Blast from the past

This was my dress. There are pictures of me in it when I was 33 months old. Here is Ellie at 31 months. When I wore it, it was near the floor. Ellie's a bit taller than I am. She was chasing the camera around and I got this shot. I love it.

Another of my former outfits, this one for tennis from Grandma Delpha Crane, Grammy.

Princess Party

Ellie and Ian were commanded to the father/daughter princess party of Princess Aspen (our friend Rob's daughter who was turning 5). She asked that all father's and daughter's dress up. The costume shop in Boise knew all the dad's who were going to the party! There was a castle cake and princess punch. It was quite a fabulous party.

If you please father, place my Croc upon my dainty foot.

Thank you good sir

Ellie really likes her "tirara" as she says.

All of the princesses gathered together.
