Soccer season 2008

Brandon and Damon are on the same team again this year with Stuart coaching. They are awesome this year and are surely heading to playoffs. Nathan is also doing really well this season. He scores at least one goal in almost every game! Then there is Gwen,...their number one supporter. She goes to every game even if it is raining! We love soccer season. I love watching the boys make progress in their game and skills on the field.

9 months old!

I can't believe 9 months with my little Gwenie has come and gone. She is so much fun to have. Little Gwen has showed the softer side of these boys here. They are sure going to be good daddy's one day.

Flying Gwen

There's nothing like daddy throwing me up in the air.

What is summer without a little hose play?

We frequently eat dinner out on our front porch to escape the heat in our house, you know, trying to save money not turning on the AC. We usually put Gwen in her exersaucer while we eat but this night she was particularly fussy. Dad always has a unique way of calming her down or keeping her entertained. He is always trying new things. This time I came out with my dinner to find my little Gwenie getting soaked in her clothes on the ground with the hose. At first, I was griping about her on the dirty ground, then about her being in her clothes, but after I saw how much fun she was having, I couldn't gripe anymore. This kid is fearless. She had a blast. It kept her busy with fun the whole dinner and then some.

The Great Park

The Great Park Balloon. We went up in this hot air balloon as a family. Yes, even Gwen! About 300ft in the air tethered to a cable. It normally goes just above 400ft but we had to stay lower because of the winds, fine by me. The best part about the whole thing was that it was FREE!

Swing Time!!!



Gwen is 7 1/2 months old now. She loves being outside. We go for walks almost everyday. One day we stopped by the park and put her in the baby swing and she loved it. I just can't get enough of that smile!

A Name and a Blessing



Gwen was given a name and a blessing on February 10th 2008 by her father. Here she is in her blessing gown. It was a great day. I never thought I could fit so many family in my little house. We were definately cozy.
