Wordle

I found a really neat website that I had a lot of fun playing around on yesterday. Here is the site and here are a few designs other people made.

These would make really good wall art or even t-shirts!
So here is one I just made for my Pontier family. I printed it and took a picture. I couldn't fingure out how to save it as a document without making it public. What do you think? T-shirts for our next family reunion?

rain...finally

I'm not a huge fan of rain, but since it hasn't rained since late August it is a nice change.

Have I mentioned that I LOVE Fall! This weekend was filled with garage sale shopping, making applesauce, and picking some last things from the garden.

Look Who's Two!!

Happy 2nd Birthday Rebecca!!

We had a party for her over the weekend.
A new outfit and a talking tea pot.

Tickle Me Elmo was definitly a favorite!

Fun with Cousins

Rebecca has a lot of fun with her cousins.

Recently we went to Dan's cousin, Emily's wedding. Rebecca was not at all shy about cutting in on the bride and groom.

She also had a good time dancing with Allison, Jessica, and some other girls their age. What's childhood without a few bathtime photos? Here's Rebecca with Allison and Jessica.

I just had to include this picture because I think it is so cute! I've been into making fruit smoothies lately. Our blender has this single serving container that you can use - it's so handy. Rebecca really enjoys my smoothies too.

Strange Child

Every kid has their own personality and it's fun to see that come out after a few weeks of birth. As an infant, you can somewhat control your child and they don't do so much that surprises you - good babies are predictable.

One of the joys of parenthood is watching your child become unpredictable. Rebecca makes us laugh so much by the things she does!

Shoes for drinking.

Sunglasses at breakfast.

Cooking with Grandma

This is a flashback to our time in Canada. My mom is an amazing cook and she gave Rebecca a few lessons. Rebecca, Aunt Rachel, and Grandma made manacotti with homemade suace and pasta.

Camping

A few weekends ago we went camping with Eric and Val, Scott, and Rachel. We had a good time, but that cold air we had in Canada at my parents' followed us home. The water was pretty warm, but we were bundled up on the boat!
I learned how to wake board! I never stayed up for very long, but it's a start.
