Oliver's Dedication

 My boys looking handsome for church!

 Oliver's favorite thing to do in church...is talk.  We might need to work on that.

Walt Meske (our neighbor) dedicated Oliver for us.  We especially wanted him to dedicate Oliver since he also presided over Nisha's funeral.  I'm so glad he has been able to be a part of our children's milestones.  Walt and his wife Bonnie are our surrogate grandparents, they take very good care of us.

 Growing up so fast...

Can't you tell he's our offspring!

Trick-or-Treat

For Halloween this year we thought we'd try trick-or-treating in Downtown Walla Walla...

Ezekiel joined us on this fun adventure and *unlike* Oliver, Ezekiel wanted to put everything on his head! 

 Presenting (the very intimidating) Sock-Monkey Pirate and Fire-Breathing Dragon!

 Trying to convince Ezekiel to take his "bag hat" off and trying to get Oliver in his hat...whew.

 Ezekiel was a big hit with the crowds.  I think he managed to whisper, one very quiet, "tick-o-tea."

Oliver spent most of the time yanking his dragon hat and dragon feet off.

Big boy adventures

Loves pulling everything out of my purse.

Oh boy.  This day is FAR, FAR away...right?!

Dokku Paati

Dokku Paati (translation: my mother's sister)

 Oliver has lots of Paati's that like to spoil him...

He has been quite busy this week looking at the books Dokku Paati bought him!
