A Surprise from Grandpa and Grandmother Ray

Ellie was so excited to receive

a package for her birthday
from Grandpa Ian
and Grandmother Sandra.
It came a few days early, and
we let her open it.
She has enjoyed playing with it
quite a bit since receiving it.

Cousin Lisa Comes to Visit

Ellie enjoyed a visit from
our cousin Lisa. Lisa
drove up in July
to spend two nights
us. Ellie was so sad
and disappointed when she had to leave.
