Dinner with the Sheltons

We got to have dinner at the Sheltons during Thanksgiving break. Let me tell you... Wayne makes an amazing turkey bagel sandwich! YUM! The best part of the night was seeing the kids together. Olivia and Mallorie are just too cute playing on the floor!

Courys and the Zoo

Charlotte and I enjoyed a beautiful summer day at the Zoo with the Coury cousins Ava & Noah! Thanks Sarah for your help all day!

The Almost Sleepover

A few weeks back we had cousin Christian over to play, and the plan was to have him spend the night. He didn't quite make it as an over night adventure, but the kids had fun together playing and watching the movie "Cars" and eating popcorn! Hard to believe that both of these kiddos are almost 3 years old and both getting new baby sisters in August!

Santa Train

We recently were invited to join Mia Mae and the Fix kids on the Santa Train! The train left from North Bend and went to the town of Snoqualmie (about 2 miles). When we arrived we got to meet Santa- Charlotte was super excited until the moment it was her turn to sit on Santa's lap. It was quite the adventure, but this is one fun group to hang out with- so a good time was had by all.

Raking Leaves

By Christmas time, usually we have had enough wind storms that all the leaves are long gone… but this year- although it is cold… there are still leaves left. Charlotte and Christian insisted on going outside to play at the Hoovers. We adults were so cold that we watched them from just inside the back door!

Bee Happy Halloween

(Mia & Charlotte)

Halloween this year was a busy day! Our evening turned out to bee a lot of fun! After chili dinner at Diana's (Lindsay's sister) we went to the Proctor area and met up at the Fix's house to join up with Mia and all the kids to do some door to door trick or treating. We quickly discovered that a block away at Mason Middle School was a fun Halloween party with games and candy! This was actually a lot of fun for Charlotte! Thanks to everyone who made our night a great Halloween! (Uncle Sean, Baby Bee, & Momma)

Charlotte got a little yellow star painted on her face and she kept saying, "Winkle winkle wittle star- its butiful!" SO CUTE!

(Lindsay & Garrett Camandona & the boys)

The gorilla was a little scarry for Charlotte, so we had to walk like 10 feet apart while his gorilla head was on!

Fall Harvest Fest with the cousins

Puyallup Fair 2009

We were joined this year by Heather and Mia Mae! The weather was record breaking heat- once again- but we drank lots of water and had a great time! Charlotte was super excited for the rides, until she realized (once she was on it) that they move! When the little rocket ride started moving and I thought she was going to burst into tears! But, by the last two passes, she was happy and enjoying the ride! The train was her favorite! Thank you Mia Mae for accompanying Charlotte on the rides! And thanks for joining us at the fair!

Christian's 2nd Bday

Saturday, July 18th we celebrated Christian's 2nd Bday!

Coury Cousins

Charlotte and I were able to spend a little time this summer with Sarah, Ava, and Noah (Coury Cousins). We had a great time, and wish we could do it more! One time, we even met at IKEA for lunch. This turned out to be a perfect place to meet with kids... the food is cheap (and good), and they have a great kids play area near tables for mommies to eat and visit. Thanks for hanging with us!

Here are the kids having a Banana Break in the kitchen.

Anderson Island Visits

Recently we have spent some time out on Anderson Island. Here are some picutres of us waiting for the ferry. And also Matt and Charlotte went out o visit the Hillmans and friends. Charlotte was a big fan of Kristin's dog Bear.

We want Mo!

Mo fun with the Moriarty-Delafuente bunch that is! Thanks you guys for a spending the afternoon with us in Portland at Mt. Taber Park! The playground was fabulous... Carlos and Sara's 4 year old son was hard at play the entire time! Their 6 month old baby Natalya enjoyed the sun while napping. And Charlotte... whew... she ran circles around us for the 4 hours we were there! We look forward to hanging out again... and next time I will take a few minutes break from talking in order to take some pics! Thanks for sharing!

Fun at the Hoovers
