hello. i made this cake awhile back, but i forgot to take pictures, so cora’s parents gladly took a few and posted them to facebook. i subsequently hi-jacked them and posted them here. the cake was for cora’s 2nd birthday. i had a little help from my mom’s neighbor who used to dabble in cake […]
friends
lambs
some friends from church live nearby and own a little mini farm. their sheeps just gave birth to a bunch of babies (called lambs) and we stopped by to see them. isaac loved meeting some real live animals (vs. tv and book animals).
ruby’s birthday party
on thursday, we went to our church office for a little birthday celebration for ruby. she’s two! isaac got her a robot (last post).
swimming and the kernel
yesterday, we had our first swim of the new swim season, along with some friends. isaac was a bit unsure at first, but after a few minutes, he was all in. then we went to the kernel for a fun lunch before heading home to crash. the pictures didn’t come out as well as i […]
new friend.
a couple of nights ago, we went to kernel kustard to meet up with our life group on the night off. there was another family from our church there, with their son, and he and isaac hit it off. their love of climbing and jumping and living dangerously is their bond.

wny trip
two weekends ago, we made a short and spontaneous trip to the buffalo/batavia area. here’s the proof: isaac and derek coming down the stairs, amidst the snow and ice and slippery-ness. isaac and anna (varland) making an artwork duet. attempting for a pose in front of the ginormous tree at aunt eleanor’s and […]
livy’s party
some shots of livy enjoying/destroying my creation… isaac had his eye on this duck from the start of the party. towards the end, he finally climbed on the table and helped himself. heather gave him the ok to keep it and he kept it firmly in his clutches all the way home: […]
