Ellie's First Christmas continued!

After we left Iowa, we headed south to Kentucky for our Christmas with the Johnsons! We left the frigid 2 degree weather and believe it or not, it was in the 70's when we got to Kentucky! What a difference a few states will make. :)

Ellie got to meet her Uncle Josh for the first time and the two of them became really good buddies, for sure. Uncle Josh just carried her around and anytime she would make a peep, he would get up and walk with her or bounce her! She was one lucky girl for sure!

We had such a fun time with Grandpa Barry and Grandma Mary, Uncle Josh and Uncle Andrew and Aunt Kristin... Ellie definitely got spoiled at both sets of Grandparents! She is one blessed little girl...

Here are a few pics from our time in Kentucky!

We had such a wonderful first Christmas with our precious little girl!!! Thank you Lord for your many blessings in 2008!

Sweet, sweet pictures Jen! The first Christmas is such a special one. Lulu got her first teeth on Christmas day - now she has 16. I love Ellie's sweet little face and her perfect complexion. She is a doll. It looks like she is not lacking in the love department. Good for her!
