After a very brief 3 month courtship, Nicole and Josh were married Sept 15, 2006. A little over two years later, God blessed them with Eliza Mae. This is their story.
I am terrible at writing blog posts on a regular basis. But I do take a lot of videos of Eliza. Here is another one that I can share with you that I took while we were waiting for a prescription at the grocery store. It was her first time ever being up front in one of those fun carts.
With all the snow, we post-poned Eliza’s birthday party until Sunday December 5th. We had a great time. Everyone from both families were able to come (except Cherisa - at BYUI, and Josh Taylor - at work) and we had a jolly time.
Dinner was served, and being fast Sunday, was enjoyed by all. Pulled Beef sandwiches, baked potatos with the fixin’s and a salad.

Eliza Happy to have Cake!
Eliza's favourite new toy - playing with the cousins.
And last but not least… the video of her opening her presents!
It snowed Friday. A lot! Upwards of 20cm in some areas. That evening, I drove around quite a bit. I was surprised how few cars were on the road, and had no trouble navigating around with the terrible road conditions. That is, however, until I was almost home. Yup, got stuck on the driveway. 18 inch drift and low speed didn’t work out in my favor.
Couldn't make it any further than I did without help.
But at least I was almost home!
Eliza, cute as ever is taking care of the animals on Noah’s Arc. As such she is wearing the cowboy hat for good measure.

So. Eliza likes computers. Whenever we are using one she wants to use it too. I suppose that is normal with ANY device a parent uses, but it is still cute.
Last week, I let her play with Nicole’s netbook and she took pictures of herself using the webcam. When she was done she actually closed the computer lid!
So on Saturday we let Eliza play with the computer right before going to sleep for the night. Here is the picture!
Eliza LOVES the webcam! (click to enlarge image)
