Chase - Director

Chase had some fun with his iPod tonight, making this cute little video of Tate. (Who certainly has figured out how to make his Sophie the Giraffe squeak.)

I bought a new highchair for Tate, getting ready for solid foods, he looked so little sitting in it. He isn't quite 5 months yet but I thought I would give rice cereal a try. He didn't eat it, just let it sit in his mouth. We'll keep trying.

Tate's First Husky Game

Tate's first Husky game and it was a WIN! The Huskies beat Hawai'i, 42-30. He loved being at the game with just mommy and daddy, (no crazy siblings).

Uncle Kevin and Cousin Adam were at the game too and we joined them to watch the end of the game.

Ryder's First Soccer Game of the Season

First game of the season for the Dutch Lions, (how did they come up with that name?). First year with goalies and so all the kids wanted to be goalie, Ryder did a pretty good job, not allowing any goals on his turn at goalie. Maybe next week he'll score a goal himself!

The First Day...

 I can't believe it, the first day of school for Chase and Ryder. Every year I wonder where the time has gone. Now here they are big 4th and 2nd graders! Chase took his spot on the front porch for the annual first day of school photo, he knew it was coming. Ryder on the other hand had to be persuaded to get on the porch for the picture.
Another first for today, Ashtyn's first dance class at a real dance studio. When I told her that she had dance today she squealed with excitement. Throughout the entire class she had a smile of her face, she loved every moment! She looks so grown up in this picture. I can't believe that next week she starts preschool.

Sunriver


We had all had so much fun in Sunriver, it was hard to say goodbye. Thank you so much Grandma and Papa for treating us to a wonderful, fun-filled family vacation.
