Another beautiful night on the Great Northwest!

We have had such a great summer!! Our summer adventure started when we moved into a different house June 1st! We moved about 5 miles from our old house to Edmonds, WA. We have a beautiful view of the Puget Sound! We get to watch the Ferry's, Cruise ships, submarines, beautiful sunsets.....all from our deck or pool! The kids have loved the pool, and so have I (it is a great babysitter!!). Mike had the month of July off of work, so we got to enjoy the pool and boat alot over the past month!! We have had alot of great swim nights with friends!!
We have also spent alot of time at baseball tournaments with Zac's little travel baseball team, it is fun to watch your kids! I am much more nervous watching my own kid play than when I played myself!! You just want them to succeed. Now we will be following both Zac and Jake, they will get to play on the 9U team together, we have our first tournament this weekend.....and will be missing Sea Fair out on the boat watching the Blue Angels.....oh well, maybe next year!!


Our one vacation away from home (it is hard to leave this place!), we took a friends RV and went to Southeast Idaho to visit my family, and I had my 20 year class reunion!! I had sooo much fun seeing my high school classmates! The RV was a great way to travel, the kids absolutely loved it. It was so funny seeing Mike driving that big RV!! His dad bought him a captains hat to wear in the drivers seat, it was funny.

Now our summer has ended, Mike went back to work on Monday (UGH....single parenthood here I come!), and the boys started football practice. Now we are practicing baseball and football at the same time!! Poor Addison spends most of her day in the car and at some kind of practice!! She is the boys biggest fan! I am looking forward to football season, but it is a hard adjustment on everyone when Mike goes back to work. We miss him!!

  1. Your summer looks awesome and i bet those sunsets are amazing to look at every night! Good job on getting your old rental peeps to break their contract. :) That is sweet you guys gotta take an RV to Idaho. I'm sure the kids loved that. Are you kidding about that little Harley?!!! I thought Linda was gonna have it at her place? Oh my gosh Jete is gonna freak. He is going to be so happy, thank you so much!!! Also, i have all those pics from Jake's baptism for you. What's your email address?
