Family Pictures!

There were so many pictures that I loved I had a hard time narrowing down which ones to put up!

Franklin Falls

We went on a little hike to Franklin Falls with the Chang's Labor Day weekend. It was the first time the girls didn't go in a kid carrier! They did good! I think we all enjoyed getting out in the woods!


Where did that pose of Nora's come from? The kids liked the big tree! It was huge!

We ate lunch at the falls!

First Day of School!

The beginning of school means the end of summer. I am a little sad. I love summer! I had a great summer! It is finally getting easier to go places by myself with the kids so I felt like I was on summer vacation this summer! Ezra was very excited to start kindergarten! I drove him to school the first two days than I let him ride the bus. He loves riding the bus and he loves school. Vaughn started 4th grade this year. He was only excited to go back to school to see his friends! It is so hard to watch (and let) your kids grow up!

Lake Roosevelt August 2010

We have decided that we really like boat-in camping at Lake Roosevelt. This might become our annual summer camping trip! We went in August for five nights with Ernie's brother Steve and our friends the Trent's (they have four kids too). It was a great time! A little cliff jumping, swimming, roasting marshmellows, riding sea doos, treats at the marina, climbing walls, exploring caves, laying in the sun, a deer swimming across the lake, collecting fire wood, wake surfing, and wakeboarding. I think that about sums it up! Check out the video Ernie made! www.vimeo.com/14370949



The kids loved swimming around.

Steve took Nora, Mila, and Kayden fishing.

This was just too cute!

Cliff Jumping!

I am so glad they have each other. Twins=Best Friends!

Exploring a cave! Who is going to go in it?!

Too Much Fun!

I went down to California with the kids to visit my sister-in-law. As Vaughn would say it was "Too much fun!" My mom drove down with the kids and I so I didn't have to do the 19 and a half hour drive by myself. We left June 20th. Ernie flew down on July 2nd. My brother-in-law Jake came home on the 2nd also after being gone for 9 weeks and Ernie's sister Sheena and her husband Steven came over from Arizona at the same time. We spent the Fourth of July weekend together. We left Monday July 6th at 6:00 pm and arrived home July 7th at 3:30pm. The kids and I had a blast. The kids took swimming lesson. We went to Sea World, to the beach, celebrated Vaughn's 9th birthday, and went to the neighborhood pool almost everyday. Here is a little video Ernie made. He changed the setting so you should be able to view this one. Let me know if you can't!

Don't you wish he was roasting your corn?!

Ezra's Preschool Activities

Ezra's preschool does a big program at the end of the year. He had to dress up as a little German boy and did a little dance.

Ezra got to go on a lot of field trips. This one was at the Puyallup Fair.

Ezra went to a friend's birthday party from preschool. It was at Jim's U-fish. He caught his first fish!

MY GIRLS ARE THREE!!!

We survived another year of twins! I must say life is getting much easier with twins. The girls are so much fun! They love each other so much and stick up for one another. It is a whole new expericence watching twins grow up. We love them so much! They fit our family perfectly and make it complete. We are so blessed to have them!

We went to Kauai with the kids in February for a week. We stayed at a condo on the beach in Kapaa. We were there with my parents and aunt and uncle. Ernie made a video of the trip. You can check it out here.
