It is a lazy morning at home,

but Ella is busy lining up her dolls

for pictures.

She's so focused on this.

She shows me the pictures when she's done.

That afternoon, we catch the Cumming Christmas Parade.

Marching bands.

The girls are loving it

and loving time together.

Cool old ladder truck.

I was worried that the Shriners wouldn't have their little cars, but they do.

They even have a few with a twist.

Nice.

A small, bizarre little troup.

Ella loves the big floats.

Santa closes the parade.

A few days later, we take a couple of pictures of our cute little girl

and the hairdo her mommy gave her.
