This is what happens when you step in the house for about three minutes!!!!

Camp Fire

This past weekend Holly walked with Camp Fire in our local Jr. Daffodil Parade. This is a quaint parade that is primarily made up of kids. The weather was amazing and she enjoyed the parade. Only two from her troop were able to walk this year, but she enjoyed spending that time with her friend that made it. This was Holly's second year walking in it.

Story Time

Just some photos Bryan snapped a couple weeks back of our evening Story Time! These kids would listen to books ALL DAY LONG if we'd let them... so story time is a long, evening affair now!

 

Kanaskat Palmer Camping Trip

This past weekend we finally got the trailer out for a some Spring camping, our first trip this season! We took a short trip just to get our groove back down, make sure all things were working well with the trailer and get out of town into nature. We went to Kanaskat Palmer, a little local favorite camp ground that we have enjoyed many times.

The weather started out wet but actually cleared up to beautiful sunshine for the whole afternoon on Saturday - making for some nice outdoor time, nature walk, a bit of rock collecting and a campfire complete with smores. Sunday morning the kids got out a bit to go for a walk but we did a bit of indoor time and packing up. The weekend went very quickly but it felt good to get out and start the camping season!

Camera Download

YES, we are still here!
YES, I have not been blogging, sorry!

I have been letting my camera take a break. Bryan always tells me to not photograph every little thing and just embrace the moment to enjoy life. I do that, then I am hounded to blog - so, here you go I am back to blogging more and using my camera all of the time too! Not a bad thing, a good thing!

Anyhow, I downloaded my camera to find a couple of photos of Grandpa Hawk and Uncle Adam playing a game with Holly. One of her favorite little games called Fish Sticks. To be honest, this is probably one of my favorites too!

I hear rumor Uncle Adam won!

Happy Birthday Hudson!

He enjoys all things Dinosaur Train and has recently discovered Elmo. He adores art and would do it all day if I let him. He likes to be physically active. He is gentle. He like trains, planes and helicopters. Loves animals. He is funny and already tells jokes. He listens pretty well. He is a great little brother. He is amazing and loving. Happy Birthday Hudson!

Hudson enjoyed a great birthday this week! He started his day off with some presents, Dinosaur Train, a cash register, a wooden pizza set, a couple books and a new metal dino water bottle like Holly's. He really enjoyed his birthday goodies!

After a morning of play we went out for pizza, enjoyed the afternoon at the Tacoma Children's Museum, had ice cream for dinner and a bit of pizza for dessert. He loved it all!

Happy Birthday Hudson!!!
