Week at Grandma and Grandpa's House in SB

Ellie spent the week up in Santa Barbara with Grandma Pam and Grandpa Mike (until he left for Comic-Con). Mommy went to Boston for work and to pack/move everything out of the house. Nick spent the last part of the week in San Diego at Comic-Con  with my dad. Hence, Ellie got some quality time up in SB with her grandparents and great-grandparents. Grandma Pam was generous with the snapshots from her cell phone and sent us something everyday. Thus, I will post them here.

Apparently Ellie did everything from chores to riding her scooter at my old elementary school. She even picked her own strawberries to put in her cereal one morning. She had a tea party with Great-Grandma Dolly and painted with Great-Grandma Van (who is quite the artist herself). There was a lot of time with stickers. And when Grandma tried to take Ellie to three (3!) parties in one day, she got plum-tuckered out and fell asleep in the car. There were new toys such as her new favorite, magnetic dress up dolls like she has at school. My mom's report was that Ellie did really well and was a lot of fun.
