Addy's 5th Birthday!

Hard to believe but Addy is five! She is so excited and tells me that because she is now five she will do the following...like tomorrow:
Lose her first tooth
Ride her bike without training wheels
Read books
She is making progress in two of the three goals above, reading and bike riding. I really am glad that she is naturally a kid that likes to make goals...I just wish that she understood some of this takes time!
Addy is really ready to start kindergarten and we are all excited (a bit sad too) about this new chapter of our lives...she will always be our "little" girl but sometimes I swear I am talking to a mini-teenager. She is such a sweet and kind hearted little lady and we are super proud to be her parents!
Below are some pictures from Addy's party. This was the first year that we had some iffy weather...we were glad it cleared off a little bit so we could BBQ and hang out outside. Thanks everyone who was able to make it so special for her!




July 4th 2011

July 4th was a lot of fun this year...like most years, we celebrated with Jason because it's also his birthday! The morning of the 4th Joel, Addy, and I ran in the Great SW Footrace. Addy completed her two miles in 23:38...she did excellent but was exhausted when we finished. We were so proud of her for sticking it out and finishing.
This year we also got to go to my parents house for a BBQ. My grandma, Maris, Chris, and the kids joined us. We had some fun target shooting, I know...weird but we got to use Ellie's pink bee bee gun, Joel's favorite by the way....I just didn't happen to get any pictures! The kids ran and played all day and eventually we all ended up in the hot tub.
Cutie!

The Kids

Maya...loves climbing around on Papa's tractor

Tyler and my dad displaying their guitars. Ty has been learning to play and is doing really well...he now gets the honor of performing at every family function which we enjoy...not sure he does though:)

Pre-race
Nice work Addy!
Go Joel!

Addy's First Mariners Game 6-18-11

Although the Mariner's didn't win Addy's first time at Safeco Feild was still exciting. We went with Recreation Without Boarders and really enjoyed not having to drive (and park) not to mention the fun trivia on the buss!
It was "Felix Night" and we all got super sweet stocking hats (pictured below).

Its About Time...

Posted by Picasa


So it has been a really long time since we last updated the blog and although I could list some excuses the blog will speak for us as to how busy we have been this past 11 months. We are all doing great and have enjoyed many adventures during this time.
Enjoy the blog!!!

Maya's 2nd Birthday

A little late...
Maya turned two on March 7th and we celebrated with a fun family and friend get-together. Maya enjoyed the attention and the presents:). Angela's mom made Maya a quilt and it was instantly a hit.
Thank you everyone who was able to celebrate with us, you are all important to us and have helped make this a great memory!
