I just had to get a picture of this! Grandpa was not going to be out done by Harker.

Harker's favorite part of visiting Aunt Betty and Uncle Ken's was the doggie door. He is lucky the dogs were willing to share as most of them were bigger than him!

Today our entire family joined the YM/YW for a combined activity day hike to Comet Falls in Ranier National Park--presumably on accounta' I'm the YM secretary. It was great to be back in the woods with Ray again as this was the first time she's come hiking with us this season. It was also Luke's first outing, and he performed like a champ, sleeping the entire time in his Snuggli.

I love this picture of Luke with big brother and the wild red-headed jungle woman--particularly the jungle woman. With her mother focused on the new arrival, Emma has temporarily reverted to the state of nature.

Mom had three birthday cakes! This is the little one that Harker and I enjoyed as she was full from all the cake at work. Katie was on the phone with her screaming the "Happy Birthday" Song.

Addyson is growing so fast. This is what she looks like as of this week.
