4th of July

We had a fun time this fourth of July with family...

Sparklers are always a favorite of the kids'.

A friendly competition between brothers...

Newport, OR

We made two trips down to Newport this summer in Jared's parent's Motorhome. The kids absolutely love camping and love the beach.

We even took Dustin, Jessica, and Jett the second time!!

Good times were had by all!

Paige Growing Up

Our big girl graduated from pre-school this fall...

It's hard to believe she's not a baby anymore!!

And, if that wasn't bad enough ~

She started Kindergarten this fall!!


She's really turning into a beautiful young lady.

DisneyWorld!!!

We had a great time in Disneyworld in May. We spent 10 days. It was sunny and hot and wonderful!! We spent 6 days at Disney, 1 day at a waterpark, 1 day watching the Atlantis Shuttle launch and then hanging out on the beach, we also did lots of shopping!! What a fun time we'll never forget :-)

More Playing OUTside

Here are two shots of the kids playing out in our yard. The creek started running (a little) last month. The kids enjoy taking walks ("adventures" as they call them)around our property.

Randall Park

We are so excited for the weather to start warming up...Here are a few pics at Randall feeding the ducks! We have been visiting the parks a lot lately, kids are sick of being stuck in the house!

Logan's 3rd Bday

Our little Logan turned 3 back in November. He had a great party at Kids' Castle with much fun had with his friends and family. Back home, he got his present, mainly from his dad, a four wheeler made for kids. It goes pretty fast, probably too fast for a three year old, but he loves it!

Christmas 2009

We had yet again another great Christmas with our family this year. The bottom two pics are of the kids with Santa on Christmas Eve at Chad and Julie's house (an annual tradition that started way before our kids were born!). The top pic is Christmas morning with all the presents under the tree!
