Hanging Out with Cousins

The boys have been having lots of fun with their cousins lately, some from far away like David and Jaclyn and one from just upstairs Addison. No matter how far they come from the boys have a good time playing and getting into stuff.

Ben Meets a Fire Truck

So, one day we were at the Dragon Fort eating some Chinese food and as we walked out we saw a fire truck with some hungry fire fighters in it. Most of the guys hoped out to get their take out, but one of the firemen was left with the truck and so Ben when up and introduced himself. This guy was so nice and friendly, Ben ended getting a tour of the entire truck. I was so cool and sooooooo cute. Now you'll have to guess what Ben wants to be when he grows up?

My garden a Few Weeks ago

Everything is much bigger by now, but I haven't posted anything about my garden in a while and these are the pictures that I had on the computer. My tomatoes are so big now and the zucchinis too, but the beans and peas are almost done.

The peas and beans were sooooo good fresh right out of the garden as a snack and cooked up with dinner.

The boys and I have been enjoying the carrots too.

A Day at the North West Washington Fair

Just over a week ago we thought it would be a great idea to go the the fair, so after I worked on a Saturday we packed up the kids and took an adventure across the border. Unfortunately the I think it was the hottest day of the year and the boys were all melting with in 5mins. Quinlan was the worst though, he barely made it. He could didn't get out of the stroller and the only thing he wanted to do was maybe drink some water. I don't think he has ever been that hot in his entire life.

Ben fishing.

Ben got to ride a cow in the 4H barn.

I took a night Photography Class

I took a night photography class on Saturday and here are a few of the results without editing. I really had a good time even thought I'm very rusty with my camera.
