January fun- Dad's 70th, Ellie's bobblehead

Chad and I supprised dad for his 70th birthday and we all went to Brazilian Carnival and did other fun activities without kids for the weekend. It ended up also being very helpful for mom who had been miserable due to a fractured hip and sacrum.

Ellie made Dolley Madison for her 2nd grade bobble head, and Valentines were also a highlight for her.
