Happy 4th!

The fourth of July is creeping up to be one of my favorite holidays. I love the late night, although it is HARD with little little ones. This year we went to our brother and sister's Kevin and Allison. And it was such a party. I choose 1 picture of each of our boys to celebrate.

Here is Boston below with his sparkler of the night. Vancouver does fireworks, but Kevin does FIREWORKS!!!! He has a whole table and lights 5-6 huge ones at a time. It's all good though, he's a fireman for Camas and super responsible. Anyways, it was pretty loud and somehow Boston ended up with these earphones on. By the end of the night he was running around with all the kids but he never dumped the earphones. That is where he drew the line.
And my cozy Coop with the flag. He is SO patriotic....at least until 7:30 and then it is bed time.

Cooper's Laugh!

Don't you wish a bowl of sweet potatoes made you feel like this?!?

Swimming lessons

K, let me explain. Boston started swimming lessons a few months ago and loves them. He is doing so great! So this last session we signed up for the 2 day a week course, why not, right? And we are serious. So serious that we are practicing in the bath with the goggles on, all around Cooper's boat bath. More pictures to come from the pool :)

Happy Birthday Kevin = Rockin Party for US!

Saturday night we spent the evening celebrating Kevin's 30th birthday. And um, we had a blast. I have decided to write less so I can show more photos. SO MUCH FUN!

Congrats!

These are dad and Shannon's engagement photos.  There are lots of cute cute to choose from. Here is a few.  Love you Dad.

8 months

Cooper is now 8 months old.....and it just keeps getting better.  Scrumptous :)

I am so bad

We moved into our new house almost 3 months ago and I keep saying that I will post photos.  I am finally getting around to it.  To my defense we have been busy.  And when the little boys come first, moving, unpacking and organizing are a distant second.  Anyways, here are a few photos of the kitchen area.  I finally have a clean kitchen so I grabbed my camera :-)  More to come.....no really for real.

One of my favorite areas, my desk.  I love the green and it is so cozy.

Kitchen.  The green pot has spagetthi sauce simmering :-)

Can you tell we have 2 little boys?  I normally put most of these toys downstairs but today they were still here and how fitting!
