I'm Only 6 for a Moment

We celebrated a few weeks early, this little mister's 6th birthday. His grandparents make sure he lacks for nothing. They are very generous!

Ian Appleseed

My number two manchild had no fear when it came to climbing the ladder. All our hearts skipped a beat, but only one as he scurried up the ladder. And then we calmed down. He was very excited to pick apples and made sure he was the one doing all the picking. Thanks Ian and Granny Bug for giving us a harvest of green apples from your tree!







"I'm coming! I'll pick the apples!" 

Hundred Acre Woods

On our recent trip "home", we visited the Hundred Acre Woods popularly known as NW Trek. We saw moose, bison, deer, rams, sheep, goats, big cats, bears, coyotes, and foxes on our journey through the woods. We gorged on blackberries growing on the side of the trails and took maple leaves home bigger than our faces. All this adventure with warm sunshine shining on our faces and a humorous tour guide, Dale regaling us with tales of a misshapen tree due to a run in with a sasquatch. I do not believe our adventure in the Hundred Acre Woods could have been any better.



The top of Mt Rainer is in the distance.

Our day ended at a playground with this for a view.

Fell off the swing.
Added insult to injury, the swing hit him in the face when he stood up.

Too tired to walk anymore.
