Brian finds a camera


I record the view each day, here I am getting caught up on my episodes after a busy week.

Well the Mariner's lost 14 innings later!!! Oh well, we had a lot of fun at this game. It was a beautiful day to visit the ball park.

The Fourth of July at Les Grove Park



A couple of self portraits with the family!
The Fourth of July is serious business, look at this face. Our little ladybug.

We "share" a strawberry lemonade.


The Jumpy Bouncy Toys are Ellie's new obsession!

Later we went to watch the fireworks over Lake Tapps, I have NEVER seen so many fireworks in my whole life and Ellie slept through the whole thing.


Ellie meets BaBy PaXoN!

Ellie meets her new cousin for the first time.
She shows him the card she colored just for him.
Later we let her hold him on the couch. "I love you, baby Paxon!"
"Baby Paxon cries alot because he is a baby," she says.

This scene usually starts with, "Mommy can you help me put on my princess dress, so I can be a princess?" Then it goes, "Mommy, I need my princess tiaaaaraa (emphasis on the ara)." Finally, "Mommy, I need my wand. Do you know where my wand is?" She got this princess dress from our family in Texas (My sister). Her cousin has one just like it. She loves this dress. She turns in circles and dances on tiptoe.

This "princess bed" was a hand-me-down from a neighbor girl. I often find Ellie curled up in her "princess bed" with Geeky and Na Na, she says, "I'm taking a nap." Then steals a pillow from a nearby chair.




Flowers from the last day of school.

These ones are from Brian! Awwwe!
This was a tough day for me saying goodbye to teaching. I never got so many flowers on one day. I had so much to do, I forgot to take my camera along. I know one of the mom's took pictures, I will have to get them from her and post them.

The Old Ball Game







My LiTtLe CoOkIe MoNsTeR!

We have a Laurie Berkner song we love to sing called the Cookie Bakers of the Night! Our favorite part is... "the cookie bakers had to try to catch the cooky cookies, the cookies bakers had to try to catch the cooky cookies, the cookie bakers had to try to catch the cooky cookies, and they'd eat 'em they'd eat'em they'd eat 'em all up! Up Up Up!" We definately ate all these cookies up.
