So Much to Say

Believe it or not, I've been trying to blog for weeks.  Sadly, it's been that long since I've actually been on a computer and my phone won't let me blog for some reason. 

The family has been enjoying nice weekends at the lake, including a long 5-day weekend after Grandpa Johnson's memorial service.  Eli's been out on the boat twice now and does pretty great out there. 

Beautiful sunset over Mark Twain Lake

We also bought a new "Umi Zoomi" van (as Ella calls it), or a swagger wagon as I describe it.

It's a 2008 Chryseler Town & Country.  I had to trade in the old "EZ CRZN," with my awesome "I used to be cool" bumper sticker.  I LOVE it though.  I think that it looks more like an SUV than a minivan.  Even better, it has all kinds of fun gadgets like automatic doors and remote start.  Best of all, it has a back-up camera so I can be absolutely sure that I'm not going to run over a bicycle or small child in the blind spot.  As I said, I LOVE it!

Here are some updated pictures of the little man.  He's getting so big!

Okay, I guess that's all for now.  It's what we've been up to lately.  Hopefully I'll be able to get back to my computer faster; that way I can avoid my 150 unread emails and I can update the blog more often.  I guess you never know now that there's two kiddos in the house though.  Until next time....
