With Kaia!! One week old and sooo sweet!!

Happy, happy moms!!

Boy was it hard to get a picture of everyone!! I think someone should've taken a video of all of us trying to get the kids to smile!


And...this was the closest one to perfect we could get! =)

The hunting Bug!

The mighty hunters!

Looking out Papa's telescope!

Chet wanted me to take a picture of the moose he shot! I love how he laid his gun on the moose! =) Such a hunter!!

The week in review!

I put the boys in matching outfits, but Chet didn't want to sit by Zane for a picture, but they were really cute!


We traveled down to Chico, CA on Saturday with Will's folks to go to Christina F. funeral. Christina was only 24 years old, being diagnosed with cancer when she was 21. We are so thankful for faithful lives, and glimpses of what life is really all about which strengthens our resolve to be faithful to God and give our all.

This was the sweetest action on Chet's part, as he laid down next to Zane after the funeral, and put his arm around Zane! I love seeing Chet's sweetness as a big brother!

Seanna's baby shower!

Kylee had a baby shower for Seanna last Friday, and it was so nice! Cubby and Seanna are adopting a little baby from Korea, and are going to get him in December! Seanna held every baby at the shower, so I think she is getting the baby bug! =)
Alyssa made a diaper cake! These are so cool!

Seanna and Zane!

There were so many little kids at the shower!

Let's go to the Zoo!!

We all went up to the Portland zoo last week, and it was so much fun!! All the kids had so much fun! At the end of the day, all the kids were happy and tired, and all the moms were exhausted! It was a great day and well worth all the effort!

Let's go! Martha, Zach & Josh!


Zach and Zane were so good the whole day! It equaled out for our other very active kids! =)



Josh, Zoe and Chet!!
