The artist formerly known as Ella

I need to still add Tyler to the family mommy!

And this is Aunt Rachel

So completely proud of her work

Frack had to get in on the action

Our family through the eyes of our 4 year old



I am in the kitchen, when in bounds Ella Grace all excited and exclaims for me to come and see how beautiful she made her room. She was very happy and excited, thinking she had really done a good thing.


Ella is on an 'artist' kick and we have her drawings all over the house, and I am  starting a porfolio of some of her best work. They really are quite good if I say so myself. :)


Tyler pulled this stunt with his buddy Jacob at about the same age that Ella is now, so I am 'seasoned' in this sort of thing. My intial reaction was kind of a gasp and then a chuckle with a tad bit of being impressed at how cute it looked, but not wanting to give Ella or Maya the impression that it was ever ok to write or draw on anything other than paper. 


I tryed to affirm her and correct her without bursting her bubble too much, because she really was proud of herself and was saddened to know that it really wasn't ok to do. 
If you look closely you can see a bright yellow mark on the wall, that is the glue residue from where the wallpaper border used to be, before they ripped it off. Oh well, I try to make a cute house, I give up until they are older. LOL


Thank goodness for Mr. Clean majic erasers, that would take it off in no time. But hey, I planned on painting that room anyway in the near future, so I may just leave it up!

It has been awhile since I have last written. Christmas day to be exact. It has been on my mind to write, but we really had not taken any pictures nor has anything really noteworthy transpired since then, so we were on hiatus. :P

This week however it has finally warmed up to near 70! YAY! So today we got out our bikes and then headed over to the park for some fun in the sun (and dirt) It was a fun day, and we met lots of new friends. :)
