TaDa! Shelby and Ellie arrive in WA! This was Ellies first airplane ride, so it was nice for her to have Shelby the seasoned pro flying with her! They said there was a fair amount of turbulance over Montana but they had a fairly good landing (always nice to have a good landing!). Shelby and Ellie and Paige have launched a giggle-a-thon that I imagine will last the next ten days!

We will be celebrating Shelby's birthday this evening as we like to do that when she is out here for spring break (her b'day is March 2). She requested steaks and broccoli for her birthday dinner (we are also making baked potatoes and an Italian salad-tomatoes, fresh basil, fresh mozzarella and proscuitto) and we have an ice-cream cake in Shelbys favorite flavor (Oreo cookies and cream) from Cold Stone Creamery- the worlds BEST place for ice-cream! We have a few gifts from 'us' for Shelby and Gramma and Grampa Greene and Great Gramma Ruth have also sent Shelby a little something for her birthday! We will take and post pictures a little later tonight!

Tomorrow we are going to a boat party and might be going to check out some new little duckies! Sunday is church and then pizza and movie night as we need to save our energy for our vacation to Leavenworth (the town NOT the prison! hahaha) for spring break. We will be taking the laptop on vacation so will be able to post pictures on a daily basis...

Hugs to you all

Mark, Jaye and Gang
