The Past 3 Months

Hey there, it has been quite some time since we posted anything on this blog of ours. So I thought I would load it up with some of the things we have been doing over the past few months. It has been a lot of fun, and we have been able to share some great times with friends and family.

Robyn and Paige and Payton visited our good friends the Gerbers in Penticton. I was at a men's camp at Rock Ridge Canyon while they stayed in Penticton and then we met up in Osoyoos, and headed south to the Orogon Coast.

Payton got very good at hauling his little suitcase around. He was just testing out it's off road abilities at this time.

We stayed at this little house on the coast, and Paige got to share a room with her cousin. Here is Paige showing of her ability to hang her clothes in her closet.

We had loads of fun on the beach.

Here are our kids after they have tamed some of the local marine life.

We had some great kite flying weather in Hood River.

Paige had her first gymnastics performance. Her class did a number to a song called Clean My Room, and they all had to dress up mismatched and messy, it was a great time.

I got rid of my nemisis tree in our back yard.

We have been spending a lot of time out at Fort Steele this year. The kids love it and I am finally to the age where I do find the history interesting. I must be growing up or something.

Well there you have it. I hope to update this thing more often this summer. So keep checking back.

Bye for now,

Swing and a Hit!

Robyn brought these cool little swings into the Flower shop. We don't have any tree branches appropriate for hanging a swing from, so in the basement it goes! Paige has only fallen off three times.






Bye for now,

Horse'n Around

So today we made horses... although Payton didn't always use his for that. They are pretty fun and the best part; when the paper horse face falls off you can still play hockey with them.

Paige's horse, Kolius...?

Payton using some excessive force with his pony.

I think they were a hit all around.

Bye for now,

Since the Last Time We Spoke...

So it has been a little while since we have put up some pics. So here are a whole bunch at once. Strap in and hold on!

We have been having a lot of fun these days as is clearly seen on Payton's face.

It is always amazing to me the fun one can have taking pictures of one's kids during the most normal activities, like snack time.

Paige took this shot of her brother... I am impressed.

A little St. Patties Day fun.

I just needed to point out that Payton is doing the Walk Like an Egyptian dance here.

This is the coolest soccer ball ever because Robyn made it!

A little early spring gardening. They are actually just watering the plants, and doing an awesome job of it I might add.

I absolutely love how Paige dresses and dances! She has so many great moves.

"No dad... I'm not up to anything. Just going for a drive that's all."

The kids are having so much fun with their wagon. They pulled it up and down our street, and I have a really great video of it that I will try to share with you later.

Did I mention that we are having a lot of fun these days.
