Home for the Holidays...

The day after Christmas I was able to go home for 10 whole days! I realized that I hadn't been home in almost 2 years so I had many Cincinnati favorites to fit in! Here is the trip in replay...

This sweet thing was blessed and I was happy to be able to be there to witness it. She was the most loved one out of the whole trip!
The proud parents!
The very proud grandparents!
Ella's second favorite aunt:)
We played a lot of games. Quality family bonding!
We rode on a little ferry across the Ohio River to a town called Augusta.

We stopped and had a famous Marshmallow Coke. Don't say gross until you have tried it!
The Cincinnati Zoo Festival of Lights. No, Jonathan is not packing on the holiday pounds that is little Ella in his coat:) 
My ULTIMATE favorite place to eat when home! I am easy to please!
We had a wild New Year's eve party!
The man of the house himself.
Dave was able to get off work an fly in for a few days to meet the little peanut. Needless to say he also fell in love with her!
We went to a little coming out party for Ella. 
 
Is he really a dad? Never a straight face!
 
The party girl. Isn't she just so stinking cute!
You can never get enough of her!
For some reason Ella always found the ceiling more exciting.
We went to the Khrone Conservatory. 
  An indoor rain forest! It was very pretty.
A trip would not be complete without Skyline Chili.
We saw Avatar in 3D. Amazing movie and the 3D was pretty fun too!
We had an amazing time going home. It went way to fast, but we were happy to get to spend some time with my family.
 
Thanks Mom & Dad for a wonderful visit!
I just had to toss this one in here:)
