My Girl

I was randomly snapping pics the other day. Emerson is so hard to get a picture of... she's so busy! I thought this was pretty cute! I love you Lulu!! xoxo

Hello???

Boy, oh Boy! What a crazy life we lead lately! I am still blogging... trying to spend more time with it actually...just getting ready to re-do the whole thing! Meanwhile we've been busy, to say the least! The girls are growing like wildflowers. Avery is going to be 4 in June and Emerson will be 2 in August. Time sure does fly!

Miss Emmy-loo!

Avery-bug!

Christmas!!

Christmas at our house was WONDERFUL this year! My mom and dad came over from Eastern WA, we got together Christmas Eve with Mark's family, stayed home Christmas Day and my dad cooked a yummy Christmas dinner for all of us, and the day after Christmas, we went to my grandparents' house for a Christmas/Birthday celebration for my mom's side of the family. We saw our whole family and had such an amazing time with our girls!

Avery was so excited when she woke up on Christmas morning! She said, "Mommy, Santa came! He really came to our house!" Absolutely precious... she was astonished!

Daddy helping Em open a very special present from Mommy and Daddy. It's the children's classic Goodnight Moon. That book is very special at our house!

I had to post this one! My brother's dog Jordy LOVED Papa Dome! He kept jumping up and standing on his back... crazy dog! And like every good Papa... he just let him!

Merry Christmas and Happy New Year!!

Happy Holidays!!

Boy, if this isn't the 4 of us to a tee, I don't know what is!

Happy Holidays!

...Hanging by a thread...

Yes, I'm still around....just going crazy during the Holiday season! Stay tuned for some fun pictures... I promise!!

Time at the beach...

It's not a great time in the Pacific Northwest for a beach visit the second week in November, but we had to take advantage of the weather (it actually stopped raining today and the sun shyly peeked out from behind the grey clouds) and get the girls and Webster out to run and play. We bundled up the girls and headed to the beach! We froze, Mark and I that is, but the girls and the dog had a blast...now that I'm home and warm, I'm glad we went!

Avery, her usual solemn self at the beach...she spends the time gazing at the water, throwing rocks and digging.

Emmy follows so closely in Avery's footsteps in so many different ways... she loves tossing rocks just like big sister!

Our handsome boy Webster LOVED the beach too!
And a post about the beach wouldn't be complete without a shot of the Mukilteo Ferry heading off to Whidbey Island!

My silly girls.....
