Camping Joy!

Recently we took an adventure up to Madera Canyon! Woohoo! So fun!  I have the best little family in the whole world!  :) It was Zion and Ellie's first camping trip, so we chose to stay close to home.  And it was so perfect!  It got too hot during the middle parts of the day. .. so we made the quick 30 minute drive back to Monny and Poppy's pool and went swimming! Best camping ever! :) We had so much fun! We serve such an awesome God who made such a GORGEOUS world for us to abide in!  And what a treat to have this beauty right in our own backyard!

Zion Quote of the trip:

My brother Josh blew out the camping lantern so we could all observe the AMAZING stars.... 
Josh: "I just stared at the light, I can't see Jack!" 
(10 minutes later)
Zion: "Did you find Jack yet Uncle Josh?"

It was so funny! Zion is so literal! :D
Ellie did so great!  She LOVES being outside!!  She is SUCH a good baby!  I am so blessed by her!  Constantly talking, constantly moving, Smiles so freely,  and almost giggling!  Laying on the air mattress and being sort of popped up a little was quite a happy experience for her!  :) SO FUN! !  She is almost 3 months old! Time flys when you're having fun! ! 

11 Weeks

Precious baby girl is growing so much! She's even trying to crawl! Eeek!

Happy Birthday to my Love!

We're 27! :) You FINALLY caught up to me!  :) I had to be 27 for a whole 12 days without you! :) We love you so much!  You're such an amazing husband, daddy and best friend! Love you so much!    Ellie was rather slept on her Daddy's day!  We went swimming and he arms and legs did not stop moving for the whole hour she was in!  She loves it! Yay! !

The Letter I

Working on the letter "I" today in school with Mr Z. Had lots of fun playing with colored ice,  learning about temperature and  how that effects liquids and solids, Igloos, and lots of singing the "I" sing on the computer!  A fun school day so far!  He sucks up so much information I like to have our days pretty planed out so we can go right from one thing to the next!  He's brilliant and is way beyond most preschool activities,  so he keeps me busy just trying to find fun and challenging things for him to stay engaged with.
    Miss Ellie turned 10 weeks old this weekend!  She is SO fun!  Constant motion!  Lots of smiles,  responds with cooing when talking to her,  loves her brother,  rolls easily from back to front,  and is becoming rather attached to momma.  :) LOVE my red headed little girl! 

We have the 2 most amazing children EVER!  SO blessed and privileged to get to spend my days with them! ! 

Enjoy the many faces of Ellie below, she is a riot and makes us laugh so much!  And he is Zion with his colored ice!
