Halloween Time

We went to a Halloween Party last weekend and took Ella with us in her bumble bee costume! Believe it or not these are our pumpkins we grew in our garden this year... even though we had to pick them before they got orange, Ella still had fun with them.

September's Trips

MTC Moment

It was a sad time for my family this past week... my only brother entered the MTC headed for Singapore. For those of you who know what this feels like, you can relate. But if you haven't, it is a very emotional time when you're all in the room at the MTC and missionaries have to exit one way and families the other... knowing you won't see him for two years. It's wierd that my little brother is even old enough to go on a mission. We drove back to CA for his farewell a couple weeks ago, and from his talk I know he has a testimony and will be an awesome missionary. Who knew my brother could ball like me?

A Third Eye

Ella has had her fair share of bumps and bruises while learning to walk... she's got the walking down now, but still bumping and falling down all the time. It's amazing how resillant kids are, even the 2nd day you can tell her third eye was going down. She looks real hurt, huh! :)

Emily's Wedding in L.A.

In the middle of August I went to California to see my brother go through the temple and we took a trip down to L.A. for my cousin's wedding. It was a nice trip... but so dang hot! Thank heavens for the guy who invented air conditioning! Click on any picture to enlarge.
