A Really Good Sport

What can I say but Maggie is one great dog! She sure does put up with a lot!!!!

Houston We Have A Streaker!

Uh, this was totally D - no prompting here. And let's just say someone thought they were VERY funny! Well okay it was hilarious! I think the funniest part was the fact that she couldn't see but it didn't stop her from running around. Matt got some great shots of the moment - just have to track them down.

Maggie And The Pool

What do we do around here on a hot afternoon? We break out the swimming pool silly! The verdict is still out in which of us girls enjoys it more. Alls I can say is what happens in the backyard, stays in the backyard - well, okay, these pictures and videos are too cute not to share.

Camping With Dad & Maggie

This past weekend Matt had a taste of single parenting. We've had this big camping trip planned with Uncle Ben, Auntie Liz, Cousin J-man, & Matt's Cousin Elissa and family for months. When it came down to time to go Momma C wasn't so well and had to stay home. So Matt braved it, packed up the girl, the dog, the van and headed out to a beautiful lake near Mount St. Helen's. Let's just say he didn't get a chance to take any pictures - hum, wonder why? busy chasing a 16 month old? Here's a few that were given to us. Apparently they all had tons of fun - Dylan got to go in a canoe with her cousins, which she loved, sit by the campfire, AND sleep in a tent with her dad and dog! Good times where had by all and besides a few mosquito bites, a little scrap on d's nose, and a very dusty dog all survived. AND Momma C got to rest up and get to all those little projects around the house that she seems to never have time to get to (helped keep my mind off of all the fun being had without me)!

Nothing like a cold refreshing Hamm's beer after a long day at the lake!

Kiddie Pool Time

Suns out and there are kiddie pools awaiting! One afternoon Dylan and I met our good friends Miles, Gia, and Shannon at the Volunteer Park kiddie pool for a little splashing time fun.

Here's the line up of trouble - Dylan in the background, Miles in the middle, and Gia out front.

Then d headed straight out to the big boys who were playing tag or something. She so wanted to join in.

Splashy, Splashy, Splashy. What a little fish.

Amazon Fresh Delivery

Have I mentioned how much we love Amazon Fresh? It's a time saver for sure! Go online order your groceries and whala hours later the food is delivered right to your kitchen - yes, they even carry your goods right into your kitchen. Here's a photo of momma's little helper - oh so proud of her climbing abilities! Such a big girl, getting her water all by herself. Or perhaps this could be a new slogan for Amazon Fresh - 'not just an online grocery store' or maybe 'theres many ways to use Amazon Fresh'

Hood Canal

Cousin Jackson & Dylan

Fourth of July weekend we packed up the Eurovan and headed out to Tom & Judy's cabin in Tahuya. We watched a parade, played with cousins, dug in the sand, took wheelbarrow rides, and Dylan even took her first bike ride (okay with the help of her dad). We even all slept in the van for the first time.


Wwwhhhhheeeeeeeeeeee!!!

Crabs!



Best toy of all a huge cardboard box.
