California: October 2009

We went on our yearly Horn/Christensen/Abate/Compton family vacation and had a blast. We headed to Newport beach the first day. Every time we go to the beach Ella tells me it is her favorite place to be. Never fails. The girl loves the beach. She could dig in the sand and chase the waves for hours. Good thing she has a Dad who can't sit still, just like her:) It was a little cold to be in a swimming suit but that didn't stop her from having a good time.

The boys played a sweet football game- Stewart was sore for day because he bit the dust a few times.

The funny things Miss Ella says

Stewart and I were trying to decide what to do with Ella so we were spelling out words. We talked about going to the p-a-r-k! We didn't even think she was paying attention. In the car she says, " I want to go to the p-r-ck and play." I don't even know how she knew what we were spelling. A few letter off but that is pretty good:)

We asked Ella if she wanted to go get ice cream after the park and she said, " I want strawberry ice cream with sprinklers."

We were shopping and I said to Ella, "you are a monkey," and she looked at me and said.... " I not a monkey I a child of God!"

Stewart and I are getting new phones in a few days. Yesterday I said to him, "guess what we get in just a few more days?", and Ella says to me (very excited) "PRESENTS."

The other night I was getting Ella ready for bed. I was brushing Ella's teeth in the bathroom and she was acting really silly so I called her a tool. She says to me, " no, I a hammer:)"

Ella's fav pastime is reading books. My Mom got her a book about the Nativity. We were reading it and she was pointing everyone out. She then pointed to one of the wise men with a white beard and said, "this king Triton." (The little mermaid)
