ezra and liza's blog

We're Ezra and Liza Jane. This our blog. It's where you can see what we've been up to lately. I'm Ezra. I love Mom, Dad, Sissy, playing outside, reading stories, soccer, building things, legoes and tigers. I'm Liza Jane. This is my blog, too. I love Mom, Dad, Ya Ya (Ezra), school, stories, being silly, dancing to music, taking care of my babies and showing off my big vocabulary.

Gratitude







































We are thankful for:


A fun weekend in Portland with family.


The yummy food we enjoyed (and the leftovers).


A beautiful hike at Tryon Creek (look how hard Liza Jane hiked).


The family and friends we didn't get to see (but thought of fondly).


A quick visit with friends in Seattle (including a Seattle Science Center stop).


A quick drive home (muchly appreciated after our 10 hour trek to Portland on Wednesday).

Palm Springs













The view
from our porch...

Cousins!





















Legoland!








































It was an exciting day of rides, Lego models, more rides, more Lego models, etc.


Good Sport







Mom was a good sport to go on this ride. Riders zip round and round on these big jet ski type units while Legoland enthusiasts hit buttons on the the outside of the arena which make geysers blast up and soak the lucky riders.


Lucky Mom got to load into car #7, the one car facing all of the water, while other riders loaded, so she was pretty much drenched before the ride even began.


Made for a cozy (and wet) 3 hour drive back to Palm Springs...

More Legoland



























































































Watch Out For Sharks!

Pool Day!











































Taqhuitz Canyon





































The first of many posts we'll be making about our recent trip to Southern California.


A lovely hike in the dry canyon. We saw all kinds of cacti and lizards! Quite a change from a hike in the Northwest.
