Pumpkin Farm






Nalia and Erika Visit




Erika and Nalia came into town this week and we were able to get the kids together. Born just about a year apart, they got along wonderfully. Nalia, as the elder, taught Will all kinds of new things (like swinging from the curtains and jumping on the bed) but she also inspired him to bury his body in the sand which I don't think he would have done otherwise.

100 for $1,000 Campaign

Will meeting the dalmation (Kim Radke!).


Our friends Silje, Pete, and Evan put together this incredible play park at their house as a fundraiser for the Seattle Midwifery School. Our fund initiative was to find 100 people who would be willing to do small private events to raise $1,000.

Japanese Garden



Will and I had so much fun exploring the many different bridges, paths and walkways of the Japanese Garden. The highlight for Will these days is usually the gravel. It was all I could do to entice him past the gravel at the entrance to explore the rest of the garden!

Pigs, Pigs and More Pigs




This is one of our favorite farms to visit which is a sanctuary for all kinds of pigs and other animals--young, old or disabled.

Train Birthday Party






Faith invited Will to her Train Birthday Party complete with a delicious raw blackberry pecan coconut crust tart!
