I hope this means more books available for Kindle and available on the publication date. I seem to have looked at a few books who were not available on the Kindle until after the hardback had been released. Might have something to do with the publisher’s profit on each item. I would love to see digital [...]

Obama continues to smear opponents Sat, 06 Sep 2008 19:02:40

Ella’s Thanksgiving Vacation

Filed Under All about me

Ella and her parents took a trip to the chilly climes of Northern Minnesota for Thanksgiving. Ella got to see her grandparents and experience the food and fun of the holiday for the first time. Her are a few pictures from the trip.

After a fun flight from Columbus to Minneapolis we checked into a hotel. Ella’s dad wanted to watch The Game (UM v. OSU) the next day before heading up to Grand Rapids. The hotel bed was quite comfortable. Ella thought so too:

In case you can’t read the t-shirt Ella has on, it reads “A good daddy is hard to find (but the couch is a good place to start looking).”

Our stay at stay at the hotel was marred by a last second Michigan loss. Ella was having a hard time dealing with it:

But Ella and her Dad managed to put this behind them and enjoy Thanksgiving. Ella enjoyed exploring her grandparent’s new house. Her is Ella helping her grandma get ready to do some baking. Was that half a cup or a whole cup?
