Lake Lowndes State Park, Mississippi

We made it through Alabama to spend the night in Mississippi. I always like camping in MS. because the campsites are clean and cheap. You cannot beat $20 for a lakefront full hookup campsite. 

It turns out that Ella is very cautious around geese. She latched on to dad when they came close to us trying to claim the campsite as their own and she did not take her eyes off them the rest of the evening. Thankfully, the geese did not like gordo. 

I enjoyed reading in the back and watching the sunset over the lake. 

Ella had another tooth popping out on the bottom! For a total of 7 teeth. 

We just had too...

Road trip home 2014

We are on the road back home to Alaska.

Any guesses on how many miles we will drive this leg of the trip?  

We camped at Chattahoochee Bend State Park for two nights. 

It's a new park and very nicely arranged. 

Zumba Instructor Certified 

Saturday I spent the day at the University of West Georgia dancing and learning Zumba. I am now certified to teach Zumba! I will be leading classes this summer in Talkeetna. 

Ella is still sick, but thankfully she no longer has the stomach bug. I can handle her having a cold a little easier but I am ready for her to be normal again. We've been battleing sicknesses since she received her last round of vaccines. She is also about to cut two more teeth next to her lower incisors. She currently has 6 teeth and she weighs 24lbs 4.5 oz. and is 31 inches long

Highlights of the past 3 months. 

-spending about two months at the beach

-Regina's wedding and seeing friends 

-spending the night at the Whitley Home

and having some good quality time with them

-being able to see Ella grow and learn. Her personality is really beginning to show. She loves calling gordo and feeding him. 

Words- mama, dada, gordo, nite nite, tata (my moms name) and no 

- Ella's first 1st birthday party with family and nearby friends. She received some amazing toys and it was so nice to see everyone and celebrate our dear child before we left Atlanta.

We are now driving through Alabama!
