Halloween, Election, and First Snow!



Well, Ella had many first's this past week. Her first Halloween-we dressed her up as a pumpkin! It was a pretty uneventful day and for some excitement we carved out the inside of a pumpkin and put her in it with her pumpkin hat on. She didn't seem to mind it to much. We also had our first snow storm of the year. She really doesn't care for the snow suit that keeps her from sucking on her fists, but she is just going to have to get used to it. And the most important first for Ella this week is the amazing outcome of this years presidential election. It makes me so happy that our daughter can live in a country that has come so far. Besides being our first African American president, I truly feel that he will be one of the greatest. And some great news for our little town and my job, we passed a ballot issue that will allow the school to build an addition and I will hopefully have a classroom when I return to teaching (for those of you that didn't know, I was in a modular last year). So things are great! Lastly, Grandpa Don came up last weekend and spent some quality time with little Ella. He sure is good with kids. She just loved him and smiled at him all weekend!
