Eli is Here

Our new little gift has arrived!

With so much joy and gladness in our hearts we announce his birth:

Eli William was born on May 20, 2013 at 2:48 AM.

He was 9 pounds, 4 ounces and 21.5 inches long.

He is beautiful and dearly loved by all his family members!

 

Growing Up

Why does that happen so achingly fast?

My dear 6 year old son has successfully worked, saved his money, and waited patiently for the day he had enough to buy his own BB gun.

Now he's carefully learning how to care for it, load it, and act safely with it.

Not to mention...he's a natural crack shot.

I'm so proud of him!

Celene did her own kind of shooting...with her new camera she got for her birthday. Now that's my kind of girl.

 

Green Grass! Sunny Evenings!

I know, I know...it always does come...but the wonder of Spring never fails to excite!

All 3 on the four-wheeler...they loved it! :)

I just love her style.

Always cheerful and willing to take his little sister for rides. :)

Getting strong and confident...so proud of her.

Kids N Kites

There's nothing like kids and kites to keep a Daddy slim and trim! 

:)

The kids "borrowed" my camera and took turns with it...below are a few cute shots they got.
