Ellie and I went to our local grocery store this morning to ring the Salvation Army bell. It was a great morning, and Ellie enjoyed really learning the true meaning of Christmas. She was so proud to wish everyone a Merry Christmas as they walked by. I think we have a new tradition on our hands! Maybe next year, Reid can share in the ringing, too!

Mommy and me having cuddle time at Hocking Hills.
Told ya, my hair can be wild! And you thought I was kidding!
Hmmm, Blue's Brother's perhaps?

Good job Ellie! You look like the perfect bell ringer. Unfortunately, I didn't see many bell ringers this holiday season. I just had the biggest smile on my face knowing you were able to enjoy this activity & give back at the same time! Great tradition!
What an incredible tradition!
I did this for many years with Sarah and Adam, but they were in Jr. High when we started....lasted through probably Adam's freshman year in college when he started working during break. I miss ringing the bells with them but now enjoy doing it with all the Triway secretaries. A GREAT tradition!!!
