One Year Ago Today...

One year ago today (October 22nd, 2008) Rick, Ivy, and I left for China to pick up baby Luke. We can't imagine our lives without him.

Here is a cute video we took earlier this month of him dancing. He is getting so good on his foot! He had already been dancing for about 10 minutes before we starting making this, so he was getting tired by this point :).


In The Month of September...

Garage Time

When the weather is too cold to play outside, we move the car out of the garage and play with the bikes and sidewalk chalk in there.




CARNIVAL AT LANDON'S SCHOOL

Landon's elementary school had a fall carnival that we got to go to.
This is Landon throwing a basketball at the dunking booth.

FUN AT THE PETTING ZOO


Luke was a very interested in how the cows were milked. He couldn't look away the whole time.



Ivy found all the toy horses and lined them up in a row. She does this at toy stores and at homes, whenever she has a lot of horses, she loves to line them all up and just look at them.


This is Ivy's friend, Alli. Alli's two
brothers and mom came with us to


Ivy and Luke got to see some of the animals being fed on this day. Here is a picture of the baby cow being fed a bottle of milk.





GOOD-BYE TO MORE COUSINS...

Just when we were getting used to Uillame, Katie, and Rhyen moving out of state, James, Joni, Kaitlyn, Ella, and Andrew moved to Las Vegas the beginning of September. Ivy and Luke miss them so much! Rick keeps telling us we need to go down to Vegas and visit them, so hopefully we will see you guys again soon!

















Lizzie is here!!!!!!


Little Lizzie (Elizabeth Sharon) was born in September 4th. She is such a beautiful baby! Luke and Ivy love seeing her when Kyndra and Mike come over during one of their walks in the evening.


















This was the day Lizzie came home from the hospital with Kyndra. Ivy wore a mask so her "big girl" germs wouldn't get on her baby cousin.
