What We've Been Up To

On October 18th we hiked up Yellow Aster Butte near Mt. Baker with Simone and Nolan. It was Levi's first major hike!

On October 12th, Levi celebrated his first Canadian Thanksgiving with his second-cousins, Christian (not pictured here), Nolan and Ethan. Breast milk was his favorite entree. Maybe by American Thanksgiving he'll be eating mashed potatoes (mommy's favorite).

The family at Belle's 2nd birthday party.


Levi was baptized by Pastor Bert Hitchcock on September 21st. Ryan and I are prayerfully raising a child of the covenant. What a joy and what a responsibility!


Mmmm... rice cereal.


A snapshot of my life: this and working online and cleaning and cooking and doing laundry.



This frisbee is from Grandpa Warren. He supported our raising a frisbee fanatic.


On September 6th Levi met his Grandpa Darrel and Grandma Mandy for the first time! He loves the many walks and all the attention he gets from them.


It's easy to smile in the arms of Grandma Mandy.



Grandma Mandy has the touch.


Great Aunt Connie (a.k.a. GAC) and Grandma Becky at Lake Tapps at the end of August. The day after Grandpa Warren's funeral, we played hard, just as he would have wanted us to do. After all the tears, it felt good to laugh. We grieved through our laughter just as much as through our tears.


Levi just kickin' back with Uncie D-D.
