Marissa's Wedding Weekend

Marissa and Levi had such a beautiful wedding. We are so happy Levi has joined our family!

Ella and her Auntie Rissa. She was so excited to see her! Ella loved playing "Gotcha" with her cousin Emily!My friend Masha brought her cute little girl Petra for a visit. It was great to finally meet her. Ella and her had quite a good time together.

Patrick and Emily seemed to enjoy themselves!

Ella especially loved the ducks!

Malakai is here!

Our nephew Malakai was born August 30. He was about a month early but apparently decided he wanted to make his appearance. He was in the NICU for about three days and they got to come home. He is such a cutie. Here are a couple of pictures of the handsome little guy.

Fun with Nana, Tanner & Kearis

These pictures are a bit old but we had a computer tragedy. =( I figure better late than never! We sure had fun with Nana, Tanner and Kearis before they left this summer.

Sea World & The Ella Encounter

So, we have recently discovered that long car rides are easier with a portable DVD player. Ella quite likes it too. It's a win win situation.

I know she is making a weird face, but look at the cute teeth!!

Brady and Tanner inspecting the smoker so that they know how to make one some day. =)

Ella and her Aunt Shannon. Ella sure likes her.....watch out Marissa!

Long Beach Aquarium

I know it has been forever since I have updated the blog. We have been all over the place and too busy to sit and upload photos. Here are a few pictures of our trip to the aquarium. Ella enjoyed herself quite a bit.

Ella is touching her first shark!
