July Birthdays

Happy 43rd Birthday Mark!  You look amazingly handsome! 

A tad bit blurry, but I loved this photo!

Ashton picked this one out all by himself. Ashton loves this color! :)  It will look mighty fine on Daddy!

Hannah bought him a Mariners shirt! Go Mariners!

 Toby turns 5!  

Kim was quite creative with her Buffalo cake.  With the buffalo poop and all!  I was very proud of her!

Christy and Gordan

I have absolutely no idea which Auntie suggested to have a candle out his rump.  Absolutely none! But Toby thought it was a fantastic idea!

Starting with his backside! 

Autumn loved her piece of cake too!  So glad I snapped this photo because she will be in Germany for her 1st birthday. We will miss them all and the new little baby coming!

Toby was upset lately that mommy had a lot of photos of Alice up on the wall.  There was one photo especially that he wanted to look just like mommy and alice.  Kim posed and I snapped.  Toby is one happy camper now!

Happy Birthday Buddy!

Port Townsend Trip: Fort Worden and Hurricane Ridge

Fort Worden:

On the way to Fort Worden, we saw this house with a ton of Seagulls and Seagull poop.  The house looked so nice and new.  Felt bad for the people living there.

We rode our bikes through the Park and explored a bunch of Forts.   This is Ashton's new bike, but we just returned it today because on our trip it was making strange noises.  Mark said it was because it was a cheap Toys R Us bike. Thankfully Toys R Us returned it without any problems. We got our money pack and we went to the local bike store and bought a better quality bike. 

We had forgotten our flashlights but we really wanted to explore the dark places.  Ashton really had tons of fun!

It was a beautiful day on July 4th.  Port Townsend banned fireworks, so it was nice and quiet.

Hurricane Ridge:

New Bikes:

Ashton's new bike.  He went from riding a 12" bike 2 weeks ago to a 16" bike last week to a 20" bike now. We are amazed how easily he rides it. He loves it so much better! 

Hannah got a new bike this weekend too. Her old bike's gears and brakes werent working.  It looks like my size bike. I told her I am going to borrow it when she isn't riding it. ;) I am excited to try it.  

Ben's bike from last year. Still looks new! ;)  

 Happy 6 year Anniversary!
