LITTLE SWIMMER!

DRY ICE FUN!

While visiting Arizona, Grandma made some home made root-beer. Ellie had tons of fun playing with the dry ice smoke. Our little witch went right to work making potions.

ST. PATRICKS DAY!

BEARDED MAN

Joel decided to grow his beard out for part of the winter. Then he had fun with it when it came to shaving it. Ill just let the pictures do the talking...

VALENTINES DAY!

We got Ellie this cute little puppy that walks and barks for Valentines Day. For those of you who know her know how obsessed she is with dogs, or any animal for that matter. It was funny to see her with this dog though because she was so scared of it. She wasn't sure what to make of it. She would do this nervous laugh thing, it was priceless. After a little bit of getting use to it, she grew to love it and couldn't get enough. Now we're wishing we never got it for her... she wants it on ALL the time.
Joel wrapped this beautiful present for me, I was so impressed. He got me this really cute purse. It was so nice of him. I'm so lucky to have such a wonderful husband, especially one i can always count on to give me a good laugh... I love you babe!

EATIN GRUB!

So we're a little behind on keeping up with our blog. Joel and I have been busy renovating his parents house, so its been taking up all our free time. Here is what you've missed the last few months and sorry for the delay. By the way, here's our little El eating some yummy food a making a mess of it. What a cutie!

COUCH POTATO!

We were given this little recliner for Ellie and she just loves it. Joel and I laugh all the time because we'll look over at her and shes just lounging there watching her "Baby Einstein" video and sipping her milk. She'll even invite one of her friends to sit with her every once in a while. I guess you could say life couldn't get any better.

TUBING!

Our family was fortunate to have "Uncle Ryley" and "Aunt Tarryn" come visit us in freezing Idaho. Surprisingly when they came we didn't have too much snow, but we thought it would be fun to go tubing anyways, plus we've been wanting to take The Elle for a while now. Ellie was such a big help with getting the tubes ready. She was too cute playing in the snow all bundled up. We drove up to our foothills in search of some snow, it was scarce (rare for us). The best place we found was a blocked off road that we had to hike up. Coming down we had to be careful not to hit any weeds or twigs that popped up, not to mention the big metal fence that was at the bottom. It was funny, we had to bail at the end to avoid the fence. All in all we had a blast though. You'll have to visit my sis's page for more fun photos of us tubing. (mccormicksquad.blogspot) Well Tar and Ry, we miss ya, thanks again for the visit. You'll have to come next year when we have better snow. Ha!

PLAY TIME

FOUR EYES!

Joel uses these white glasses for seeing even though they are sunglasses. He had lenses made for them, we pop the lenses for Ellie's eyes. Most people may think they are a little extreme, but for those of you who know Joel I would assume you would agree they fit his style. Ellie couldn't get enough of them. She loved the construction glasses just as much, which are way cooler. I've noticed a little "Like Father like Daughter", which is painful to admit.
