First Date

Last weekend, at our Ney church, Ron had the privilege of baptising Marissa. She is a 13 month old cutie. So on Saturday evening we were invited to her Baptism party. The boys were all excited because they were having pancakes and eggs. We arrived to find it was in their barn and so that relieved some stress of taking 4 kids to a new place too. It was a fun evening, but no one enjoyed it more than Eli!

Let me first explain that Eli loves Marissa. He likes to be whereever she is and likes to be in her space. He has been drawn to her for quite some time now. So as soon as he finished his pancakes he asked to go play with her.

Below are some of their adventures together. Thanks to Marissa's mom, Anne, I can actually post these pictures.

I told you she was a cutie!

So, Eli, being the gentleman that he is, decided he would take Marissa for a ride on the tractor.

They were so cute. She just sat their and grinned (and held on) and he peddled her all around the garage, stopping for pictures along the way! So I think he had a successful first date. Their daddies even talked about arranged marriages!

I think we'll stick to tractor drives in the garage for awhile!
