What beautiful colors 

Our little angel

Kaitlyn doesn't like the feel of grass on her feet but enjoys a beautiful, fall day in the Northwest 

Oh the many sounds of the outdoors 

What a handsome boy! 

Beautiful Mount Hood 

Show dada your muscles! 

Clayton loves to ride his bike - and boy does he ride fast. 

Eddie and his friend Brennan at their game. Eddie played several different positions and scored two touchdowns and got an interception. He was so excited!  

Kaitlyn is now 10 months old. She has two teeth on bottom and working on the second one on top. She says mama, dada, highhhhhh baby, she waves bye bye, and throws kisses when you say, "tira un besito". She loves to call her brother Eddie, and last night at 2am decided she needed to be with dada, and would not stop calling daaadaaaa until he picked her up. It was very cute, but boy was it hard getting up this morning. 

Fall is here

Oh, what beautiful colors of Fall. The crisp air early in the morning. The smells. Such smells as apples and hot chocolate with marshmallows, hot cup of coffee, fireplace. All these smells remind me of Fall. Kids cuddled in their beds. Rise and shine, its once again time for school. Colors, bright, warm colors changing right before our eyes. The sunrise. The colors in the sky. Oh what beautiful colors of Fall.

Fall, my favorite time of year! 

Aloha Everyone

Well, I am back from my trip with the girls to Maui. I had an amazing time. The weather was beautiful, the food was yummy, and the beach was a lot of fun. Katy and I went snorkeling in Lanai via boat and got to see dolphins and turtles swimming around us. The baby dolphins would jump out of the water, do spins and flips...it was so awesome! Katy even saw an octopus. Captain Steve's crew were great and they serve up quite a lunch! Once I develop my underwater film I'll post some more photos. Since Katy was afraid of sharks, Aimee and I played in the ocean. We had a blast. And we could not forget the many games of SkipBo that we played. What a blessing it was to spend time with Mom, Katy and Aimee. Looking forward to visiting with them at Christmas. Oh, and yes, Matthew survived the week without me, but was very happy to have me back home. Kaitlyn had him up every two hours. What's funny is that I get home and she sleeps through the night 3 nights in a row....heehee!

And we can't forget Bob whose waving hello. She's friendly and loves to greet everyone in the lobby. (Yep, she has a boy's name). 

Can everyone say "Aloha"! 

Mom with the girls. We all got a flower while waiting for our cab into town for dinner. 

Mom with Katy 

Here's Aimee with Mom enjoying dinner at a wonderful restaurant in Lahaina. 

These were flamingos that lived in the pond in the lobby of the hotel. 

Here we are at SafeCo Field in Seattle for the Mariners/Yankees game. 

Practice time at the game 

Say Cheese!
