Elijah's 1st Carolina Hockey Game

Elijah and Mommy and Daddy watching the hockey game. He was not to sure of it at first but did really well and watched all the action. I almost think there was to much there for him to watch. Carolina won in overtime 4 to 3. There was even a fight that day.

Bug Fest 2007

Saturday was really busy for our family. We got up and went down town Raleigh to see all the bugs at the Sciences Museum. I think we almost go for Chad and not the boys. Elijah really likes all the bugs and even held some of them. He did not like the bees and did not like holding the baby bee. Did you know that until a baby bee is 3 days old it can not sting or fly away. I am not sure what kind of bug that is the Elijah is holding but he said that it tickled. Elijah is working on his butterfly. They had a lot of different crafts you could do but the only one Elijah wanted to do was make a butterfly with the paint dopers.

Here is some of the food Chad ate with bugs in it. That is a large grasshopper and yes Chad did eat it. He said it tasted like an under cooked green bean and dirt. The jello had ants in it and Jarrett really liked it. Elijah did not want anything to do with the food this year. He did eat a little of the cookie but then Jarrett finished it.

Elijah helping daddy with wood pickets

When Chad got home from work on Monday Elijah and him when to home dept to get the wood pickets for the fences in the back yard. Elijah helped load the wood into the van and then when they got home he helped daddy a lot by unloading the wood pickets into the garage. Elijah was very prode of himself and every time he goes by the pile in the garage he lets who ever is with him know that that is his wood pile and he helped his daddy with it.

Elijah golfing in back yard

Elijah's 1st day at school

On Tuesday the 4th of Sept. Elijah went to school for the first day his teachers are Mrs. Lynne and Mrs. Kelly. He goes on Tues. & Thurs. from 9:30am until 1:15pm and has lunch there also. He has done really well and excited to go so far each morning. He packed his lunch on the first two days so it was a hot dog, gold fish, nutty bar, and juice box. That's all right he eats it and enjoys those foods. So here are the photo's of him his 1st day.

Summers Over

We have had a very full summer this year with both boys. We went to the beach and we brought our sitter Leanna with us and that was great then to Mich. Mom flew here to Raleigh and then her and I and boys drove to Mich and did the same on the way back. We have had little vacation's here and there also. So here are some photo's just to see what we have done. Elijah went to his 1st baseball game. Daddy is putting a fence in our backyard also. His deer stand is almost done and not a moment to soon hunting starts Oct 15th.
