Our trip to Spokane October 9-14th

Our family made the 5 hour trip to Spokane once again, but this time it was to see Eric, Sarita, and Lily- we hadn't seen them since Christmas! It was so great to see them, and to see how well the kids liked each other! When Lily first got off the plane, she came right to me and cuddled with me for about 20 minutes- I loved it! Lily really liked Halle a lot and loved to hug her and kiss her and touch her belly. She also thought it was lots of fun to chase Caleb around the house! We had such a great time seeing Eric and Sarita as well- Sarita and I were actually able to get out by ourselves for some coffee time- thanks Grandma! We loved our time with the family and we look forward to the next time we can see them again!

Lily's dedication

On Sunday Lily was dedicated at the church

Eric, Kristen, and I grew up in. Here are the

three kids all dressed up! (yes, Halle is

holding Grandma's toothbrush that

we still can not find to this day)

Grandpa with his two pretty grand daughters!

The Three cousins together!

When Lily first saw Halle she wanted to kiss

her and hug her- especially on her belly! It was

so cute!

Uncle Eric with Lily and Halle!
Lily and Halle playing together- they really
liked eachother!

We tried to get a picture of the three of them

but as you can see- Caleb and Halle decided

to wrestle instead!

Auntie Sarita with Halle!

No lie- I went to check on Caleb at 2 am and he

had crawled off his bed and was sleeping on the

shelf of the changing table!

At "The Farm" in Snohomish

This weekend we went up to a really neat farm

with Jay, Nikki, Hudson, Grant, and Grammy Dee.

We had a great time and the weather was absolutely

gorgeous! The boys especially loved the play area and

the barn filled with hay bales and hay to jump into!

(above: I tried to get a cute sibling picture of the

two, but of course- it didn't happen)

At Greenbluff with grandpa and grandma

After the wedding in Missoula we spent a couple

of days in Spokane with my family. On Sunday

it was gorgeous so after church and naps we took

the kids up to Greenbluff!

Cliff and Brittany's wedding

On September 26th, one of Landen's good friends

got married- so once again we loaded up the kiddos

in the car and road-tripped across the state! The

wedding was in Missoula, Mt but due to our last

wedding experience with a "certain someone", we

decided to leave the kids in Spokane with my parents

for the day!

way to Spokane)
