Naughty or Nice?

These are our 3 E's at Christmas. I just love this picture of them.

Conceited Foodie in Da House

"If it's good enough for Elliot, it's good enough for me!"

"Watch Daddy, Elliot. Down the hatch!"

"Ugh! You like this? Man, your pallette is really unrefined."


Parents Day at Gymnastics

Ethan loves gymnastics. And he's really good at it. Here's my little man doing his Tada.
Here he is walking across the big beam all by himself.

He's the Reason for the Season!

Today Ethan and Chris went sledding and had outdoor snow fun for hours and hours. They came in with this funny story.

Ethan says, "Dad, this snowball looks like Jesus. No, actually it looks like Mary. Dad, I'm going to throw this Mary snowball at you."

Merry Christmas everyone! -RL

Give Thanks for Horses!

Thanksgiving was spent at my Aunt Krista's wonderful house. It is especially wonderful for our children because they have over 75 horses! My cousins Ashley and Melissa are so incredibly nice and patient while the kids ride. It's so fun to see Emma and Ethan's faces when they pet, brush and ride the horses.

Ethan and Ashley on Levi.
Emma on Levi. She learned to make him go forward, backward and stop. She was a quick learner, but sorry Em, no horses will be under the Christmas tree!

Elliot's Baptism

Elliot was baptized on November 18th at Trinity Lutheran. It was a fun day with lots of guests and a buffet of soup! Thanks to all who made the trip and shared in his special day!

Our friend, Ryan.
Friends Dave and Tara with their lil Baby Grace.

Uncle Derek, Aunt Melissa and cousin Julia.
Elliot, notice how Julia looks at the camera. Take some pointers.

Godparents: Auntie Sara, Uncle Brian & Aunt Kendra.

Pastor John has married Chris and I and baptized both boys. He is wonderful.

All 4th graders at church can be Guardian Angels at baptisms--how nice that Emma was able to be her own brother's Guardian Angel!
