Happy Birthday Elliott!!!!

Today little otter is 3. I just can't believe that it has been 3 years since He came to our family.

Over the weekend we had a big party for him. We had a change of location due to the rainy weather, but other than that and the crummy cotton candy machine it was great. We had a Big Top Birthday party complete with a clown (Bodee Clown) and moonwalk. The kids played in the moonwalk, picked lollipops in search of a blue tip for a prize and even had their picture taken behind a photo board of a clown. The cotton candy machine I got for the party was a bust, but the cupcakes were a hit.

Elliott got lots of fun toys and a frog. He named the frog "Genie" and he gets to feed him 6 live crickets twice a week! Thanks to our friends Tom, Natanja, Johnny and Susan. We have great neighbors.

It was really fun to have my parents here for the weekend. A weekend w/ them is always a blast. Elliott was really sad that they had to go home. Maybe we will visit MO after our visit to FL.

The other big news is that Chas took steps yesterday!!! Yup, the little fella has been crusing on furniture for a few months, but not trying to walk until yesterday. He would stand and take a couple of steps from one person to another or from the ottoman to the chair. It is really fun to watch him grow.

Happy Birthday to Elliott and Happy day to you!

Love,
