Snowstorm in Chicago- 5 inches of snow and Sadie!

Stairs with cousins

Sliding in Natchez

Swinging with Gran

Playing in Natchez

With her new found mobility Sadie is not afraid to play with her bigger cousins. The family was amazed by her fearless approach to the slide!

Cousins in Natchez

Sadie loved playing with her cousins in Natchez. The highlight was Sunday after the brunch on the swings at the bed and breakfast.

Natchez wedding

We all enjoyed our trip to Natchez, MS for Kate's cousin's wedding. All the Ewell's were there and we stayed in a bed and breakfast which made it fun for the kids to play and for the adults to take family portraits. Sadie had a sitter for the rehersal/wedding so Ed and Kate were able to enjoy time with family and friends.

Saddle with the cousins

Santa

We spent Sunday afternoon at the Saddle Club with the Youngs. Sadie had fun playing with her cousins and then she met the jolly man with the white beard.....

Holiday party

Sadie enjoyed our holiday open house and played with about a dozen friends on Saturday afternoon. Kate's downstairs design was put to work and everyone enjoyed the swing, toys and chalkboard.

SNOW!!!

"Dunking" at the Pool

Sadie loves her Saturday afternoon swimming. She enjoys the water and is kicking up a storm. Her favorite thing is getting the balls floating around the pool.
