Our Family

Ella's First Christmas, December 2008

With our families divided across two states, we knew Christmas was going to be a challenge. We tried to visit with everyone over the holidays, and it brought a whole new meaning to the 12 Days of Christmas.

First there was the Saturday before Christmas at Grammie Patch's. Next came Ella's first trip out of state to Grammie and Grandpa Gancarz' house for Christmas Eve and Christmas Day. Then, it was back up north to visit with Great Grammie and Great Grampy Ovitt the weekend after Christmas.

That was a lot of travelling for a little girl who had previously been house bound with colic. Ella really did great, and seemed to take most everything in stride.
