Amie's turns 2!

Happy Birthday dear Amie!

Amie with brother and sisters that were present....we missed Tyler, Ana, and Trav! Travis did call in from Kuwait to sing with us over the phone!

Nathan...reached the cake once, but something is preventing me from getting MORE!

Oh the memories...of having help opening presents! Amie is behind the box.

Into this one on her own!



Let the cake eating begin!


The doll was ordered and didn't arrive for her birthday. Amie seems to have taken to it quite well. She promptly kissed on it and read it a book!

6 New Entries! Sorry I'm behind!

It's been pretty quiet and slow on the blog...but not around the house!

Train Mountain

Annual church picnic at Train Mountain. After lunch, they run 3-4 trains for rides around the property.

Paul and Paul...flipping burgers.

William liked his seat, right behind the engineer!

Sophie and Brenna check out the 3 dachshunds riding in this car.

The Cautious!

...and the UN-cautious!

Amie climbed this wall dozens of times.

Keeping up with the big kids!

You gotta be ready for Amie 'cause she just "goes"! whether you're ready or not!

Pursed lips...swinging takes concentration!

Jordan, with a trail of girls on the line.

Tied up!

Nathan...quite a happy guy!

Ben and Jordan...

Synchronized swinging! As soon as I said that, they got "out" of synch.

ALL the kids are tuckered out! I think Jordan plays as hard as the little ones!

Klamath County Fair

Daddy reassures Sophie!

Look Mom, I'm touching it!

Amie gives it the what for talk!

Ben and Andy, and 2 apprehensive little girls.



Click on pic. for close-up. I'm not sure who's more scared, Amie or the horse!

Sophie's favorite part of the fair is riding the ponies!

Amie is content to pet....

...and watch from the sidelines!

Library, then Lunch

French toast in the tub

Sometimes, lack of time warrants combining some activities, like....getting around, bath time and breakfast. They love it!
