Little Ballerina

She is coming along quite nicely I must say.

And now we are caught up!!!

Here are the kiddos at Halloween 2013.  Little man is the Dark Knight and Little miss is a fairy princess. She was going to be Spider-Man fairy princess but my guess is that someone convinced her there was room for only 1 Super Hero in the house. 

We also got to dress up for the holiday.  Our neighbors have a costume party ever year and this year Sean was determined to not be scary/gory.  This was his idea (and I whole heartedly agreed!)

Scooby dooby doo!!!!!

Rhododendron Park Portland, OR

Sean and I both had lived near the Rhododendron garden by Reed College.  Neither of us had ever ventured in and that was a mistake on our end.   They say the best time is around Mother's Day so we have already marked our calendars.  Warning, Little Man was not feeling the love with the camera so lots of back of the hear shots for him.

Walloon Lake July 2013

Oh how we cherish our time at Walloon.  Grandparents, cousins, parades, smores, firepits, tubing, jumping off the dock, sand castles, I could go on and on.

Hood River

There is a great little town along the Columbia Gorge called Hood River.  It is known for the lavender fields so off we went.
