A Few Peeks at Our Week

We visited our friends the Rileys last weekend in Abilene and drove around looking at Christmas lights Saturday night. Jackson shared a nice ACU ball cap with Ellie that went well with pajamas and pearls (so difficult to coordinate, you know.)



She sported another awesome chapeau choice at breakfast this week. This Big Bird ski cap was mine when I was a kid. Here she is cooking up some eggs and coffee in her kitchen.
