To the Best Dad...

Happy Father's Day to the Best Dad around!!!  I love that he chose to spend the day playing with his kids at the zoo.  He is the reason for our late bedtimes, and I love him for it.  He LOVES playing with these four and takes the time to invest in their lives in so many ways.  They are incredibly blessed with a wonderful DADDY!!!

Seabrook 2012

We spent a fun weekend in Seabrook with a very special group of families!  This was our 2nd annual trip, and the girls were counting down the days-they can't wait to go back next year!!

What a fun, huge bunch of kids!!
The whole gang!

Like true Northwesterners, these kids hit the beach, and ran for the waves...with a few brave dads following behind!
Happy to be at the beach!

Sweet friends...
Lots of space to dig!
Hannah realized that the water was pretty cold after playing in it for a long time!  The girls hopped into their friends' hot tub when we got back to the cabins!
Creative Jenga sculptures in our cabin...


A few pictures that Christy took of the courtyard , where the kids would gather and play with the dogs, throw frisbees, footballs, set up a soccer game, ride bikes, and chase each other around.  Basically, a huge backyard with tons of friends to play with!



PJs :)

A little down time on the couch with good friends...

Daddy looks like he is trying to relax! ;)
Lots of painting and coloring...
Goofy girls!


The "explorers"
and their hideout!
Playing at the park with our buddies...

LOTS of s'mores!!!

We love Seabrook!!!

End of First Grade!

Clara completed her year at Heritage co-op last week.  She selected some of her favorite projects from art to display...

 Danced with her ballet class in a mini-recital...

 and ate yummy treats with her friends!  Here is the proud graduate from Spanish 1...
 Celebrating with her sisters at the frozen yogurt place...
 On to 2nd grade!!!

Having fun at the shoe store...
 Eliza was sick last week, and needed some distraction, so we spent a fun few hours at Southcenter mall.  The girls were excited to find a rollercoaster ride...

 One of our favorite places-Rainforest Cafe!!

 We ate a little lunch, and then dug into our "dirt and worms"!

 Kids can be so humbling....we walked out of the mall with this Hello Kitty umbrella up the entire way....Eliza was tired, sick, getting crabby, and pretty much could do whatever she wanted until we got to the car! ;)

Having fun in his new summer clothes from grandma...



 Trying to get his foot up onto the shovel the way Daddy does it!  So cute!!

 Daddy's motorcycle ride...
 This one always amazes me....she watched the movie "Hop", disappeared, and came out in this bunny disguise...

 A super sweet, very rare moment....
Two beautiful gals from Seven Brides for Seven Brothers...ready for the barn raising!
 And here is one of the brothers ;)
 An afternoon of school, everyone working on writing...
 except this little guy, who is working on a huge mess!!
 Hannah does a great job entertaining and making games for Isaiah.  She's like a second Mommy :)
