Happy Birthday Papa

Happy Birthday Papa from your Grandkids in Vancouver. We love you.

Oaks Park June 30th

Aunt Heather and I decided to try out toddler time at Oaks Park. We got there 10 minutes before the park opened and were able to ride all the kiddie rides before there were any lines. The boys' favorite ride was the airplanes with guns and Star Wars theme music. We will definitely come back to this summer hot spot.

June Rain Dance

Sometimes it's nice to just enjoy the moment. It started pouring in the early evening so the boys wanted to watch the rain from the front porch. With door wide open, sword in hand, TJ and Russell went out and fought the rain. I just sat back and watched the magic.

Papa Tom, Grandma Andrea and Uncle Tyler come for a visit

Back in April we were so lucky to have Papa Tom, Grandma Andrea and Uncle Tyler spend a few days with us. We wanted to do something special for their visit so we rented a friends beach house for a night in Long Beach. We had such a wonderful time. We played games and watched movies when the weather was not so great and then spent time outside when it was. Uncle Tyler and Papa Tom were experts Light Sabor warriors. TJ and Russell got surprise Bat Man Capes made by Grandma Andrea. We need to get pictures of the boys in those online.

Walking down to the beach

I actually won a game of Scrabble against all these brilliant people
