Carmichael Corner: July 2011
http://carmichaelcorner.blogspot.com/2011_07_01_archive.html
Some days visiting the grandparents were filled with busy and go, go, go, but most days were more mellow. These were the days the munchkins scrambled behind Grandma's great big raspberry bushes and came away with red-tinged lips, days where they played in Grandma's backyard fountain and broke her glass figurine (sorry, Grandma! 4th of July BBQ and Fireworks. Okay Eric is responsible for taking the above picture. Goofiness. :). They even had board games. How clever! Caleb's mode of transportation in the p...

Carmichael Corner: Beautiful (Chilly) Seaside
http://carmichaelcorner.blogspot.com/2012/09/beautiful-chilly-seaside.html
These are from July. Yes, I'm so behind in my pictures. You wouldn't believe the process it takes to go through the amount of pictures we take. And at this point, in the middle of home-schooling.fuggetaboutit. This is gorgeous Seaside, and as you'll see, we're all donning jackets (well, most of us). It's just plain chilly, even in the middle of July. Essie's hug (above) caused sand to get in Caleb's eyes (below). My nieces Chloe and Riley). Why all the pictures of Esther? My sweetheart and I.

Carmichael Corner: August 2012
http://carmichaelcorner.blogspot.com/2012_08_01_archive.html
Almost every year we try to take some kind of a quick trip down to Seaside when we visit Eric's folks in Hillsboro. The kids love the rides and the beach and merry-go-round. Here they are getting a taste of Tilt-A-Whirl. Anticipation is killer. :). Getting ready to start our ride on the bumper cars. Abby held her own. Afterward we enjoyed a nice lunch at Sam's Seaside Cafe. 53rd Avenue Community Park. Here they're waiting for it to be dished out to them. :). Subscribe to: Posts (Atom).

Carmichael Corner: October 2011
http://carmichaelcorner.blogspot.com/2011_10_01_archive.html
Strawberry Picking (Peachy Pig Farm). These reminds me of Dora's berry-hunt song: "Going on a berry hunt. Gonna pick some juicy ones. We're not scared. What a beauuuuuuuuutiful day! Peachy Pig Farm - Part I. Okay I take a lot of pictures. I especially took way too many at this place called the Peachy Pig Farm because the location was just so idyllic, it seemed to scream pictures. This was back in July, that's how behind I am with editing through my pictures. The kids had a blast, needless to say.

I know it's been ages since I've posted anything, but school just started, and truly, a LOT has happened in my life in the last three weeks, so.I will be back soon. :). I just thought I'd post Essie's stats from her Kindergarten doctor check-ups:. Weight: 48 pounds (90th percentile). Height: 44 inches (30th percentile). Subscribe to: Posts (Atom).

Esther and the entire Kindergarten class performing songs with their music teacher Mrs. Puryear. Caleb with Papa and Grandma. Esther graduated from Kindergarten this last Friday. Can you believe it? I'm still in shock. How time flies. Essie and her teacher Mrs. Pace. Good K friends - Essie and Elijah. Dress rehearsal is the only time we're allowed to use flash photography, so I made sure to bring the camera this year. Above are two of Abby's good friends from school, Bethany and Hannah. Happy 64th, Papa!

Carmichael Corner: January 2012
http://carmichaelcorner.blogspot.com/2012_01_01_archive.html
Caleb and I went with my folks down to visit my brother and sister-in-law and, of course, their new bundles of joy back at the beginning of January. Such a sweet time. Caleb kept saying, "I want to hold the boy baby." :). Christmas Day Esther lost another tooth, her upper left tooth. Amazing. I think it's her fourth lost tooth. She's lost two teeth ahead of her older sister. Dentist called her precocious. She's definitely precocious in more than one way.. And yes, we got one for Esther too. See, this is...

Ranunculus - my favorite flower. I love our garden's flowers this time of year. Soooooooo beautiful! The colors are like something out of Candyland. The mountains above are the perfect backdrop. This picture above I photoshopped to look like a watercolor painting. This one above has also been photoshopped with a brush-stroke effect. Also photoshopped - a different type of watercolor. Having fun with AdobePhotoshop. ;). Carmichael Fam Easter 2012. Grandma's Easter Egg Hunt. Aren't they a bunch of cuties?

Portland Children's Museum Part I. This place is sooooo great for kids. I can't even tell you all the fun attractions they provide, and all for $9 a person. Not bad, considering Disney's entry fee is, oh, merely a couple arms and legs these days. This is the water-feature area, and let me tell ya, the kids love it, Caleb especially. What is it with kids and water? Can't seem to straighten out the order on these pictures, and not all of them uploaded. Blogger is a piece of work these days. We set out to g...
