Always Falling!
Ellie is always falling and tripping. I know it comes with being a child and learning to balance that head on your shoulders as your legs grow twice as fast as the rest of your body; but this child falls all the time! This particular day she was looking through a Shopko Toys mailer and Izzy was trying to take it from her. In an attempt to keep it to herself she spun around to jerk the magazine out of Izzy hand and landed face first (nose first) on the front step. These are photos of the next day. Ya, it’s pretty funny looking.
My brother, Danny was commenting on how little kids fall all the time and he remarked that he just wants to say “Stop falling!” to his children. He then said that must be how Heavenly Father feels when he continually watches His children fall. Now whenever I repeat the same mistakes and continually stumble over the same weakness I tell myself that Heavenly Father is thinking, “Just stop falling” and then he patiently picks me up and hugs me and kisses it better and let’s me try again.

Nieces and Nephews!!
Ya know, I realized a couple months ago that I really don’t have many pictures of my nieces and nephews on the Vandenberg side. So, I have made more of an effort to carry my camera to every event.
Aren’t they cute?
These little beauties are Xavier (X), Evelyn (Evvie), Isaac, Shirley, and Brennon. I have been so blessed to have married into a family that loves little ones and are so cute with them…and they make cute kids! I love these little ones!
