Boys Camping Weekend

For Father’s Day weekend, Jonathan and a few of his coworkers went camping together with their sons. The boys took a ferry out to Lopez Island and stayed at Odlin Park. It was Kieron’s first camping trip, and he was excited and unsure of what to expect. Avery was counting down the days for the past month. It ended up being a soggy camping trip, but they made the most of it. The boys spent a ton of time playing in the sand, and the men cooked and drank. There were plenty of deer and eagle sightings, along with crabs and caterpillars.

And as for me and Silas, we enjoyed the peace and quiet at home!

Building, Baseball & Trains

Last month Jonathan took the boys to the Home Depot Kids Workshop one Saturday. They had a great time building little wooden boxes (perfect for sorting little lego pieces in).




The following day Jonathan and Avery went to a Mariner’s game together. It was through little league, so the kids got to get a close up view of the field. As you can see, Avery brought his little pug satchel with him, full of coins to buy a hot dog with.



The next week we went out to the local brewery for dinner one night. Afterwards, we took a stroll by the old trains across the street. The boys had a blast checking everything out.

Oh man, I am so behind on blogging again! Here are some pics from June. I will try to post more soon!

I love this outfit on Si

Preparing for the upcoming camping weekend. Kieron kept saying “all done!”

T-ball Season Winds Down

Avery had his final t-ball game of the season last week. Unfortunately, we’ve had a rainy month – people are calling it “Junuary.” It’s a good thing we had games scheduled twice a week, because typically one of them got rained out. Despite this, Avery had a blast playing and can’t wait to do it again!







What a pretty place to play ball!

Our Computer Broke!

It’s been a while since my last blog post, but for good reason. Our computer has been with the geniuses at the Apple store for the past week (if they’re so smart, why did they forget to give the cord back when they returned our computer)? Anyway, I digress…

I’m feeling a bit behind, so here’s a medley of cute pictures from the past month. Tonight I will download the last week’s worth of pictures for another entry!

We had a (very successful) garage sale a couple of weeks ago. The boys went into business together and opened a lemonade stand



Little Si, about two months old

All smiles

His serious face


Kieron is learning how to use the glide bike


And Avery is practicing dangerous stunts (great)

He climbs all the way up by himself (with a spotter, of course)


Avery says, “see little bro, tummy time isn’t so bad.”

Say Cheese! Just behind the lens, Jonathan was holding a piece of cheese
