Mexico Trip

There's even a welcome bar at the Cancun airport! Luke had his surgery right after our trip.

Spring Sports

We survived a hectic tball/softball season. Every Tuesday & Thursday the kids had simultaneous games, at the same park, but different fields. They were good sports and even Delaney managed to enjoy the extra playground time a couple of nights per week.

A Trip to the Beach by Kenzie

Today I went to the beach, (in Seattle). Well actually, we went to Archie McPhee first, a store that has lots of toys and weird stuff. I got an address book. Then we went to Blue Star for lunch. Finally, we drove to the beach. We passed 7-11 twice. Then...we were there!

First, we watched a guy tight roping. He stood up on a rope and walked between two trees. Then we played at the beach. Last of all, we saw some ducks and their ducklings. They were sooooo cute!!!

After that we went to the Cupcake Royale. I tried three different cupcakes; mint, orange, and lemon. I like lemon the best!

After that we went to the park. I had so much fun!

Easter Eggs

Great Times with the Talbott Easter Egg Dyers.

Luke's in Charge

After much grief, I have now officially taken over the blogging duties. Frankly I'd rather do this than clean toilets. More to come soon.

Princess Delaney

The princess game is all Laney wants to play these days. More beads, more dresses, high heels. She can't get enough!

Happy New Year!

We decided that we should make sledding a New Year's Day tradition. Although it's dry and 50 at home; it was snowing like crazy up at the pass (25 min away). Talbott family fun!

Love the pose.

Baking for Christmas

Today we made three dozen cookies for truckers driving through North Bend during this holiday season. These guys and gals are out on the road and need a little seasonal cheer. All three Talbotts dove into decorating, baking, and delivering our offerings. It was a thoroughly enjoyable afternoon!

Expeditors' Christmas Party

We can actually get dressed up every once in awhile. We spent the night at the Sheraton downtown where my office Christmas party was. It was great to introduce Luke to all of my new work colleagues- and we enjoyed the food and dancing too!

Thanksgiving Family

We had a great Thanksgiving this year at Joel and Tess' house in Portland. There were 17 diners in all! The food was tasty, and it was fun to see the cousins together.

Toothless Joe

This picture really says it all- big girl Kenz is out about 6 teeth right now. Four in a row on the top! Talk about "All I Want for Christmas is My Two Front Teeth". And yes, she has a cute lisp to accompany the holes.

Ain't she sweet?

Love this little bug!

Halloween Delight

We had such a fun weekend of Halloween celebrations! Friday night Luke and I went to a friend's party and we won "funniest costume" award for our sweet 80s workout gear. Then Saturday we went to the Gillespie's Oktoberfest and then back home for trick or treating. We have enough candy to last until next summer! Fun times.

Me and the big kids

My sweet family!

Between downpours we hit Fall City Farms to select our pumpkins for the season. We ate fresh donuts and listened to a local band play while we visited with the animals, ran around in the hay maze, and explored the farm offerings. Very fun!
