place called, "Medieval Times" up in Maryland. It looked really fun, but I didn't know when we'd ever have the time. When the big youth fundraiser (mulch madness) ended a few hours earlier than expected, we spontaneously decided to take advantage of our coupons before they expired. The food was average, but the entertainment exciting and unforgettable. I still haven't figured out how to take really cool indoor/low-light pictures, but I like how this one of Emma showed the dinner on metal plates (no utensils) and the exciting knight tournament going on in the arena. Very cool!

Day 79--Watch out!

You don't want to get chomped by these massive teeth. Of course with the amount of time Ellie spent brushing and flossing them, at least you'd know they're clean. Field trips to the dentist are always so thrilling!
