Yea, Colorado!

Ellie and I flew to Colorado yesterday to celebrate Thanksgiving and an early Christmas with the Ellis/Baxter/Galyon side of the family. Ellie did great on the plane. I was nervous (as always) that we might end up sitting next to a baby-hater, but we lucked out -- we had an empty seat next to us and the guy on the aisle had 8 kids and 21 grandkids! He was very understanding when Ellie fussed a bit on landing and I overheard him telling someone else that Ellie was an "angel" the whole time. It's so nice when strangers realize how sweet she is. ;-)

We're staying in Broomfield with Auntie Jamie, Uncle Eric and Cousin Alex; and Gaga and Papa are here too (they leave for Cozumel on Sunday). Ellie loves all of the activity and she's having fun showing off her new talent -- walking behind a push toy. Alex is being very brave and sharing her toys and the attention...most of the time.

Awh, sweet cousins!
Go Buffs! (Thanks Auntie Jamie for the cool sweatshirt!)

I'm so glad your flight went well! TX misses you but CO deserves some Ellie fun too:) Jackson was a little sad today at the park sans Ellie. . .
