MALAKAI IS A STAR!

That's Malakai on the new Dr. Seuss game, "Dr. Seuss's Super Stretchy ABC's." Good job buddy!

Malakai turns 6...

Malakai has lots and lots of friends!

Lining-up to go eat pizza, cupcakes and open presents! What a fun time!

Holy smokes! Yep! July 24th has come and gone once again and I can hardly believe my little, little man is SIX! Yikes! This year Malakai requested a Batman-themed party at Jump Planet (celebrated July 23rd). He is so blessed to have so many friends...we even went over the guest limit...but everyone had such a great time and Malakai got some really cool gifts! His best friend, Logan, who he has known since he was just 12 months old spent the night after his party and the boys played all night with his new toys. They even included Maliyah- which was very nice! We went to a great park and had ice cream on his real birthday and in the evening we had dinner at Shaun and Todd's (Logan's parents) house (with Rob and Dawnn). Now it's time to start planning for Maliyah...Thanks everyone for the gifts and phone calls for Kai on his special day!

Let's Go Camping!

Roastin' marshmellows...can't go camping and NOT roast'em.

Great quality time...

Makin' breakfast for dinner because "somebody" forgot to pack the hot dogs! FYI- I was not responsible for packing the food.

Kiddos in front of the Snoqualmie river right in front of our campsite.

Last weekend Malakai's best buddy had a birthday party on Saturday and since we were already driving 1/2 hour South we decided to make a night of it by stopping at a campsite on the way home. We figured we'd try it for one night (baby steps) to see how the kids would do...and, of course, they loved it! I'm sure this will be one of our new family traditions!

Fourth of July

Watchin' the "show."

The kids had a blast on the slip-n-slide!

The kiddos with Grandpa and Grandma at Kory's tourney.

Visit to Granny at her house.

The kids loved the "little boy who peed."


Another family trip to Oregon for the Fourth this year. The kids had so much fun- and as usual Malakai cried as we pulled-away to head home to Seattle. His favorite part, other than seeing family of course, was playing with "Brother-Bear" one of g-ma and pa' s new cats. We also got to see Kory play a few games in her tourney! She's quite the little, I mean big player!
