Weston Casting

Daddy taught him awhile ago how to cast on his own. If it was up to me I would have bought Wes one of those push button reels because I thought they were easier to learn on. Guess that is me underestimating Wes's ability. He does a great job. It's so cute to see Wes's leg kick up each time he casts too.

Fish'n With the Big Boys

This was a snake Wes caught all on his own. I'm not a big fan of snakes, but I think it's so cool Wes is into all the creepy crawly thing of this Earth.
This snake actually took a couple bites of Weston's finger, but that didn't stop him from bringing the snake to me to show off his favorite finding of the day.

Each time Uncle Doug and Wes would catch a fish, Wes would bring it to me to OOOO an AHH over. This little fishy was caught and released back to his home.


Can you see the fish hanging by the hook? ....thank you uncle Doug for a great time fishing!



Packing! and MORE...Packing!

Uggh! I just have to keep positive. We move into our new home next week. I'm so excited, and exhausted all at the same time. James and I drove by our new home this morning. Ahh...I love it! We took a walk up a path right next to the house that leads to a park, a beautiful park. This August I want to throw an open house party. I'll let you know more when that time grows closer.

Spring Concert




...hopefully I will obtain a recording of this concert from one of our friends at church. The boys sang so well, and Timmy Shea looked so cute when he did the action songs. Tomorrow we are off for a weekend of fishing!

Our Memorial Day Weekend

It was so hard to choose what photos to post! There were so many great moments captured on photo, I just hope you see the smiles on our faces which tell it all. The photo above was taken on our last day at camp which was located near Chinook pass. The boys had so much fun. Weston asked me if we could move there. ...James wore a proud expression from that comment.
Can't pass up those giant logs in our path to climb and conquer!

We visited Boulder Cave. This is the river that runs through it. Beautiful isn't it.


You have to wear your head lamps for this adventure. Aunt Clover bought the boys each their own lamp. Good thing cause I forgot mine back at camp. I took that moment to hold Weston's hand as he guided me through the cave. It was quite the adventure as Weston would frequently search the walls for bats instead of looking at the path. Our shoes were very muddy by the end of the path, hahahaha.



A picturesque moment by the waterfall. There was also a day James and I took a 1/2 hour drive to Mt. Rainier. I regret leaving the camera back at camp. The mountain was BEAUTIFUL! There was still snow banks 8ft tall along the road. We saw many hardcore skiers and snowboarders hiking up the mountain with their gear on their back. Wish I would have know about this, I would have packed the sleds for the kids. We didn't, however, pass up a good'ol snowball fight! We were all feeling a little soggy by the end of the day. There were marshmallow roasts every night, and frequent trips down the road to look for frogs in the local pond. Another great weekend full of wonderful memories.

Visit From the Tooth Fairy

This cute little boy spit a little tooth out of his mouth last Sunday while waiting for Dad to make another one of his famous crepe breakfasts. That night I found a little white draw-sting bag, perfect for a "tooth fairy" surprise. I slipped 8 quarters into it and made the exchange under the pillow while the sandman worked his magic.
