Hunter in the hay

We had nasty icky sickness run through all of us last weekend into this past week. We're all doing better, but it was some dark times involving lots of vomit and diarrhea.

For now, here is a cute Hunter picture! :)

Hunter's 1st Birfday Party!

Here are just a few pictures from her small birthday gathering tonight. It was a really fun night! She loved all her new books and toys. I was happy I brought the tri-pod too cuz we got a really cute shot of all of us.


She loved her Toodee doll!


I made these sugar-overloaded ladybug cupcakes! The ladybugs were Mountain Bars. :)

She had a little meltdown when we were blowing out the candle.

Daddy time!

Brandon and I are models!

A few months ago at work we were invited to get our photographs taken for a new insurance product line. Our company, Regence Blue Cross Blue Shield, is trying to save money so they had employees be the models. Here we are on one of the flyers...


And then we're also on the website too. Brandon made it to the front page, but you have to click on Oregon to see me too.

Too funny!

Hunter's 1 year old today!

Hunter got her first birthday card in the mail yesterday from Grandpa Hunter! It was too adorable, she carried it around for awhile. Thanks Dad!

Tonight we're just having a small gathering with Mark, Teri, Ted, Ruby and Erin. I'm making lady bug cupcakes, fingers crossed they turn out ok.

Cuteness to the max

Pool Party

Hunter had her first pool party on Saturday with her friend Lina. Holly and Tonia and I were just along for the ride.

Holly, sorry again for dunking you! I still feel bad. But Hunter would like to have you guys over again before the heat is gone. You can eat more of our garden veggies too!

Greg Oden - Portland Trailblazers!

I got to meet Greg Oden with Jaleana today. He's really tall!
It's cool that he does events like this for Mentor programs, very fun and inspirational for the kids. Thanks Oden! (I mean, cuz you know he's totally reading our blog now that I got my picture taken with him)

We got free bowling, pizza, soda's and arcade passes at Big Al's in Vancouver, Washington for four hours. It was a blast!


He bowled one frame for the guy we were bowling with, and I think he should really stick to basketball.

Oh and not that I'm competitive at all, but I was the winner of all the people in my lane. 119! Ha.

Jaleana and I had too much fun in the photobooth!

Hurrican Bean!

Hurricane Bean hit Hunter's room this morning...

Thankfully the clean up didn't take too long...
