Ah Oregon

March 22, 2012.

The daffodils are just past their prime,



The cherry trees are starting to bloom,



And the Easter decorations are up.







Spring has sprung!

Precious Finn Turns 2

The birthday boy testing out a party favor

Birthday loot



Today, our Finn turned 2. Where did the time go? He is growing into a fearless risk taker, a generous hug giver and an adorable ham. This boy is not intimidated by a challenge or a crowd. He's a big laugher and keeps us all entertained with his Joie de vivre.
We celebrated his birthday yesterday with 30 of his closest friends and family. Christi Kurtz took all the good pictures but here are a few of mine. You'll soon be able to enjoy Christi's photos on Jana's blog so check back.

Northwest Kids Club

What a great place to take a quick rest.



Chillin' under the slide



Porter lovin' the bounce house



We love Thomas The Tank Engine



"I'm not dizzy"



Maggie wants to keep up with the boys



Porter on the big boy slide



Finn testing out the "baby" structure



When it's cold cold cold outside, and you can't stand being inside for 1 more minute, what do you do? This Nammie loads up the 3 g-kids and heads out to Northwest Kids Club in South Salem. It's not completely relaxing for me cause the kids still need a little supervision..."wait till the person in front of you is off the slide, don't take the truck away from the little girl who was playing with it, no climbing UP the slide, don't run over people when you're riding the big wheel." But it's all worth it when you watch the kids having so much fun. They ran and jumped and slid and rode and pretended and created and laughed. Is there a better way to spend a rainy winter morning? I DON'T THINK SO!
