Discovery Kingdom San Francisco!

What a great time we had visiting Uncle Glenn and Aunt Trisha in San Francisco! One of the best parts was visiting Aunt Trisha work: Discovery Kingdom! We rode rides (multiple times!), played in the water, saw and met some amazing animals! What a wonderful and memorable day! Thanks Aunt Trisha!

Meeting the Animals!

Not only did we get to spend the day riding the rides and playing games, we got to meet 4 amazing animals; Kai the Sea Lion, Sadie the dolphin, Mallory the elephant and even feed hungry sting-rays! Trish even showed us what where she works and what she does every day; the amazing skills of Sadie and we also got to feed her!

In memory of my grandma; A woman I admire more than anyone else in the world. She has overcome more in her life than I can imagine and still remained one of the happiest people I ever knew. She will be missed by all who knew her and especially by me. I love you Grandma, my world is a better place because of you

It's been too long!

It has been a crazy year! So crazy that I have neglected this blog! As my School year resolution I have promised myself to keep up on this! Pictures and exerpts to come!

Pictures from Christmas Time

Harbor has the greatest smile!

Koda wearing the nightgown the G-Mos made for her for Christmas!

It's so fun to watch the excitement on their faces!

Doesn't everybody eat olives off their fingers like this??

I wonder where she gets this "crazed" look from ???

Time flies . . . . . .

Still had these on my computer, so thought I'd share them! The kids grow too fast!

Scout: 4 years old!

Harbor 2 years old!

Koda 8 months

Why don't we ever treasure these moments? We get so caught up in daily life . . . . I hope I can get better at realizing how fast time goes and we never get it back . . . .

The Cub Scouts go to the Ft. Lewis Army Museum!

This past Saturday we headed to the Ft. Lewis Army Museum with the cub scouts. I had never been there before and it was great. They have some very cool stuff there and also free admission! Unfortunately that was the last day they are going to be open; they are closing for the next 18 months for a full renovation.
This was the kids favorite part-from left: Tyler, Dakota May, Lester and Harbor.
So cute!

This was Harbor's favorite!

Scout loved the jeep! Had to send a picture to dad!

Halloween 2009

Halloween this year was quite the busy event. Now that the kids are getting older, I swear we walked a quarter of Rainier! They had a great time, especially since their cousin Logan joined them. Koda was Thumblina, Harbor was Bakugon (kids show/toy thing . . .) Scout was Harry Potter and cousin Logan was a skeleton keeper. After we did the surrounding neighborhoods we headed to a church in Lacey for some trunk-or-treating. By the time we were done at 9pm, the kids were pooped! What a great night!

Pumpkin Carving

Now that the kids are getting older, pumpkin carving has a whole new meaning! They did most of it themselves, and I still continue to find pumpkin seeds around the house!
They all wanted to take their shirts off so they wouldn't get all sticky, don't know where that came from but once one wanted their shirt off, they all did!

Scout lost his first tooth!

I have been waiting and waiting for this tooth to fall out and it happened but he wasn't even home! I can't believe I missed it! The tooth fairy sure was good to him!
