This is too funny!

I had to post this...
Tessa talked Trevon into playing office with her.
As I came up the stairs I hear Trevon saying in the MOST bored voice, "Is it lunch break yet?"

July Happenings

As much as I would love to live in a place with sun and palm trees, I know I would miss all the beauty that WA has to offer...ferry boats, water, mountains, sunsets, etc.

We took a trip to the end of the world. I guess its formal name is Forks.

It really was a beautiful trip and we enjoyed several days of sunshine, beach time, fishing, and good times with friends.

(Trevon put on a little summer weight!)
They had never met before but they were buddies right off the bat

The three little beach beauties

The three little beach mamas

Wild sea life and a crab

These two thought they were loggers. Jeff gave them permission to do whatever they wanted in the woods. The next thing we knew they were pulling small trees out. I'm curious if we'll ever get another invite! :o)

It was so fun to get reacquainted with friends from our younger days!!!

We got to spend some time with Uncle M

What we've been up to...

Mega Post!

After 2 years of lessons and 3 missed recitals, I finally talked Tessa into doing one recital to just see how it goes. That was last November. Her comment afterwards was, "Now I KNOW I'm NEVER going to do a recital again!" She was so nervous. Seven months later...she did two recitals in one week! One for the teacher, one for her class at school. Way to go, Tessa!

Trevon has wished for a motorbike of some sort for several birthdays...

this year his wish came true!

And he even shares with his sisters!

~The birthday party and guests~

A game of charades

the pinata

the birthday "cake" (sundaes)

the dads made sure the goodies didn't grow legs and walk off

(the goodies DID disappear somewhere, though!)

Trevon up to some tricks.

Did you know if you fill a plastic bag with water and poke sharp pencils through it it will not leak?!
Field day at school.
