A Walk in the Park


Those eyes. Those cheeks. That face.



Tree hugger. Just like dad. Yeah!




Holy Pumpin Patch, Batman!

We've had two stupendous fall days here in the Northwest. What better to do on those fall days than join THOUSANDS of other people at the pumpkin patch!




















On Friday, Luna went with Mommy and Oma to a farm in Skagit.





Vancouver Island Camping Trip!

This post is a little late in coming - our family camping trip was back in August, but I finally got around to making a little short video of our trip. Click on the link below to watch our Animoto movie of our awesome trip!

Luna Turns 2!

OK, I'm a little late in getting this post up, but here we go anyway. We celebrated Luna's 2nd Birthday on a glorious, sunny Saturday. Some of Luna's favorite peeps joined in the festivities - it was a fabulous day! Here are some of the highlights:

Luna & friends coloring at the picnic table
Blowing out her candles
Yeah!
Chocolate cake is good
Marcus & Luna playing with the exercise ball
Luna got help from her buddies Marcus & Rowan
Rebecca & sweet baby Sage
Rowan was great at showing Luna how to open her gifts!

So much excitement, Jada was tuckered out!

Ever Been To McCall?

McCall, ID is a gorgeous little town north of Boise that sits next to Payette Lake. Old family friends live there and early August is a great time to visit. Daddy took Grammy this time because Mommy was working and because Grammy hadn't ever been there before. After a flat tire and two days of driving, we made it. Of course, Luna wants to read books right away with Aunt Cathy only taking breaks to chase the kitty.


Daddy set up some computer stuff while Aunt Cathy and Luna played on the slide.


Later we walked through Charlie's Garden. This is apparently someone's backyard that has been turned into sort of a park. As you can see, it's a beautiful,tranquil little place. I could spend hours here.







What kind of lilies are these? Marvelous.


Oh and the Columbine!


"There's Luna!"


One tuckered out kid.


A visit to McCall wouldn't be complete without a trip to the farmer's market. It's small, but Y-U-M-M-Y.


We love you Aunt Cathy (and Uncle Donnie, too!)


There was a day when daddy was a lot smaller than Aunt Cathy. Not so anymore.


Always sad to say goodbye. Already looking forward to next year's visit!

We had a visitor hang out on the windshield during a stop at Costco in Clarkston. "Look daddy. BIG bug on the window!"
