Wednesday, January 26, 2011. December 2010 and January 2011. Well obviously my goal of getting up at least 2 blogs a month didn't happen from November - but here's to trying again. :). Our family had an awesome Christmas and New Years. We were very busy, but didn't have any less fun because of it. We had 4 Christmas' this year between different families houses so many of the pictures are from those celebrations. A special treat we don't always get on Christmas was SNOW in Seattle! Valerie was too cute in...

Monday, April 19, 2010. Here's Kai with Sadiyah, Martay and Robert. Quincy is one of Kai and Kolbie's friend. We watched Quincy when he was a baby, and he and Kai have a special little bond. They love to wrestle and run around with eachother. The wind was blowing but we got the cake lit and blown out all at the same time. It was great timing. Here are a few pics of the show. :). That is a real man narrating in the left hand corner. Just to give you perspective on how actually big the dinosaurs were.

Monday, June 21, 2010. Day Trip to Bonneville Dam. On June 12, 2010 mom and dad came up from Salem and we took the kids to Bonneville Dam. It was free fishing day for kids under the age of 12 and the event was held by the Department of Fish and Wildlife, which is dad's stomping grounds. He knew MANY of the people volunteering to help at the event. When you walked around you could see the channels in which the fish had to go through to get through to the river. This is them swimming up stream. The kids th...

Saturday, May 1, 2010. She has her spurts of energy and play time, but is still a puppy at only 8 wks, so she is tired out soon. She has provided a great play mate and disctraction for Abbie, who at times I don't think she really knows what to think of her. Having just been weened from her mama, she has tried to feed on Abbie a couple of times, but that quickly ended as Abbie stood to the ground, letting her fall to the floor hard. She learned her lesson, and Abbie I don't blame you one bit. :). Kolbie d...

Wednesday, December 2, 2009. Grandpa's Lil' Princess and Music to Our Ears. Wow, she can't be my child at all, she looks nothing like me. :) JK! She reminded me more of fancy nancy, the whimsical character in the childrens books. But she did not like being called that. This is one of her many poses; as you can see, I don't know who she would have gotten that from :)! Such a character.she loves you bunches too! Thanks to Becky, we still have great photos of the family on their blog. :). Love you all,.

Thursday, January 28, 2010. MLK Weekend in Bothel. Martin Luther King Weekend. We were able to get away for the weekend and go visit Micah, Becky and Valerie. It was alot of fun, because A. we got to see them and B. I took the kids on the train to get up there, and only Kolbie and I had been on the train before. We got there around 12:30 pm and settled in and got acquainted with the new house, which we had never seen before. It was absolutely gorgeous and the kids loved the space. Even the guys got in on...

Wednesday, March 24, 2010. Here's our little muffin, tater-tot, pixie, love bug, babygirl. These are all her names other than the one given to her - Kolbie! She thought she would chill on her birthday,while I made pancakes, eggs, and bacon for breakfast. Sunglasses and all, she was one lil' mama takin' a breather. I'm 3 now, I'm a grown up.". Kobie got a bit of a bloody nose when the play date ended and the celebration began, so we had to stuff her nose with a little tissue. She's still such a dolly.

Sunday, October 10, 2010. We were able to end our summer with a fun little vacation up to Seattle to see Micah, Becky and little Val before the kids had to head off to school. We had a wonderful time and the kids had alot of fun. Kai, Kolbie, Valerie and Sadiyah. Kolbie had her hair braided the week before the trip, so I thought I would share with you all, Kolbie's first corn rows. :). Kai getting more foam thrown on him! After a while the clothes had to come off. So on went the feeding of the ducks....

Thursday, August 5, 2010. On July 25th and 26th, Sahaan, the kids and myself went on our first adventure to Wild Life Safari. We have been trying to do things different each year and last summer was time spent at the beach. This year it is in Southern and Central Oregon. We stayed in Roseburg about 10 miles North of Winston, at the Holiday Inn. This was the view from our window. What a great river right? Kolbie and I on the balcony! The next day was the safari. When you first enter, you start the saf...
