August 2014

Heads up  - the formatting on this page is dreadful.  It's 11:30 pm and I'm supposed to be induced at 7 am tomorrow if I don't chicken out.  I just can't get it to look right but maybe it's just because I'm tired.  If I fix it, I'll remove this warning - If I'm too exhausted after I have a baby then you'll just have to deal with a funky page.

August was fun (but I guess it's not over yet) and it's not a dreaded month up here in Washington.  August is definitely the worst month of the year in Texas.  Anyways, Ashley headed back to Texas for 3 weeks to go to Pine Cove and visit her mom.  Autumn was not happy that Ashley was away for so long.

David took a Friday off so we could attend SeaFair.  SeaFair is a festival where you can watch the Blue Angels fly and watch hydroplane races.  Thankfully on the last day of one of the kids many camps, another parent told us that the best day to go is Friday because it's free and less crowded.  Sounds like the perfect situation for us.

with her friend Alex.

Levi was not tall enough for the boat so
he road the swings instead

These dorky littles hats from SeaFair are prized
possessions.  I keep trying to throw them out
but Autumn keeps realizing they're gone as soon
as I take them.

Picking blackberries
They're so common here that you just stop along the road and pick away

The Mariners were giving away free bobble heads.
I think she broke it about 5 minutes after
she removed it from the box.

We are headed to another baseball game!

Dinner before the game.
Levi ate two platefuls of food, a bowl of ice cream
and a piece of pie.  I have no idea how he's so skinny.

Autumn taking pictures of me during Levis'
baseball practice.  I also had closeups of every portion
of my body taken but I won't post those.

She thinks she's an awesome photographe

Levi is busy building me another garden.
He says boys do stuff like that.

Movie in the Park - It was Monsters University tonight.
Notice how everyone had a jacket and we also had blankets.
There are at least 3 different free movies each week just in Bellevue.
Summer here is glorious!

Autumn loved Camp Sambica!

Enjoying a popsicle while Autumn is at camp.

Autumn lost another tooth!
Right below the first gap.

Levi and Autumn are about to head off to the zoo with the Millers and SkyeBlu.

Levi asked me to take this picture of him being a strong boy.
He's lifting up the new rug I haven't unwrapped yet.
