We went to the birthday party for a little kid in our ward the other week. It was a costume party. Lindsay andI went as nerds and Erik as a basketball player. Erik definitely takes the cake as the coolest in the family.

Family Portraits

Around the New Year, we took some family pictures in Ramona. We have just now gotten around to posting them on the blog, but thought it is better late than never.



Erik has definitley grown since these pictures were taken, and he doesn't sit still so well anymore.
