Hanging Out at the Park

 Mr LJ showing off his coolness.

 Tyty chowing down on some chocolate.

 Karl and little man using the kite.

 Mr DD almost getting caught.

 Annnnd there it is...... He stole my chololate..

Here is my handsome big little man. These pictures are long overdue and I cannot believe how much these boys have grown. The rare glimpse of Superwoman in the picture with DD is the bestest sister- friend in the world and she is the mother of these wonderful boys minus my Tyty.

We loved going camping this summer and we had so much fun. There was so much to do and not enough time to do it in. We also went to the Irish Pub and Restaurant that Karl and I went to on our honeymoon called Galaway Bay.... Loved it!

the many poses of the little man

I watched my son for 10 minutes and could not believe how much he moved... I finally grabbed the camera and started taking random pictures... he asked me what I was doing and I told him I was taking pictures of him and how he was sitting... he posed for the last one... tongue and all :)

Random

 Like father like son

So I was going to look through my pictures and find some random pictures that have been taken lately and I found myself organizing them AGAIN! I think this is what happens every time I try to do a blog post. Anyways...... This brick is at the Cougar Mountain Zoo. Our favorite place to go to see tigers and wallabies and parrots and lemurs many more other beautiful animals. Hope you all are enjoying the weekend!

Arizona Trip

 Our first stop in California was to the Jelly Belly Factory!! It was loads of fun smelling the sugar (not tasting it of course). The factory was closed down for maintenance but they still let us tour the factory. We went with the Mashler family on our adventure down to Arizona.

 Tyty and I in front of the Jelly Belly car! Our trip was not complete without buying Belly Flops.... YUMMY!

 Next stop was Legoland Tyty had a BLAST!!! He got to ride on all the BIG kid rides for the first time and he had so much fun.

 This car is sponsored by Volvo and besides the wheels it is completely made out of Legos!!!

 Tyty with his cousin Brady....Those two were so cute together....

 Lily Binks where is your drivers license?

 In Arizona they have outdoor malls with waterparks in the middle of the shopping areas. We took advantage of our favorite one.

  This is my brothers kids...... They are amazing.. I miss them so much. I am so glad that I got to go down there and see them. We had so much fun. The only thing I wish I did different was I had to fly home and I wish I was able to drive because the drive home is also really cool with everything you get to see.

Summer!

  Leave it to my son to be goofy and wear the best dress up clothes he can find at school. This is in his classrooms dramatic play area, the theme was water and everything about water. His teacher lives on a boat and so she brought in her gear and he LOVED it! I am so glad that I get to go to work with my son every day and that I get to see stuff like this on a regular basis :)

May... the most expensive month in our family....

May in our family consists of almost everyones birthday except a select few...... Tyty thankfully was born in October and I was born in the summer so that helps things but we have May 1,2,4,5,7,12,24,25 and the 31 already taken.... Sadly this year Karl celebrated his birthday without us. He went to a Sounders game with Daryl and Rachel.
We went to my grandfathers surprise 80th birthday party which went VERY well and he had NO clue!!! My Aunt Sandy did a great job :).

 My Grandfather was convinced he was going garage saling.

 My Grandmother meeting my nephew Brady for the first time.

 My Grandparents meeting my nephew Damien for the first time.

 The ladies and more littles....

 The cakes....

 My Aunt Sandy and Booga

My Grandfather was in 7th heaven having as many of his siblings there as possible! It was AMAZING!

First time 4 wheelin'

 We went to Miss B's birthday party today and Tyty got to ride on her 4 wheeler for the first time... He was alittle nervous as you can tell and he wasn't so sure what to think about it at first.

 He got alittle bit more comfortable on it and was alittle bit happier as Miss B drove more around the backyard.

 Then he got to drive, oh no... He caught on pretty fast and he did not want to get off!

 This where I found him the rest of the time we were there, if he wasn't jumping on the trampoline... Then the battery died.....

Tyty whacking the pinata!

Happy Birthday Miss B!
