Our Fall

A little behind here, as I type sitting in front of our Christmas tree. Oh well, better late than never. Just wanted a share a few pictures from Halloween, pumpkin patch and the lake.

and she's FIVE...

Our first born is 5! Happy Birthday Carsyn Reed :) After school we met our girlfriends at Red Robin for a special b-day lunch, then Mom and Dad took Carsyn to her first movie! Cloudy with a side of meatballs....Carsyn got a big blue slurpy and popcorn :) We had a great time, the movie was pretty cute!

Pool Party time! Sunday was the birthday partaaay :) It was a great time, thanks to everyone who came to celebrate with us!

Carsyn's quad! Now she can keep up with McCoy-- Thank You , papa & Gma!!

Back to school YAY!

Finally, back to school for Carsyn. She loves school, and was really itching to get back. She is at Shoreline Children's Center again this year, but she is in a new room, and has a new teacher, Teacher Jo :) She is going MWF again, and so far is having a great time. Here she is on her first day.

Blueberry Bombers!!

If you have never watched 4 & 5 year olds play T-ball, I highly recommend it. Here are some pictures of our first game, last Thursday in the 100 degree heat!

Carsyn....

The other day she is talking on her cell phone and this is what I hear..."and then my water broke, and I was like, oh no my water broke! What do I do? And then the whole country's water broke!"

She has been wearing my one pair of heels around the house since we went to the parade (very inspired by the drill teams) Anyway......heels are on, she is loading up her babies in her stroller.... " Ok, hang on babies , this is gonna be a bumpy ride, I got my heels on today" LOL!

He's TWO!

Our baby is two :) He had a wonderful Birthday hanging at the Zoo by day and partying at the jumpy house by night. He is such a sweet sweet little man, and such a mama's boy, and I'm loving every minute of it :) Soon, he will want nothing to do with me. He had a good 2 yr appt, weighing 27 lbs and 33 3/4 inches tall! He is a little guy, but doing great :)

Happy Campers!

After a great 4th of July weekend at the lake with friends, we set out for our family camping trip! Nothing better than no phone, computer or TV for a week. First stop Pearrygin Lake, just a few miles from Winthrop, WA. This was our 3rd year at Pearrygin, but our first time getting a camp spot right on the water :) It was fun having our own little beach access. We rode bikes, played Tball, went to the beach, walked to the little store to spend money, had campfires with smores, took a trip into town to get ice cream, went fishing, and even rented a boat! So fun. Carsyn has caught many fish in her short 4 1/2 years, but this trip she caught her first fish from a boat!!! It was pretty cool :) After 4 nights at Pearrygin we packed up and headed to Bridgeport, WA. We were taking a gamble as this was a smaller park that did not take reservations, yikes. Luckily, as we were pulling in looking for a spot someone was packing up and getting ready to pull out. Yay! For the next 3 days this was our home. All the sites bordered a huge field that was perfect for Tball, soccer, and some rousing games of marco polo! The swimming area was great, very shallow and lots of rocks for Bud to throw, and fish & bugs for Carsyn to catch in her new net! One of the greatest things about our new spot was, it was just 40 short minutes to the Chelan water slides!!! What fun! They had a perfect kiddie pool and slides for the kids and some really fun ones for mom and dad too :) Definitely going back. Once again, it was a great family vacation, can't wait until next year.....
