let's go outside

at times it is still a bit cold here in michigan. we have been doing our best to take a lot of trips to the park, go for bike rides, and do some swimming at our health club. this is a picture of our first time out on a bike ride last month.

what a cute kids (ok i know that i am biased)

elli's birthday

ok, so it is a really late post, but here are some pics from elli's birthday which was march 16th. she asked for several weeks after her birthday if we could keep having her birthday. she must like all of the cake, presents, and singing the happy birthday song.

ketchup

ok, i know if have not updated in a while, so here is a post for Traci McKee. she is a friend of ours from Cornerstone. she put ketchup on just about everything. i know i gave her grief about it many times. elli was eating bread with butter on it the other day. she demanded that she have some "dippers" which is ketchup with her bread and butter. it reminded me of traci. check out the pics.
