October

Can’t think of a catchy title – so let’s get on with the pictures, eh?

It seems like Nate is a mouth-open smiler like his old man.

Who else would like to sit on my lap?  Lots of “cuddles” with “the little man”  Now…onto other family members!
   
Aldergrove’s Wall o Lantern was fun – especially with Charlotte Diamond doing a free concert. 

Nice creativity on the pumpkins, eh?

Lots of fun on the last day of October – onto the next month!

Sweet September

This month has just flown by!

Ryan is one year away from being a teenager…had some fun times!

      

It was a great month of sun…and yet lots of work had to be done inside. 

 

 

September is Soccer season…three kids in…Kaleigh LOVES it!

Amy had a milestone birthday – sadly, we only took two pictures on her actual birthday…missing the dinner out and the Open House. 

Awesome August

It’s been a great month – some  great memories to share with you!

Getting the official “hand print”, Ryan tried out a tablet – returned it and would like to get an iPad, and the kids at NW Washington Fair.

MiniMocha, Nate-post-Bath, Ali at the Grand Opening of the Janzen Art Gallery in downtown Lynden…she did a performance from CMT.

Some fun at the UBC Botanical Gardens…

July–Where did it go?

Well, it’s officially over, July 2012!  What a whirlwind of activity we had this month…lots of family time at Uncle Peter & Aunt Jana’s wedding:

The ladies had fun at the bridal shower.        The boys all dressed up…

Beautiful!                                The cousins together again.
   
Could Nate be ready for grub?           What grub?

July already…

Well, since I am on holidays and have a few pictures amassed already, here is a sneak-peak into our July so far:

In our first week, we went to Sheridan Lake, B.C. where we stayed in a cabin…and thank goodness!  It rained 75% of the time we were there.  Still had fun with the extended family who came.

 

The boys enjoyed hanging out – especially the older two with their uncle – the fisherman!

We stayed at Loon Bay Resort and this was near where the family who had RVs stayed…and of course, there had to be the ponytail…

We headed home and then went to Mt. St. Helens the next day.  We did a hike on “eruption trail” and Nate slept for 2 hours! 

Caterpillars and beautiful flowers thrive just miles from the mountain

Camping was great with Amy’s sister’s family…

Nathaniel was introduced to Auntie Jill here…we love this pic.
