Our First Big Snow Storm (10/6/07)

On October 6th, we had an early snow storm. We eventually had about 5" of snow for Brayden and Dylan to play in outside. Our black lab Sierra, had never seen snow before. You can tell she is going to have a lot of fun with it this winter. I went to Shopko and and picked up the only 2 pairs of snowpants available in the boys' size. The lady was just putting them out on the rack. The boys had a ball playing outside all afternoon.

Jaci's 1st B-day Pics

Andy took the kids to get Jaci's 1-year-old pics. She had a lot of cute ones, but this one was especially cute. She was about done and wanted nothing to do with her brothers and their kisses.

Jaci "Blue Eyes"

Jaci Lyn's birthday is coming up this next Friday, October 5th. She has recently begun to take her first steps on her own. She has been fun to have in our home over the last year. We love our little girl! We are planning on having family over for dinner, cake, and ice cream to celebrate.

Red Sox vs. Mariners

On Friday, August 3rd, I went to a Red Sox vs. Mariners game in Seattle with Dad, Cole, and Shaun. We spent the afternoon at Pikes Place Market eating mini donuts, fighting crowds, watching the fish fly, laughing at a few locals, and checking out the sights. We ate at a nice seafood restaurant with Krissy and McKenzie and kids. We headed off to the game afterwards and we gave up fighting traffic. We parked at least 2 miles away and hiked in. The game was fun. We all want to do it again. If Shaun and Krissy are still there next summer, you can bet we will make it happen. The Mariners won 7-4.

Dylan's 3rd Birthday

Dylan celebrated his 3rd birthday on July 19th with a delicious Mickey Mouse cake that his creative mommy made him. He also got his first bike -- now he doesn't have to share with his older brother Brayden. He was so excited to get his bike he had to ride it in his pajamas.

Summer Review -- Brayden and T-ball

Summer has come and gone just as fast as it usually does. We had some great times this summer. Brayden played on his first T-ball team. There were 4 teams of 4-year-olds from our subdivision alone with 13 kids on each team. (A lot of young families in our subdivision/ward!) He played on Mondays and Wednesdays and always got a chance to bat twice. His highlight of every game were the refreshements.

Andrea and I are excited to create this new blog where we can share new events and pictures with our family and friends. We are new at this whole thing. Hopefully, we can figure it out quickly and post some fun info to share with everyone.
