31st August 2009 | 0 Comments

we’ve had a good weekend. as the summer winds down, we always feel the need to start doing things we should’ve been doing all summer. like going for bike rides. in the past week, we’ve gone on 3 or 4 bike rides to the park. i even braved it and biked the kids by myself [...]

i’ve had a tough week. i got some bad news this week about some friends and i’m taking it quite hard. i’m not at liberty to discuss it, but if you would please keep "tam’s friends" in your prayers, that’d be awesome.    all that to say, the PERFECT way to spend friday night (as [...]

last saturday, dave had a work meeting around 11 so we decided to take the kids to downtown bellingham for a fun saturday morning treat – DONUTS! there’s a cool (slightly overpriced) donut shop called Rocket Donuts. every once in awhile, dave will go there at the start of his work day and get a [...]


tub time

  we did go to the fair last week. i have zero decent photos. davey was crabby. dave hates the fair, but likes spending time with his family (which is why he went with us). and i have zero decent photos. so i apologize for my false promise last week about fair photos on thursday. [...]

weekend adventure

17th August 2009 | 0 Comments

on saturday, we headed down to seattle. the plan was this: dave and the kids would spend the day with rachel (dave’s sister) and (if he wasn’t called in to work) sterling, rachel’s husband. i, on the other hand, would drive our vehicle from rachel’s place in west seattle to my dear friend, kelsey’s church [...]

don’t let these smiling, innocent faces fool you:   for many years to come, these two will be getting into all sorts of trouble together… we can see the signs already!   and i am slightly afraid!

she still only has two teeth. she’s still chewing on EVERYTHING and drooling like a mad fiend. but at least i FINALLY have a (not so stellar) photo of her teeth: kinda cute? at least you can see both of them in the photo (along with some saliva/drool)!   last night she went to bed [...]
