it's the little things...

you know that saying remember the little things for someday they may be big things. that's the reason for this post. all the little things. family, ellie's smile, hanging out and then it's gone so the little things we had are now big memories!

we like to walk. matt and i walk every night with baxter and we enjoyed taking ellie with us. we went on sunday to the park to walk with her

            grandpa had fun taking her down the slide as did her dad i just don't have a picture
                                                 looks like a kid doesn't he!

                                                       our ellie girl!
 this is a moment dear to my heart. caleb with his arm around ki. as the days approached for her to leave he got more and more affectionate. i know he misses her, all of them


she was laying on the floor on her computer and he just layed down with her :)

 and this is how guys show their love~ wrestling. there was a lot of that with scotty

                                       and fondue in the middle of the living room floor!
                                    ellie in the bath. she loves it, she twists and turns and kicks and coos!
              she loves to pet things, matt put her on the back of the chair where caleb was listening to elder Nelson and she just watched while she petted the back of his head
              going out together we all wanted to be in the same car, with ellie in her carseat that meant caleb had to sit in the hatchback trunk! he really was such a good sport about it since we always had to put him in and let him out!

                   while caleb was home we were continually going out to lunch here's grandpa with ellie at PF chang's.
it hasn't been very long since they've been gone and we miss them. i ache to see and hear ellie! so glad i have lots of videos and pictures to look at.

I think that's so awesome that your kids are so close! At least you can find non-stop tickets to California, so hopefully you guys can visit each other often. I love the pics of Ellie! She is such a gorgeous little girl!

Love all these sweet pictures. I can see how much you guys miss Kiley and her sweet family. I hope you get to see them soon! Oh--and I LOVED all the beach pictures. Someday we will get over there to visit those beautiful beaches in Hawaii!
