No Training Wheels

Luke has been trying out his bike without training wheels
from time to time and here's the proof!





It looks like he's crying after this crash,
but he's just laughing - silly kid!

Memorial Weekend

We've had a great Memorial Weekend so far. The weather has been great, which was not predicted, so a nice little treat for us. We've spent time at the new park by our house, played a little backyard baseball, and taken dolly on the swings. We're hoping to make it to the beach tomorrow to catch a low tide and explore some tide pool animals.

Hot fun in the sun

Today was our first really nice day of warm weather here. The day was spent at soccer in the morning, lawn mowing, t-ball in the backyard, some fun in the swimming pool, popsicles, a great BBQd dinner and two tired kiddos.



What's better than your ATV in the pool and a popcicle on the swing set?


********************************************

Luke has gotten very into his Legos the last 5 months. We have progressed from Keith and I building them exactly like the directions say, to morphing the designs to create a quick build for him, to Luke building his own, to him losing the Legos for a few days since he wouldn't clean them and left them scattered all over the living room floor, to finally Luke creating some pretty neat cars, space ships and his name....

Finally...
When we were in Chelan in April
we went down to the lake to throw some rocks
into the water after we spent some time at the park.
We found this great rock arrangement while we were there.


In case you can't make it out, it says,
"WE LOVE U!"
Which of course we do.
Have a great day!!


Welcome!

I hope this blog helps you keep updated on our family's adventures. It's my goal to update it twice a month so that you'll get more frequent photos of our sweet kiddos. Just as a trial run (since I'm learning this at a class for school right now) my photos are all from last summer and fall. When I get home I'll update with more recent photos. Enjoy!
