Proud mom moment
On Saturday Ellie Tresa Laney and I went to the spring craft fair. while we were eating, Ellie had to go to the restroom really bad. When Ellie has to go to the bathroom really bad, she means now. Behind her in line was a very pregnant lady Ellie was nice and decided to let her go in front of her. Ten minutes later I want to check on her and Ellie was still going to the bathroom. When I went in there she told me that she let a lady go in front of her because she was pregnant. I asked why she did that. And she just told me "isn't that what you're supposed to do". I just want Ellie to know how proud of her I am to think of others and to always be kind.

Seven is Heaven
Happy Birthday to My Ellie June
My Ellie is quite the gal. I have noticed in the last 6 months that she went from a little girl to a little lady.
7 things that I LOVE about my Ellie are:
1. She is very protective of her sister.
(If Laney could speak she would tell you that she can get away with anything she wants and Ellie runs to her rescue 20 times a day!)
2. She hates to love school.
Ellie is a fantastic student. She comes home every night and does her own homework and hardly has any questions. She reads about 4-5 books a night and only wants to test on her library book because she doesn't want to go to the effort to see if any of our books at home would pass. She is OCD about making sure she spells her words correctly and on her time readings she has to beat the first time or we do it again. (I am so glad she is more like her Dad when it comes to school.)
3. She LOVES LOVES LOVES animals. Always has always will.
Grandpa Val got her a horse and she has renamed it Cherry. She loves to ride in the summer time and has gotten pretty good. She fell off this summer and landed in a huge pile of poo... to say the least she freaked more about the poo then the fall. Ellie loves to pet and love on any and all animals. Except nana and papas dogs. She's not a fan and yells at them every time we go over there.
4. She has a very tender heart.
She worries about everyone and hates to disappoint people. This is a far cry from my 5 year old Ellie who was mean and hadn't quite figured out RESPECT yet. If she hears me talking to Layne or anyone else about someone else's problems she worries about them too. She makes her self sick worrying about anything and everything that has to be done. She has grown to love Charlee and that is HUGE.... Ellie and I went to lunch and as we sat down to talk just her and I her first question to me was, "Mom, How do you get along with out me while I'm at school?" Like she's really worried how I am and wonder that I'm okay!
5. She is the best big sister in the world.
I say that all the time but it's so true. I wish I could video them all the time because Ellie is so genuine and sweet with her. Laney could come up and punch her in the face and she would not say a word about it. She doesn't fight back and gives into anything and everything Laney wants. She loves her sister that is in heaven and talks about her frequently the older she is getting the more we look through our blog books and talk about her. She remembers some things but just mainly says her name so Laney will know she had a big sister named Jayci.
6. She really is funny.
She says things to Layne and I all the time that make us laugh. She uses such BIG words that a 7 year old should never know how to use and she uses them correctly. She always has some come back to everything you have to say. I wish I was half as witty as she is.
7. She is my mini me.
It makes me laugh every time I hear her dad say. You are so much like your mother sometimes it's scary. He just hates it cause there is two of me and that is twice the opinions. She has to have a plan 24/7. I used to be like that until I realized how annoying it was. She's ask me and I'd ask Layne. Its funny how I've changed because I see things in myself through her that I don't like. Hopefully she'll figure that out when she has a little girl of her own someday that is exactly like her.
Ellie,
I love you! And am so proud of you! Continue to be the sweet polite girl that loves everyone. Always remember who you are and where you want to be.
Love Mom!

Sealed for Time and All Eternity
November 2, 2013
Brad and Kassie tied the knot. We could not be any more excited to have a new aunt and sister in law in the family. The day was beautiful and super nice outside. I don't know if they could of picked a better day for a fall wedding. Laney and Ellie enjoyed playing outside, running all over the place. I tried to catch a few pictures of my girls but Laney was not a cooperative 1 year old. She was on zoom the entire time. After pictures were done we went to the Mandarin House for dinner. It was yummy!
