Summertime Sweetie

The weather was perfect all day today. Not a cloud in the sky and warm but not hot - perfect for laying on the grass on a blanket. My little sweetie sure thought so. We'd like to order up some more of this weather please.

Oh, hi baby!

Something about her curly little lips and cheeks reminds me of her daddy in this picture.

A Few New Pics

Here's some pictures Kathy, Ben's mom, took. As you can see Sophia loves her Grandpa and Uncle Jeff!

Family Potluck

Yesterday we hosted a Family Potluck at our place complete with grandparents, aunts, uncles, cousins and second cousins. It's always good getting together, but I'm sure everyone would agree the kids are the life of the party. Entertainment consisted of watching three of our newest family members roll over, crawl and make faces.

Thanks to everyone who helped. We'll have to do this again soon. :-)

Fun Times With Family

Here's some pictures from our weekend in Westport, WA with my family. We celebrated my mom's 50th Birthday and did some deep sea fishing. I hear the grand total is something crazy like 220 lbs of fish we caught collectively. Fish tacos anyone?

Sophia and I did not brave the sea. We decided to sleep in and just meet everyone down at the pier when they came in.

So how do you really feel about deep sea fishing?

Big smiles and red hair???
