Some photos

There are some photos that I want to get on here, so that friends and family from afar can seem them. One is of Hannah with her new short haircut. For a long time now, she has wanted her hair cut, but I said she couldn't until after her ballet recital 'cause she had to have it long enough for a bun. She wanted short bangs, but I wouldn't let her get those. I do think it's cute and definitely easier to take care of--those tangles are a pain, and she never let me brush it. Another thing she has a lot less of are teeth. She's now lost 5 altogether. 2 on the bottom over a year ago that are already back in and then just in the past 3 weeks, another bottom one and the top two. I've still got to take a pic of her missing both of the top two.


This isn't a very good photo but the best I have right now showing Hannah's new hair a missing her first top tooth. She had just had her face painted at our family reunion a couple weekends ago.

About the only event we've had this summer other than moving and remodeling and the annual visit by Grandma Sharon was the family reunion in Washougal at Grandpa Mike and Grandma Carol's property. We camped in a tent (well the 2nd night, Owen and I slept in the house). The kids had tons of fun. There was a fishing derby in the pond. Hannah and Justin each caught 3 trout on the morning of the derby between 15-1/2 and 17-1/2 inches. Hannah also caught another fish or two the next morning. They now have their own poles, so I guess we need to go fishing again sometime. There was also a clown and face painting and my cousin's husband is a volunteer fireman at the local fire dept. and had some other firemen bring a truck up for the kids to climb on and spray the hose.


Waiting for a bite.

There was lots of time spent in the pool besides all the other activities.

The other big event this summer was Owen's first birthday. I can't believe he's a year already. I will post some pics from his birthday soon.
