Love Sweet Love

Maria left us! We had so much fun with her while she was here, we wanted her to move in! We got to do so many fun things...Whidbey Island, Barking Frog, Woodinville Wineries...Engagement Pictures!!!

Here are some other pics from Whidbey Island.

Flannel Bros.

Keith! We miss you! Come back soon and you and Erik can play with cannons again!

Just thought I'd add this pic I took a few weeks ago...

Ballard Locks With Our Okie Friends!

Its always fascinating to visit the locks and watch the boats rise and fall.

The Fish Ladder allows salmon to swim at a gradual incline while bypassing the locks. There is an underwater viewing gallery where visitors can watch the fish fight the current.

Technically speaking...this is caviar...but I wouldn't eat it if I were you...

We are seriously deficient. Get it? Deficient of seriousness.

"Salmon Waves" by Paul Sorey. These stainless steel sculptures represent waves made by juvenile salmon as they make their way upstream.

Love this girl!

He's pretty great too.

Josh, we miss you! Come back yo!

Its Been a Long Time...

I haven't posted in quite awhile, but I have a good reason! I've been working! I got a job as a preschool teacher here in the Seattle area! My class size varies everyday, usually I have about 9-12 students and an assistant teacher.

The kids are so unpredictable! The other day a little boy started chanting "Barack Obama...Barack Obama" and within minutes the entire class had joined in, barely able to pronounce his name.

Bumbershoot is taking place as we speak! Kelsea treated us all to tickets yesterday, so we took a cab downtown to check out the action.


What a great place to meet new friends!
Kelsea and Herb really hit it off...


Travis really loves to share...

Arthur taught Josh that sharing...is caring...

and Maria got to touch fingers with the world's tallest Asian...
