Less than three hours after I rescued her from the sweltering mailbox, Ella was wrapped in a sarong like any good Island Girl. However, jet lag took it’s toll and she fell asleep almost before she finished the bushel of broccoli I gave her for dinner.
I was certain we wouldn’t see Ella again before breakfast, so I only dished up two bowls of ice cream, then I called OC to the table. Ellie beat him to the chair. I had no idea elephants could run that fast or jump that high!

OC took the entire incident very well. He likes Ella’s enthusiasm and zest for life — and food.
He might like it more if Ellie’s zest for food didn’t mean HIS food.
Ohhh Ella! You’re outfit is just DARLING! I love it! And it even goes with your sunglasses… I LOVE it! But Ella… you can’t take ALL OC’s food! Mind your manners girlfriend! If OC gets hungry it may become elephant vs. BEAR!!!
I have a soft spot in my heart for Ellie, reminds me of the Alabama mascot Big Al. Hope you enjoy your new home.
seems to me ella is going to have a great time!
You’re making me jealous, looks like you’re all having a great time with Ella!
I love this!
I need to come back and back-track and read the others. Sorry I’ve been out for a bit…
I love the Ella pictures.
Ella was just at the beach and now a vacation to Hawaii – no fair!
I’m sure you’ll both have a grand time together.
HAHAHA… She looks ‘divine’ in that Hawaiian dress, and I bet it gives her lots of room for movement as she runs to the table and jumps up onto the chair. Good thing OC is easy going.
An elephant with a love of ice cream. And I love the sarong. She looks great in that sarong. Just her colour too.
Ellie – try and stick to your own ice cream or your hosts may get a little tetchy.
Just sayin”…..
