Christmas morning

Eli trying out the shape sorter with Brian

Thomas' Misty Mountain and the 2010 Hess Truck

Eli getting in on the Hess Truck fun - he really likes to push the toy cars and trucks around

Big brother, little brother

Eli loves doing what Brian does. Let's hope he picks up more on the good habits... :o)

Sledding in the backyard

We've had quite a bit of snow lately.

Eli enjoyed being pulled in the sled by his big brother.

Chickadees at Mendon Ponds

In the winter, the chickadees will come and take seeds from our hands. Brian was very good at holding still so the birds would come.

Eli watched quietly as the birds came and went.

Hopefully we'll be able to do it again soon!

Happy Birthday Pa-pa

We celebrated Grandpa's birthday a bit early - Brian helped blow the candles out.

Thanksgiving

Grandma and Pa-pa and Auntie Denise came to visit for Thanksgiving

As always, lots of delicious homemade food!

Autumn Leaves 2

One more time out in the leaves!

Here's Eli before he got lost in the leaves and discovered they didn't taste so good.

Brian was having a great time all the way up until it started raining this afternoon. Goodbye leaves!
