Dressed up and Camping in July

Hello all. Here are some pictures of Elke dressed up for a wedding, in her hip outfit from Tia Kat, and camping at Owhi/Cooper Lake. She's a total joy. She says all kinds of words and is starting to link them into sentence. We had to leave camping a little early because the bugs were really "bugging" her--but she had a great time swimming in the mountain lake.

A new house and a trip to Colorado!

We are officially living in Desert Aire now (Mattawa, WA). It's really hot and in the middle of nowhere. But, we love our new place as does Elke. We just got back from a great trip to Colorado. We saw lots of family! Here are the pictures from our new place and the trip (including ones of little Major Sander too!)
