Blueberry Fields

Annamarie emptied out the berries to put the box on her head.  Typical Kid already!

Gigi leads the way

 

We found a nest in one of the berry bushes.  Amazing.  You can tell how tiny they were in comparison to the blueberries.





Carter is always up to something.

 A Night in Seattle

visiting a lonely Aunt Janna (Zan's in England)



Anna discovered why her brothers love throwing rocks.  Aunt Janna had to keep piling them in front of her to toss.  The best was her proud chuckle after every throw.

Aunt Janna took us up to the house they just bought on the Sound.  We couldn't go in... but enjoyed the view.  Wow.  Very happy and excited for you guys!



That night Janna and I walked in to see the boys sleeping like so.  We separated and walked back in to find....

still touching.  Remind me of when they were infants and shared a crib.  All swaddled they got a hand free to reach out to the other.



The boys were AMAZED by the market.  All the fish- oh my.  Notice behind them the one being thrown.  Probably not a good idea to show them but we made it through with little damage down.



Then came "the shark" oh my.  People gathered around to watch these two- they kept going up to pet it and the fisherman behind the counter pulled a string to make it move.  I even screamed the first time.  a sight.




Off to the Aquarium!

 Gigi's with Cousins

I don't know why but it's "Gigi's House" and "Popi's Boat"

Lani, Anna, Carter, Holden, Camden & Tyler

Gigi pushing Carter on the swing- they love it cause she pushes HIGH!

They all took turns on the swing.  Here are the other three as Gigi was pushing Tyler.  They cheered her on screaming and dancing yelling "Go Tyler" over and over again.  They enjoy each other too much.

This ends in a big dogpile of course

 And then there's Anna 

She has turned into such a blankie girl.  it has to go everywhere with her.  I can barely sneak it to wash it.



Convinced she's a big girl- she now gets in the chair and colors with the boys.
