Eli's Escapdes

Here he is crawling through the maze of chair legs...I really think he enters in and tries to see where he can come out at!

Eli & Papa playing
10 months old...my goodness, I can't believe he's only 8 weeks from being a year old! He can stand by himself...when he wants to...it's quicker for him to crawl...he will give you a beautiful giggle when you play peek-a-boo...and his smile melts your heart!

While the other kids were swimming Eli was swinging...we looked over and he was just about asleep...it'd been a long day!

And, he's out like a light!

Playtime with Trinity

Small, but mighty...the swimming tank at Mimi & Papa's may be small, but it is full of fun for the kids...they'd stay in all day if we let them!

Trinity & Brennan were playing outside- Trinity would pick flowers, hand them to Brennan, and then he's pile them up...they had their own system of what they were doing with them!
No, they're not fighting, they're dancing!

This is one of my favorite pics from the weekend at Mimi & Papa's...Trinity & Mimi saying, "CHEESE!"

Here & There

I've started giving Trinity & Eli baths togther- makes it much easier & quicker, plus, they like to play and splash around together...it's so funny to watch them! Eli thinks he's bigger than he really is and likes to put his face in the water- he loves being in the water!

Danica & Trinity trying to warm up in the sunshine after swimming at Grandma & Grandpa's.

Playtime & the 4th of July!

Mr. Hollywood...Trinity was playing with Eli and put her sunglasses on him- they would both just giggle and giggle!

Lions, tigers, bears, Trinity, & Eli...oh, my!
Happy 4th of July!!!

Harvest & Playhouse

Aaron helps his Uncle Don and cousin Mark during harvest. Trinity loves going out to ride the combine with him...she's such a big girl!

Eli's first harvest...there was so much for him to look at while he rode.
An update on the playhouse...it's been shingled and sided. We're hoping to paint it in the next few weeks and still have the porch to add.

Family Time

Some pics of the kids...Eli & Grandpa

Trinity & Beau

Danica & Trinity (Trinity was refusing to smile because she was eyeing Jeff, danica's boyfriend, who had just walked in; Trinity clammed up as soon as he entered the house!)
Danica & Eli...I know, Dani, Jeff's look don't even compare to Eli's!

Happy (early) Birthday, Aaron!

Happy Birthday, Aaron! We celebrated Aaron's 29th birthday a week early because harvest was on hold because of rain (yes, Weskan area does get rain and lately we've gotten several inches! Praise God!)...this weekend everyone will be back in the field! So many candles on the cake Aaron could keep warm in the winter! Love you!

Trinity is amazed at the light produced from all of those candles...yes, Daddy's really that old!
