Tomato Obsession

I believe I have a tomato obsession! I have searched around and I believe I have the world's smallest tomato. Now I am obsessing over the most perfect picture of my new tomato friend and I won't even tell you how many pictures I have taken. Tomato will only live so long!



Aisha on the roof! She goes on the roof every night and loves to watch the view of downtown Seattle! Smart cat she is!



I took the kids and friends to Northwest Trek last week. It is a beautiful day trip and the kids had a great time seeing animals in the semi-wild of the park.

Colin's Birthday Party

Colin getting ready to rock climb at his birthday party!



NB too!



NB and Eva climbing up the rock. Good job girls!



The dads' are getting in on the action too! Way to go Jake and Ian!!



Look at Billy go. The best three year old rock climber that I have ever seen! He was so excited and ready to keep going to the top.



Can you tell the theme of Colin's birthday party? Super Mario Brothers. I am not sure the other kids knew what it was. LOL

Trip to Rockaway Beach, Oregon

We had wonderful mini vacation at Rockaway Beach! You can't tell from the picture, but it was quite chilly. This is the view from our motel balcony. Awesome! Even though it was chilly we had a great time and that didn't stop the kids from going in the ocean.



Maddie on the deck. She was fast becoming a beach dog!



Another great view!




NB and Colin at the pool. Ian took them there for a lot of swimming time! Good way to exhaust the kids!



NB perfecting her surfer pose.



My two handsome boys on a train ride to Garibaldi Beach!



I really do have a photogenic pup pup!



Yummy yarn goodness purchased at the Canon Beach yarn store-Coastal Yarns. Socks that Rock, color Grinchy. Although, I don't think that is the correct color name.

Soccer Days

Colin posing with his soccer ball! Too cute. He knew just what to do for the perfect soccer picture.



There goes a good kick.



Our Easter eggs dyed with brown eggs to get a more vibrant color.



What happens when Dad is in charge of the Easter baskets for the egg hunt? You get a Fat Tire beer package! And poor NB kept losing her eggs through the holes.





Colin looking daper!



My Easter cupcakes. They are vanilla with vanilla buttercream frosting.



Guess what Maddie has been up to? Good thing there are no plants to dig up in the back.



The Palazzo in Las Vegas and their flying umbrella display. Seriously, how can this not put a smile on your face! It's the happy place and another reson that is my happy place is the wonderful Links of London store! If you get a chance visit here. BEAUTIFUL.




I bought a beautiful Sweetie link bracelet. My next trip I would like this charm!. LOVE, love it!

What a four year old sees!

These pictures were taken by Colin. It is very interesting to see what captures his attention and how he sees things. I also like to look at the framing and composition from a child, as they tend not to over-think things. Any thoughts?
