I'm having so much fun up-north! We drove four hours to get to St. Germain, Wisconsin. It is so beautful here. Here's a picture of mom, dad, and I at the lodge. We are staying at the Black Bear Lodge. The theme this year for the Cleary Clan vacation is "Let the Good Times Roll". That's what we're all doing here.

Surf's Up Dude! I have a new cousin!!!! Congrats to the Marshall family. Auntie Suzie and Uncle Ads are proud parents of Zac Alexander. He was 8 lbs. and 12ozs. A.J. is also excited to be a big brother. I can't wait to meet Zac. We are going to be best of buds!! As long as he remembers that I'm older than him.

I forgot to congratulate Matt and Jen! Best of luck on your new marriage. I love the inch worm you guys got me. He tastes great!

It is hot today!!!


I want to thank Stacy for the 'Peeps" shirt. I love it!!!








I love hanging out with mom and dad all day!!! I can't wait to find out who my new cousin is. Auntie Suzie, Uncle Ads and AJ are waiting for her/his arrival.

Hey there!
Summer vacation has officially started for my family. Mom had her last day of work on Monday! We are keeping busy. Last night we went to a party. I was a very good girl. Tomorrow we are going to have a home inspection done on the house we're trying to buy. I'm going to try my best to be very good! Today mom told me that we had about 20 realators in our condo to see what it looks like. I don't know if she's telling the truth because I was napping the whole time they were here.

Tonight we were very excited because I got a call from Australia. We thought that my new cousin may have arrived, but it was just Auntie Suzie saying hello to us. I can't wait to meet her, AJ, Uncle Adam, Nanna and Poppo! I have a count down that I check everyday. It only 40 days until the big trip!

I've got to go. Time for bed.

Love,
Ellie

Happy 40th Anniversary to Nana and Poppo.
I'm hugging caterpillar and dolly just like I'm going to hug you when I visit you in July!

I'm so happy!!!!
I want to wish a very happy birthday to many important people in my life.
Happy Birthday Poppo!
Happy Birthday Auntie Suzie!
Happy Birthday Renee

Happy Birthday Grandma!
