Tom Petty


Ryan and I went to Tom Petty at the Gorge Friday night. We went with our good friends Andy & Kim and Slag & Hillary. The weather was gorgeous and the music was great. Thanks Kim for the pics!Posted by Picasa

"Problem Here"

Kylie has been helping in the evenings with little tasks. She wants to help clean up and she is pretty good with a broom. I was using the Windex to clean the mirrors in the bathroom. I returned it to under the sink, but got busy and didn't lock the cupboard. I returned to the kitchen to a squirt of Windex on my pants. She squirted the floor one more time before I got the bottle and turned the sprayer to "off." She tried to quirt again and tells me "problem here." I was laughing so hard that I couldn't get mad about the quirts. Kylie is a very vocal kid and has picked up so many words from Grandma, Grandpa, Nany, Ba, and all her aunts, uncles, and cousins. You have to be careful what you say around Kylie Rose. She will repeat it all.

Paint Paint Some More


Last Saturday when the weather was beautiful Kylie wanted to paint some more. We decided to try it outside this time. Kylie was trying to add the paint to her paper, but it didn't make it there. She ended up slipping and sliding n the paint for a while that landed on our porch. She came up with it and she was pretty proud of herself. Check out this girls art work!

Pudding Cake


Last night Grandma Shirley brought us some chocolate pudding cake. It was delicious. Kylie wanted to use her plastic kitchen silverware at dinner last night. She was eating her cake with the knife, when I left to change the laundry. When I returned she was asking to get down. I didn't even look at her until she was in her bedroom in front of the mirror saying "Kylie is funny." She used the knife to spear the pudding all over her face and then wanted to see her work in the mirror. This girl is keeping us busy.

Graduation 2010

My beautiful cousin Leah will graduate from Glacier Peak High School in Everett on Thursday night. She is going to Central and we will get to see her more. We are very excited! Congrats Leah!

Our Yard Project




"Sunny Days"
Ryan and I worked Monday afternoon on hanging the gate. It turned out really great. Ryan created and constructed the gate. I am impressing with his creative ability. You are the best Ryan! Kylie has been enjoying the extra time in the yard. Last night she spent an hour digging in the dirt.

Memorial Day Weekend

We started our Saturday morning off with cleaning Katie and Bryan's new house. I got to help for a couple hours, then it was nap time. It it gorgeous and we are looking forward to many gatherings. It is finished and they are moving in today, yeah! Conner and Kylie are typical almost two year olds. They were having some sharing problems, but they are getting better and working on it. They ended the night playing together it was cute.
Ryan and Jay BBQing. They enjoyed watching the kids and hanging out outside. It was a great Saturday night in Pasco. Thanks for a wonderful evening of fun and a fabulous dinner.
Kylie is afraid of something, "fire." She gets very nervous around hot and fire. She didn't want anything to do with the sparklers at Jay and Amy's that night.
Conner is such a cutie and he was not afraid at all of the sparklers.
Amy and baby Jack outside enjoying the sparklers.
Kylie giving kisses to cousin Will's dog Gus.
We went to the Fleshman's to help them brand their cattle Sunday afternoon. It was fun to go somewhere new and watch Kylie experience new things. Thanks for a great afternoon!

Aunt Elaine and Kylie in the pig pen.
When we went to Elaine and Mark's for the branding, Kylie talked Elaine into seeing the pigs. She was really into it. Ky was even singing her EIEIO's.
Sunday night we went over and made dinner for Nany and Ba. When we got home Ryan made a fire and we had smores for a dessert. Kylie again was not into the fire, but she did love the treat.
This was Kylie before we went inside. She was mad that I made her go in. She helped me wash the car Monday morning. Ky kept getting into the soap bucket and saying "swim."
We worked on hanging the gate into out yard, so we can now leave Kylie in the yard. It turned out great and Kylie was a good little helper.
Uncle Ry and Caden after his preschool graduation. Ry and Caden have a special bond.
The girls were a little wild. They wanted to run all over the school. They stopped for a cupcake snack.
Monday night after the graduation party we stopped by the cemetery in Royal to visit Grandpa Bud. Kylie loves the horsey on his stone. We love you and miss you Grandpa!
