tinkers at the park

on a recent sunny evening, the tinker clan ventured out for a little swingin'. lena decided to swing in the kids swing so she could get lots of underdogs from her dad.



elijah and stella love swinging like this...and it keeps them from wobbling around in the swing! they look like little bowling ball heads from the back in these hats, don't you think? pretty cute.

1, 2, 3 cuties

eli in his stylish Chinese overalls.


sleepy stella with rosy cheeks.



lena posing in front of her school. it's amazing to me how in the first picture she looks like a little girl and in the second photo she looks so grown up!


could those eyes be any wider?

the cutest boy.

stella

stella was looking so pretty today, we had to have a little photo shoot...

in the picture above stella looks exactly like my sister did as a baby...don't you think, kel?

surprise!

Easter morning

Happy Easter!

These pictures are from Saturday. We had an early egg hunt at my dad's. I'll post more pictures soon of egg hunt #2.

Here is lena being "hot lava girl" falling into the lava (a pile of pillows). She doesn't get hurt though because, well, she's hot lava girl.


Modeling her "fancy gown"...
