Ezelle Christmas Play 2010

image CLICK ON THE PICTURE
Our family did a Christmas play this year just for fun and to of course help the kids get a little better understanding of the Christmas story.  We all had a lot of fun and hope to do it again in the future.  Iva has already told me that she wants to do it again next year.  That is encouraging!  Please check it out on Cohen’s blog by clicking on the picture above.  This link should take you right to it.  If not, you can go to http://www.ezellec.blogspot.com/.  Be sure to check out the bloopers too!
Hope you and your family had a wonderful Christmas!
Love,
The Ezelles

Trying New Things

I am trying out a new way to post my blogs.  I found something on my computer that is supposed to make blogging easier.  So, I am testing it out.  Seems pretty cool and it has some neat things to play with on here.  Like this picture being tilted and the little watermark in the bottom right corner.  This blog is an experiment to see how it turns out . . .

Winter in Belize?

      

Okay, so it really isn't "Winter" here per say, it is the Dry Season, but it is December and to our kiddos it is, "Soooo cold outside!"  This morning I heard them say, "Mommy, I need a jacket!"  I'm sure some of you are laughing right now, but to them it is cold outside.  I'm not sure what the temperature is exactly, but it is anything but "cold".  I am loving the weather right now!  It feels a little cool at times, but it is the perfect kind of cool.  I don't want it to ever get hot again!  So, I am going to enjoy this "cold" "Winter weather" in Belize as long as the good Lord allows!  By the way, as I write this post I can hear Samuel and Iva outside playing and I just heard Iva tell Samuel that she isn't cold anymore.  She is taking off her jacket as we speak!  Please don't be jealous all of you "flip-flop/sandal loving people" out there.  Your time will come soon enough!  And, if you have snow at your house, please enjoy it a little more for us!  Merry Christmas!!!  And, Happy Winter!!!  And, Happy Dry Season!!!  And, while I am at it, Happy New Year too!!!

Christmas Lights in Belize

Tonight we went out for a little drive to see some Christmas lights. Here
are some pictures of what we found. I guess I need to read the instruction
manual of my camera before we go out next time, but at least you get the
idea. The kids really enjoyed seeing all the pretty lights! Levi was sad
when we finally pulled back into our driveway; he wanted to see more! We
will have to do this again next year! And maybe one day we can put some
lights on our house too : -) The kiddos would really love that!

Popcorn and a Movie

Check out our little crew all together with popcorn in hand enjoying some
"Little House on the Prairie".

My Little Pre-Schooler




Check out my littlest pre-schooler in action! He loves writing his ABC's on
these little dry erase cards. Thanks, Marnie, for this neat find! He was
so proud of his "w"! I am excited for him :- )

Look What I Can Do

Look at me! I can climb up into the rocking chair without any help! Look
out world! Or, should I say, "look out floor!"?

Friends

Here is some pictures of our last night at one of our family's favorite
places to visit here, "The Ice Cream Parlor". Marlem and her mom, Vila, run
it and Julio, Marlem's son, helps them. They are a wonderful family and
very dear friends to us. The ice cream parlor is what everybody calls it
and it is going to be missed. Please pray for our friends as they are
seeking the Lord as to what direction they are supposed to take.
