Part of what I love about the girls' names is that they were both popular 100 years ago and many people with those names are now great-grandmas. Both names evoke a vision for me of sweet old ladies rocking away together on a porch. I pray Ella and Sadie will live meaningful lives full of love and will be enjoying each other on a front porch somewhere many years from now.

Father's Day 2008

We had a fun Father's Day Brunch at our house with my parents, Marissa, and my grandmother. Lots of good food, being amused by Ella, presents, and best of all we watched the Father's Day episode of the Cosby Show from 1984 which my family knows by heart-it was great!


Marissa's present to Chris-mimosas-which he loves!

A card she colored and a big hug for Popeye :-)

Chris in his new office chair! I was SO excited about this present and very sneaky :-) Out of nowhere two nights ago he almost bought one online and I FREAKED out but tried to play it cool and insisted that he needed to sit in it before buying it and though he thought I was crazy, he went for it-disaster averted and surprise saved :-)

Being the only grandchild on my side, Ella makes out like a bandit. Even on Father's Day she got presents!

Ella had some sweet moments with GG reading Daddy's new book about the VT Hokie's Game Day (really a gift for Chris and Ella). My grandmother thought the Hokie Bird was a monkey-oh well :-)
