Santa's Coming to Town!

The children got to visit with Santa. Jake was excited to get a candy cane from Santa! Avery was to tired from waiting in line that she fell asleep and missed the Santa part! Anthony kept asking if he was the real Santa?? Looks real to me!
Happy Holidays and Merry Christmas to all our family and friends. We hope you enjoy all the festivities of the season and find all well in your homes.

Rain drops are falling . . .

In Washington it tends to rain and rain. We've had some good rain storms that have lasted all through the night and then the next day its been sunny. This was one of those day. But the park had flooded a bit. Little boys and puddles seem to always come together. Anthony, Jake and their friends ran straight for the puddle and got soaking wet. Jake got his pants wet and was too cold so he took them off and ran around in boots and a diaper!

Baby Blessing


Avery had her baby blessing on Sunday. It was such a nice sunny day for a beautiful princess.

Grannie and Avery ready for church.


Sweet Avery smiling! She had a wonderful day, since everyone was oohing and ahhing at her. It was nice to have all the grandparents there and Andrew, Kathy and the boys, and Pamela. We are so blessed to have Avery in our family.

Happy Halloween!

We took the boys to trunk or treat! In our ward that means the whole church parking lot is full!! We have a very large ward and a ton of kids!! The boys were worn out by the end of it all. Avery was the cutest little bug!! They also got to go trick or treating around the neighborhood on Halloween.

Pumpkins and more. . .

Anthony loves Halloween. So just for fun and to figure out his costume, he tried out the face paint! Pretty scary!!

Here is our beautiful Avery. She is 4 weeks now!! She weighs 10lbs 2oz. Getting bigger and stronger everyday. She is such a sweetie.


Anthony and Jake got their faces painted at the school carnival. I was crazy and took all 3 kids by myself! Anthony really wanted to go and so we all went!! With Jake on the back-pack harness and Avery in the baby bjorn, we ran around the school playing games and jumping on the big jumps. I'll never attempt that again.

HAPPY HALLOWEEN!!

Canada Trip

Our first unplanned family picture! Here we are all five of us! Sure looks like a growing family, can't believe how quickly life happens!! We took the weekend off and went to Canada to see the Olsen Grandparents. To show off little Avery and for Tim to (of course) go fishing! Salmon season is hot right now and that means lots of fishing!! Life continues onward and well I'm trying to keep up!!
Jacob and Avery!

The nursery

By request here are pictures of Avery's room. Those are vinyl letters on her wall, I absolutely love how they turned out.
