A Few Pictures of our Summer

 Micah and Ethan after their exhausting week at YWAM.

 Hope chilling with Curtis at Green Bay.

 CERAMICS....so much fun!!

 Carnival night at Green Bay.

 Micah is now a skater boy :)

 Enjoying a Booster Juice at the Chilliwack Airshow...yes Dumbo was allowed to come.

 The Search and Rescue plane was Micah's favorite especially when they parachuted out of it.

 We could not get Curtis away from this game at Chuck E Cheese...security was watching him closely due to him always winning BIG.  The kids reaped the benefits of his winnings so they were happy.

The first day of school.  Cannot believe they are going into Grade 5 and Grade 2....where has the time gone???  How can you not love these two :)

It has been awhile!!

Lots has gone on since our last post.  We celebrated Hope's 7th birthday with a webkinz party.  The girls had tons of fun, especially when they could make their own sundae's :)
A couple weeks after Hope's birthday, she was at a friends house eating an ice cream sandwich, when her first tooth finally came out.  She had been waiting and waiting for it to fall out.

Ashley's Big Day

Baseball

The Big 1-0

Well, Micah has hit double digits which is crazy!!

Spring Break

Just a few pictures from our trip down South. We had a great time away and love the Pacific Northwest more and more each time we visit.

New Cooks??

Night Sledding

We had some fresh snow earlier this week, so after supper Curtis shoveled and the kids and I went sledding. It is kind of nice to have our own hill for the kids to use.

Happy Birthday Dudley

We celebrated Dudley's birthday the other day. His gift was a bone larger than Tanks. Let's just say that Tank was not impressed with the situation :)

Winter Smores

Christmas 2011

A Few Pictures

It has been awhile since I have updated our blog, sorry. In this hodgepodge of pictures there is Curtis feeding a fox an egg, Micah in his glory with all of his hockey gear on, the kids decorating the Christmas tree and showing off Auntie Darlene's Christmas ornaments and the beginning stages of our hole in the wall.
Enjoy!!

Riding a Horse

Hope went to a birthday party last weekend and the kids were able to go for a horse ride, if they wanted. I did not think Hope would go but she surprised me and was eager to hop right on and go for a ride. We could have a future cowgirl in our midst.

First Day of School

Just a wee bit late posting this picture of the kids first day.

Family Picture

Green Bay

Green Bay was excellent this year!! I think a major part was how wonderful the speaker was and feeling warm weather for the first time this summer. Micah and I painted a cougar in ceramics and I must admit that it looks awesome! The picture on the blog is not the finished product, we still needed to add some more brown as well as black. Hope was a ceramic machine and we had to put a limit to the amount she could make. Due to the sunny weather, we pretty much lived at the beach in the afternoons. It was hard to get Micah out of the water especially when he was on the blob. Our family always enjoys our time there and we made many new friends as well as connected with some old ones and are already looking forward to next year!

Vacation 2011

We had a wonderful couple weeks away!! We stayed on the west coast and enjoyed Cultus Lake, Birch Bay, Seattle, and Alaska. The kids were excellent travelers and had a wonderful time. The baseball game was actually lots of fun and I was able to cheer on the Texans. We are very thankful for safe travels and time together as a family!
