My Baby Is 2!

Happy Birthday Eliott! It's been a crazy, topsy-turvy, smile filled 2 years :) I love you Elly Belly!!!!

To D.C or Not D.C.?

The drama in our house over the last month has been focused on the annual middle school trip to Washington D.C. Elisse REALLY wants to go. I understand, the trip itself sounds awesome! All the sights in D.C. and a side trip to PA to see the Liberty Bell and the such. ALL her friends are going. How much fun would it be to fly across the country and see all the historical sites, in such a historical year, with your friends? When you're 13? All for the low, low price of $1500...ahhh...that is a lot. I think, maybe, if we take a mini vacation instead of a faraway one (aka drive around Colorado, which is a pretty sweet place) we can afford to send her. Now I just have to figure out how not to be a nervous wreck the last week of October when I put my baby on a plane without me and send her on her way...
