Destin Florida and the Spelling Bee

We decided to drive home
Florida, so we stopped over
in the Destin area. They
had some really nicely
decorated Palm and Christmas Trees. It was a little cold however.

Back to school in January. And Ellis won the Progress South Elementary Spelling Bee. I think I was more nervous than he was. What an accomplishment! We are very proud of him. He competed later in the District spelling bee (didn't win but great experience) and also had the chance to try out for the Post Dispatch spelling bee (he didn't make it).

Congrats to Ellis! I would LOVE to have his spelling skills:)
Glad to see an update! Keep them coming! Looks like you all had a great time at Christmas! Pizza, cookies and beer (not necessarily--might need Ellis to help me spell that! in that order) but those are the makings of a GREAT Christmas;)

Way to go Ellis!!! You are quite the intelligent one! I'll challenge you to a game of trivia or jeopardy anyday!
