2012 JANUARY -- ELLIE'S 12TH BIRTHDAY

Shelley's parents came up from Georgia for a week, so we celebrated both Ellie's (Jan.) and Ava's (March) birthdays early with just our family and Tony & Becky the Sunday they were here. The girls each got the Kindles they were wanting, since they both love to read!

This week, they celebrated Ellie's birthday with the theme of "VOLLEYBALL" since she is on the Middle School volleyball team and loves it! Shelley baked her a volleyball cake. HAPPY 12TH BIRTHDAY, ELLIE!!!

2011 CHRISTMAS WEEK IN THE MOUNTAINS

Brent's family went to North Carolina to Johanna's family for the week between Christmas and New Year's. We went the day after Christmas with Brad's family up to the mountains for three days. They went skiing at Bretton Woods two days and had a great time. Ellie tried out snow boarding this year and the rest skied. Kent tried out the Zip Line there and went 3 times on that. We went swimming at the hotel in the evenings. The last day it rained and took away all the beautiful snow, so we just relaxed at the hotel and played checkers, etc. Drove by our old condo, Forest Cottage #4, which we owned with Roger and rented out for several years right on the Bretton Woods ski slope. It looked just the same as years ago. Lots of fun times with Roger's family and the kids there. Had to also check out the beautiful Mt. Washington Hotel. Both that one and the Mt. View Grand are gorgeous old hotels that have been restored. It was a fun relaxing time with Brad's family!
