Happy Halloween!

 She never wants to be anything less than a princess.  This years choice: 

SNOW WHITE

 And we sure love this little guy but his costume couldn't be more fitting:

A little TURKEY!

At our Church's trunk or treat. 

(Olivia really did enjoy it more than she is letting on in the picture.)

Weston turned one the other day! I can't believe that he is already one!! Time is going by so fast, and he is keeping me busy (along with his sister). He is such a joy in our lives and adds a spunky personality that we love and appreciate.  He loves to make others laugh and just about everywhere we go he has just about every woman swooning over him.  (He's starting early!) He loves playing with his sister and making messes.  Everyday he empties the toy cabinet completely out before he decides which toy he wants.  He brings a smile to my face and makes my heart melt.  We love you Weston!

Above:  Here he is in the morning, when he woke up to the streamers and balloons.  Enough to keep him busy for a while! 

Below: A quick family pic on his big day!

 

 G & G came over to celebrate with us.

 

He got some fun new toys and a great new hat for Winter.  Good pick Grandma!

 

And then it was the minute I am sure he was waiting for; CAKE! (actually a big cookie)

 He doesn't get sweets very often, so this really was a treat for him! 

Happy Birthday Wesman.  We love you!

Olivia's first day of School

 Olivia started pre-school this year. (in September) She is loving it.  She enjoys all of her teachers and comes home singing new songs all the time.

Here she is on her big first day.

Summer Days/G&G Wee/Dads birthday

During the Summer, we spent time, doing anything that would entertain the kids.  

 This day of entertainment (or at least 20 min) consisted of pulling out all of the plastic sacks that need to go to recycling. 

 

 Anything with a steering wheel, buys me time!

 

We would go anywhere and everywhere in our little community to keep them happy. 

 

Olivia loves waterfalls and trains! Its a good thing they are right next to each other... which also made for a fun family walk.

                                         

And sadly, our fields of green, turned to gold... however, still pretty... just not the green that I love during spring. 

 

And I don't know what we would do without parks.  We lived at the parks this summer.

Grandma and Grandpa Wee came up for a visit in August.  We went and spent a day 

up in Cour D' alene which is always a good time.

And we went on our fair share of bike rides also.  We have some great trials in our area.

Oh, and just before we headed over to the San Juan Islands, we spent a day in Seattle. This is the only photo i got before my camera battery died.

And all summer long, we were able to spend lots of time with cousins. Olivia has the best cousins. We love our family!

We also celebrated Dad's birthday.  He is the big 31 and working harder than ever. We are so blessed to have him as a father/husband. I count him as my one of my greatest blessings. 

Olivia picked out a special present just for him.  (Who wouldn't love a huge pair of sunglasses!)

 Lookin' good buddy!
