This is the result of unsupervised ravioli eating. I definitely get to blame this mess on Dad.

When I was cleaning out the fridge Elliot grabbed an onion out of the drawer and gave it a little taste. Instead of taking it away I decided to grab the camera. Strangely she didn't seem to mind raw onion.

My best bud Lisa put pictures of her daughter Ensley in different situations acting like their dog. So I thought I'd share some of Elliots dog mimicking moments as well.

Uncle Aaron and Aunt Amy just got a new puppy. She is a great dane and her name is Gracie. Elliot and her cousin Jacob had fun playing with Gracie after Sunday dinner. We can't wait until Gracie is full grown so Elliot can ride her since she is going to be the size of a pony.

We decided to take advantage of the time we had left this summer before Landon starts up school again. We drove down to California for a couple days. We went to Ventura Beach. Elliot thought the water was a little too cold but the sand was delicious. We visited the LA zoo where Elliot called almost all of the animals doggies. Its hard with a limited vocabulary. One day was spent in Santa Barbara on the wharf. We went to the sea center. Elliot was able to touch star fish and sea cucumbers. Kristin's Dad was in California for work so we were able to bum free dinners every night (thanks Dad!). We had a great time but also learned the difficulties of traveling with a one year old.

We have a 1 year old!

Elliot turned 1 on June 17th (Father's Day!). She is getting so big and sassy. She had 2 birthday parties. One in Vegas with the Grande side and one in Utah with the Davidson side. She enjoyed her cake and all her presents. We just love her so much and the smiles and sunshine she has brought into our home.

North Carolina

We had so much fun on our vacation with Lisa, Evan, and Ensley. It was so green and beautiful. We stayed in a condo in Lake Lure (4hours from Evan and Lisa's house). There was so many things to do. We toured the huge Biltmore House and gardens, visited chimney rock (Last of the Mohicans was filmed there), saw a few of the many waterfalls in the area and spent lots of time in the resort pools. We rented a boat on our last day and spent the morning relaxing on the lake.

We had a great time with the Mcnabbs. Elliot really enjoyed getting to know Ensley. We can't wait to go on another trip with them!

In the tub or in the pool Elliot loves to play in the water.

The adventures of crawling...

Easter Weekend

We had a great time in Utah over Easter weekend. We went to Miki's beautiful wedding. And we really enjoyed visiting with family and friends that we have not seen for a while.

Elliot is crawling now and so we have all new adventures in front of us as we chase her down.
