Isn't she perfect? :)

Up to Hood River

We were up in Hood River for a friend's birthday party, and enjoyed a bit of time in a few rivers along the way. Note: Lena's new hair cut!

Trip to the falls

With Tio Nick and Melissa.

Face paint!

Little Tinker critters...

Is it because he's a boy?

"I can pour my own syrup!" Hmm... Can you even see the pancakes? And yes, he's wearing his sister's shirt.



Must have knee pads and elbow pads on. And spider man boots. And Lena's pink leopard print hat. Along with our...underpants. For playing in the front yard, of course.

Helping dad knock out a closet...

Or is Lena just posing?? Hard to say.

the little athlete

Eli had an overnight with his nonni and bompa, and got quite the workout.

A little basketball, a little baseball and of course a little hot tub to wind down ;)


nice form!

Oklahoma 2009

Headline: It was HOT!

Lena fully dressed in her Osage regalia for the first time this year (thank you auntie Randy!). Here she is with her cousin. She did a great job dancing, by the end of the four days she had it down.









Can you see Stella and Eli on opposite sides of the play structure both climbing up? I just liked the symmetry.




We had an early birthday party for E and S, and Eli got a fiddle from his great auntie and uncle that he loves! Doesn't he look like a pro?
