Elijah's First Birthday!

Believe it or not, we celebrated Eli's first birthday over the weekend. Our baby is now one year old!

He had a great first birthday party! A lot of our family and friends were there to celebrate with us. The highlight was definitely watching him eat the cake. He couldn't get enough of it! Here's some pictures of the day:

Nine Month Check-up

Matt took Elizabeth and Abby to a daddy-daughter dance a few weeks ago. Here are a couple of pictures from the night:


As you can see, Abby was super excited to go on a date with Daddy:The only problem was she was too busy dancing on her own to dance with him:

Winter Fun

We took the kids sledding yesterday. We went really early so we were able to have the whole hill to ourselves. It was a blast!!

Elijah was dedicated to the Lord yesterday during our church service. Here are a couple pictures from the ceremony:

We had such a great Christmas! The kids were so excited and they really got into the presents this year. We thought we'd share some of our pictures from the holiday break.
