On our way...........
This slideshow is approx. 3 minutes -- it stops automatically at the end and if you roll your mouse over the bottom there are pause/forward/backward buttons if you need them.
So here we are on our way to Wisconsin (Wissonsin as Jack says). The majority of these photos are of our day at the Mall of America. There are a few photos toward the end of Jackson on the semi-truck ride at Nick Universe and I have to admit that I choked back a few tears thinking what a kick my Grandpa Harold (who was a truck driver for years) would have gotten out of watching the fun Jack had on that ride. So enjoy the slideshow of the first part of our trip!

Sun, Wind, and Kites
Before I update with all our vacation photos I just had to add these of our "Kite Flying Day" earlier in June.

Possibly my best so far...
I'm pretty convinced that this has to be the best picture I've taken of Jessalyn so far (humble much?) and I am half tempted to find some cute baby contests to enter it in.....????
Crazy Kid
So I tried a few times to get her to sit back in her swing and yet every time I turned around today she was zonked out on the tray...silly girl!
Father's Day
The flowers are beautiful in Rod & Jane's garden -- we enjoyed watching Jack water them & play in the pool. We had a great day celebrating with both our dad's and it was nice to come home and have a chance to show Jason how much we love him and think he is a pretty great dad! My kids are blessed to have him and I hope & pray that as the years and their relationships grow that they will learn just what a treasure it is to have a Godly, Loving, Caring, and Committed Dad -- I love you Jason and am thankful for the privilege of making you a father and the joy of raising babies with you.
Father's Day Weekend
We had a great Father's Day weekend. We started out Friday in Yakima for a fun reunion with some friends Jason hasn't seen for quite some time (unfortunately I failed to take any pictures). Saturday we spent time with my family and the pictures show how beautiful it is up there this time of year. On Sunday we spent a little time at Jason's parents before heading home to give Jason his Father's Day gifts and relax from our busy weekend.
The Pak-n-Play
Many times I turn around to find that my son has toppled his way into the pak-n-play with Jessa...he keeps asking me if they can sleep in there together...what a nut!
Sister loves her big brother
Jessalyn finds Jackson quite amusing and I often catch her looking adoringly at him and it warms my heart.
Jack can't wait until he can drive
My dad got a new big rig thing to plow snow and the kids were having a ball pretending to drive....
.....and bears Oh My....
Jason, Jackson, and I got an up close look at this bear right outside my parent's driveway .... we were about 30 feet away and he/she didn't seem to be bothered by us chatting and taking his/her picture. It was SO COOL!!!! Jessa startd to fuss a little and the bear started to climb the tree, but then Jess hushed and it came right back down and walked a few steps closer to our car. We went all the way to Alaska and didn't get to see bears -- isn't it great that we saw one here? :-)
Fashion Show
Little girl clothes are just so much fun!! Oh yeah...and I slipped in one of the kids in the double stroller getting ready for a walk.
Random pics
Jack was trying his bike helmet on sis one Sunday afternoon.. it goes well with the dress I thought... as did the Jr. Firefighter hats they got at the Farmer's Market on Saturday -- wouldn't Doug Mott be so proud!!!
Finished project
I realized I never posted a picture after we added the kids play toys--so here is the side view of our "less grass to mow & don't have to mow around play things project" :-)
