Zombie Ms Ella

Ms Ella went all out to attend the 1st ever Zombie Walk here in Moscow ID. She even brought along a snack!









The walk collected 320 lbs of food for the food bank and had around 200 people attending.

Sunday was a nice day to don a bathing suit, hang out with friends and hit the pool.

Christmas party

After sitting about the house for entirely too long, Ms Ella came to the library's Christmas party with me.

She checked out the tree and the presents that were bought for a local family by library staff:



While waiting for the party to start, she settled into the recliner to sit and admire the tree:



The party soon started and everyone got some food:





Once the yummy savories were done, it was time for dessert (LOTS of chocolate!):



YUM!!!!!!!!! All done:



Ms Ella had a nice time and made lots of people smile and amazed a couple kids when they noticed an elephant dressed as a reindeer sitting at the table.

A lovely walk to the park

Saturday April 26 2008 was a very nice day for the Moscow CommUNITY Walk and Ms Ella was participating again this year.

I fixed up a small wagon so she could ride in style and she loved it:



She joined the crowd of people who gathered to listen to the speeches before the walk to the park:



Once at the park she found a nice place to sit that wasn't too hot or too cold to listen to the music:





The marimba band was playing again this year, Ms Ella enjoyed it. She loves marimba music, you HAVE to move your feet when it is playing.

People we happy to see her. Several people stopped to chat and at least one person snapped her picture:



Ms Ella had a wonderful time at the Walk and got a nice necklace that makes a very nice bracelet as a souvenir to remember the day by:

A break in the weather

The sunshine and warmth came out this past weekend, so Ms Ella decided a bit of a wander about the neighborhood would be a nice idea.

Tho, she was thinking farther afield would be nice:



She decided to check out the tractor the property owner has next to the barn:





She decided to see if anything was blooming yet, found a daffodil that was getting ready. A friend wandered by and decided Ella needed some more color, so loaned her a nice colorful feather boa:



Scrapper cat thought it was neat:



It was a nice day to sit and look out over the field with the new wheat coming up:



Rum Tum thought it was a good idea too and joined her:



All in all, a very nice day and Ms Ella is looking forward to more.

It's been a long cold winter

Too cold this year for elephants, so Ms Ella has been spending her days inside as much as possible and visiting the world via the web.

But fear not, Ms Ella is itching to get back out and about and is planning on attending this year's Moscow CommUNITY Walk April 28.
