Eli & his balloon...



E-Ca bought Eli a balloon since he couldn't stop pointing at it at Broulim's. He loves balloons and Erin gets upset that he always pop hers.

Eli's new trick!




I think it was last week when Lindsay and Emily were over to visit teach me, Emily was sharing a thought from the message with us and we noticed this yellow ball just kept flying over towards us. We weren't paying attention at first, and thought that Eli was just throwing the yellow ball at us. Then...I noticed Lindsay started laughing. Eli was biting down on the yellow ball so hard that it just shoots out of his mouth! He's just so funny! Hope you enjoy the clip.

Happy belated gift!




E-Ca is visiting from California and bought Erin two fish for her belated birthday gift. She named them Angela and Sam. She is trying to get use to feeding them breakfast and dinner.

Pumpkins!



I tried to get a descent shot with Eli and pumpkins. The only wan I could get him to stay with the pumpkins was to give him chalk to draw on it!




Erin draws diligently with the chalk as you could tell by all the chalk dust on her cheeks. I just love autumn! I like watching the leaves on the trees change colors from green to orange, red and brown! I love watching Rexburg's beautiful seasonal changes!

Doodling on the sidewalk!



It was a very cold day...too cold to play outside, but we all needed some fresh air and get out of our little apartment. The children loves to do sidewalk chalk art. Eli sometimes like to eat the chalk!



Eli brings every piece of chalk to Erin.

Snow flakes!!!



The first day it snowed, Eli had this confused look on his face. He just stared at the snow falling for a while and didn't want to come back inside. For the first time, he's wearing the snow boots Ate Emily bought for him last year for Christmas.


I also learned how to take pictures while images are in motion. If Erin looks funny in this photo it's because I made her jump up and down to see if I could get a clear image of her doing it!

Black & White!



I was playing around with your camera and figured how to take pictures in black and white!




Erin thought it would be cool and freaky to make a scary face in a black & white photo!

Sharing...Free Crazy Bread!




Erin & Eli loves fruits!!! If only they eat veggies the same way!


This was the day we made it up to Erin on her birthday. Since Rico had so much homework to day on her birthday, we decided to take her out that Friday. So, we ended up going bowling at Teton Lanes. I'd plan to take my camera, but I always tend to forget on special occasions!!! Afterwards, we went to pick up some crazy breads from Little Caesars. Erin received certificates for local eateries for earning so many points for accelerated reading at school. She is doing so well!




Erin and Eli sharing crazy bread! It was really yummy!

Erin turns SEVEN!




My little girl is getting big! Today, Erin turned seven years old!!! This was the first year we celebrated her birthday without our family. We had cake with friends in our backyard. Erin is so lucky to have such sweet and thoughtful friends here. We love them very much. Thank you for making her birthday memorable. This is the only picture we have on her birthday. Our camera has not been functioning properly lately. Despite that, we quickly ate our cakes; Erin opened her presents and had fun playing outside with her primary friends. She loves her presents and had the biggest smile on her face when she opened them.



Erin's favorite place to eat is New Fong's. Hugs & kisses for Eli!



Erin was the oldest one at Nathan's birthday party. She had plenty of candies from the the pinata!



Like sister, like brother!

Fun things!




Erin and Eli is getting messy with shaving cream art. Erin loves messy art activities! Eli on the other hand did not like the texture of shaving cream. It felt sticky to him and kept on wiping his hands on his t-shirt. He then started to paint his head with it!



It was one cold day after coming back in from playing outside, we came inside and whipped up a hot bowl of top ramen noodles. Eli loved it! He started playing around as I fed him and wouldn't let go of the spoon from his mouth. We thought he looked like ET!



Stunna shades!



I was making a birthday cake for a friend and Eli takes off with the whip cream lid and headed out the front door! Sneaky, sneaky!




Eli loves going up the rock climb on his own!
