Rolling Elephant

We attended the Fall Festival tonight at First Baptist and Ella decided to roll around the gym floor in her costume. This was the happiest she was all evening. Remind us next year to just stay home with the kids and pass out candy...these carnivals are for the older kids for sure.














Not just a Dyson, but a PINK Dyson

I have always told Bryan that I want a Dyson, but he doesn't really see the need because we have a vacuum cleaner already that works pretty well. Actually it works very well, but Bryan has been using it to pick up after the painting and ceiling scraping projects and there is white dust all in it and one of the attachments broke. I want a Dyson because they are great! That's reason enough! It is quite the delima at our house.
Anyway, I was browsing through some blogs and I saw an advertisement to win a Dyson! Yeah! Not only would it be free, but it is in honor of breast cancer awareness month and $40 is donated to breast cancer research. Worth it? Absolutely!

Happy Birthday Bryan!!!!

Saturday Bryan turned 35! He handled the entrance into his mid 30's perfectly! I asked him what he wanted to do for his birthday and his response? Six Flags. Since it was his day, away we went with friends in tow! We actually went Friday night, but it was all good. We had a great time. The lines weren't that long and the weather was perfect! Bryan and I both agree that the best parts of the evening were the Titan and Batman rides and going through a haunted house with Amy K! She had us laughing so hard that we didn't have time to be scared. She spent the entire time with her face buried between her husband's should blades! I wish I would have had a camera! I'm cracking up just remembering it!
It was a great evening and I hope Bryan's birthday was everything he wanted!

Curls?

People always ask where Ella gets her curls from...so here are a picture of my brother (the blonde) and myself when we were kiddos and had some curl...granted, it's not as crazy in these pictures as Ella's usually is.

Picture Update

Daddy holding Judah Michael Kramer...4 days old!

Playing at the Kramers...I needed attention since everyone was looking at the baby!

At church tonight we went to a big party...here I am in party mode!











What is going on with the Mitchells?










I know...it never takes me this long to really update the blog. I probably won't write long, too much to do. We moved into our new house exactly a week ago today...wow. We almost completely out of boxes and things are starting to find their place. If you would like our new address and didn't get the email please let me know!! mitchells1016@sbcglobal.net Oh, and then I didn't have internet for 5 days and no time at all to blog when I finally did. Ella and I did her overnight stay in Bridgeport, TX last night at a nursing home to finalize her Medicare qualifications...we are WIPED today. E didn't go to sleep till 11:30pm and woke up at 5am...NOT enough sleep. Still enjoying having my mother-in-law in town and helping us get our house into a home. William is moving like CRAZY and all of my appointments are going great. Ella continues to impress her therapists and we are working on really getting good at the crawling position...crawling is around the corner...we just know it! Oh, and we started Aqua Therapy...physical therapy in the pool...it's on Mondays and she's starting to kind of understand...or at least not mind so much. I'm sure I'm forgetting something, but I'm including pictures to make up for it. Oh, and we got her new stroller...can't remember if I already told you all that.
