June so far.....

i know! i know! i haven't posted in weeks....and i am too tired to write anything witty..so here are the reasons to my blogging hiatus!

We got a brand new beautiful piano! Here is my dad after un-crating it...tuning it to perfect pitch with the help of the boys:

We got Jack all to ourselves while his mom and dad went Halibut fishing with grand-dad....this is the view of him for most of his time with us: in the highchair, ready to eat!

Here we are at the Birds of Prey! We were given a family pass for Isaacs birthday from auntie laura and uncle mike et al!
Proud nona...
She seemed pretty chill this weekend...even though she was the main care-giver for Jack!

Little ones turned 5!
Other little ones practiced their favorite past-time:

Party Time
Group shot of all Isaacs favorite peeps:
Auntie Carrie surprised Isaac with his very own Yoda Pinata!!
Here he is seeing it for the first time! SO AWESOME:

First Wack!
No candy here! Just toys and sparkles!

Star Wars Cake..these were his favorites that he wanted on display!

the 3 brave cousins.....

Just a favorite shot of my youngest with his favorite toy (of last week...he has now moved onto a tube of lip balm from the dentist he won't let go of!)

Some people went fishing:
All of them caught something great!

Dad with his 50 pounder! He could barely lift it!!
And lastly....lots of visits with friends:
good friends......
Laura came for her first sleepover with Oscar to the lake! We are aiming now to make it a tradition!
Andrew and Sarah and new baby Emily
Andrew introducing me to my first cup of coffee! (i just wanted a sip! hence the little cup--don't be fooled..its not expresso!)
Phew....and there we are: guilt from no blogging over!! It's been busy, it's been fun, it's sometimes been stressful, but we are very blessed! Here is to a great 2nd half of June!
