Ellie's First Bachlorette Party

I was in my early twenties when I got to go to my first bachlorette party - and here's Ellie going to one before she's even three months old! LOL She even dressed for the occasion in baby lingerie: pink lacey ruffled rumba-bottom panty hose and a garter headband! She even got to wear beads like the rest of us! The Bride-to-Be was Kelsey, her Matron of Honor and sister, Amy. It was a fun evening:)Doesn't she look so adorable all girlie and dressed up!?!

Congrats Kelsey!!!

Saying Goodbye After Breakfast

The last day we were in Jamestown, J and Lori suggested breakfast at their favorite restaurant, so we met there and had our last meal together before Dave and Alvana and us headed to Mike and Paula's for a get together. J and Lori saying goodbye to Ellie

Highlights of the Crosby Reunion

The Crosby Family Reunion was on Thursday, July 23rd, but we drove up to the campground in Chautauqua Heights on Wednesday the 22nd, the day prior and checked in before everyone else. We rented a cabin instead of a lot for a tent since we had the baby with us this year. We stayed thru Saturday and left that afternoon for the 26 hour long drive back. One of the highlights of our trip, was stopping by the huge Jamestown Harley Davidson dealership and getting a t-shirt for each of us and a Harley collar for Starry:)
