Our U.S. History Trip

We left our home in good hands! Thanks our dear family!

Kaleigh things flying is top rate...though, she was flying around in her seat most of the flight...looking through her travel bag and pretty much going through it all before touching down in Chicago.

After some homeschooling, the kids got to watch a video...whilst Kaleigh caught a catnap...what a great position for a solid sleep, eh?

Brendan (of all the siblings) was up and ready to volunteer to window-wipe our bug-plattered windshield...I think he got a good 1/10 of the windshield. :)

Ryan's Birthday Party

Amy's masterful work on Birthday cakes!

The boys...

The cake was yummy, eh?

Lego "free standing" tower building contest!

Lego parties rule!

So, this is a corn maze...not a lego event - still fun!

...and exhausting!

Awesome August

We had a great time on the Hood Canal...

Ali was a dare-devil.

Kaleigh & I had an adventure...to say the least...

So cool...that Ryan.

Nothing like a big ol' celebration with Grampy!

Our trip to the Island - great times with friends!

The kids had a good time too, I suppose...

Buchart Gardens were great...the kids enjoyed.


While I was at work, the Amy and the kids enjoyed Victoria's best.

Jammin' July

The Zoo rocks - we go every summer...

Kaleigh just loved the close-up!


Havin' some fun on a mini four-wheeler.

Waitin' for Oma to finish opening presents...

Tenting in the rain...pretty much dry inside!

Annual trek to Rock Creek - a bit chilly...

Good times had by all - boy were we hungry!

Hangin' at the flight museum with Grampy & Granny!
