Halloween!

Thought it wasn't Elsa's first Halloween, it was the first time she really got into it. Not only was she completely enamored with the carving and lighting of the Jack O' Lanterns; she was so excited about her chicken costume, that we could hardly get it off off once it was on.

Busy Week!

 This week was an eventful one in the life of Elsa Rose. Though it didn't seem to bother her much over the past three weeks, we were all excited when the day came that Elsa was finally able to get her cast taken off. Clearly the best part of the event was getting to wear the Tiger gown.

Once the cast was of f,we all geared up to take the three airplanes necessary to attend the Gutzler family reunion in Central Oregon.  Elsa had a great time playing with her cousins, visiting with her Great-Grandfather, and feeding the fish with her GG and Grandpa Dave. Her parents were grateful to soak in some Vitamin D and to feel the warmth of the sun one last time before the long Alaskan winter.
