Garber Girls

I took this picture of Sophia today and then found a very similar one of Ellen. (They are right at the same age, but Sophia is taller.)

Work Day

I had mentioned earlier that my dad had made a table for the girls and I promised a better picture. Well, Tim and Ellen worked on the chairs last weekend (yard sale find) and got them cleaned up and ready to paint.

Ellen loves spending time with her daddy and it warms my heart to see them together. I hope they have as close of a relationship as I have with my dad!

Here's the finished product....I shouldn't say finished because I want to stencil their initials on the seats of the chairs. So, they are usable, but not quite finished.

Thanks Dad for your hard work on the table. Thanks Tim and Ellen for your work on the chairs, and thanks Tim for painting them white even if that wasn't your first choice. : )

Not satisfied

I guess feeding her baby dolls just isn't cutting it anymore! She asked me the other night if she could give Sophia her bottle before they went to bed. Ellen acted like she had done it one hundred times before. I just sat back and cracked up! Sophia looks pretty relaxed too... with her legs crossed...just enjoying!

Ellen & Sydney

Ellen and Sydney were playing dress up and I couldn't resist taking their picture. They are becoming such good friends and it warms my heart to see them together. I hope they grow up
to be as good of friends as Erin and I are.

Beautiful Day

We had some awesome weather last weekend so we took Ellen to ride her tricycle. She loves leading the way with us following behind her. She does a great job going down the "hills", turning the corners and stopping by herself. Sophia enjoyed the view too!

TEA TIME

Dad felt kind of under-dressed for this party with Ellen.

Dad made this table for the girls to play with. It's not a great picture of the table, I'll have to get

a better one later.

I found it!

Tim recently organized all of our pictures and I was having a hard time finding stuff. It's so nice that the pictures are all in their place, but it took me a while to remember what I had and hadn't posted. It suddenly hit me that I hadn't posted any of the girls from Halloween. So, here are some of my favorites!




Tim usually signs up to work the "Fall Dance" at the Middle School. He always comes up with some type of "punny" costume. If you can't see the picture he has a quarter on his shirt and he's holding a hammer. Any guesses????





Tim and Ellen dancing....I think he danced more here than he did at our wedding!





Sophia the strawberry! She was so sweet!

We took the girls up to the square to walk around and we went to FBC for Trunk or Treat.


Ellen got her face painted at the church.




Here are a few pictures of us carving the pumpkin this year. Ellen wasn't too hip on putting her hands down in the pumpkin pulp.




Oh yeah, Tim was a QUARTER POUNDER!

Playing together

Ellen and Sophia are actually playing together! Now that Sophia is sitting up they have started interacting on a whole new level. Sophia LOVES it when Ellen gets down and plays with her. They are going to be great friends!

She's official

Ellen is now official! She got her first LEE-NA-TARD (leotard) for gymnastics! She is doing really well. This is a picture of her salute!
