Eli turns 7

Eli wanted to mini-putt for his birthday, but we waited too long to reserve a room, so we had it at our humble abode. We killed a pinata, did a three legged race and played the water balloon game, which ended up ending quite quickly. Overall, Eli was so pleased with his party and extremely excited to be 7!

January and February

We have been practicing for a month now to get Everett sitting by his 6 month appointment. He finally succeeded and just in time. I think it took a little longer than the others because he is either constantly being held or his big head would pull him over :) Emmy is, of course, complete cuteness in her dance outfit with cowboy boots! And Eli finally lost a top tooth, and currently loosing the other as we speak. Everett's stats were 21.3 lbs, 28 inches long and 45cm head!! What a man!!!

Pro Bowl

Drew Brees and Eli's first professional football game made for one HAPPY little Boy!!! No autographs, but Eli and Randy still had an awesome time! Next year, we are stalking the players out at Ko'lina!!!

Ms. Ella turns 10

Even though Ella turned 10 on January 19th, we decided that we would plan a really "adult" like party for her and her girlfriends. We went to the Wai'oli tea room, which serves "High Tea". The girls were given their own tea pots and allowed to choose their own tea leaves. I was so impressed with how the girls conducted themselves. They dressed in their very best dresses and looked gorgeous! This, of course, was smack dab in the middle of our weekend of craziness. We were displaced downtown because our house was being tented for termites and we had to try to bring that beautiful birthday cake that Ella and I made together. The Bell men were so nice, they refrigerated our cake for us! And Sunday was the Pro-Bowl, which is another post in itself. All in all, our paid weekend vacation was crazy, but it turned out perfect!
Next year, Randy informed us we CAN NOT have a party without him!!!

Oh yes, Emersyn had to accompany her big sister, because what would a party be without Emersyn?!
