Our first started out in Spokane with a trip to visit Grammy & Papa. In Spokane the farms are very close together and FREE yup FREE people. We got to see pumpkins being shot out of cannons <br />(David enjoyed this the most) mini horses, corn mazes, bouncy house, goats and pumpkins. <br /><br />Jordan's preschool went to Spooner farms, we went to Jubilee Farms in Carnation and also the Maris farms - WHEW that is a lot <br /><br />Jubilee Farms we rode a horse drawn carriage and Jordan was extra excited because there were Clydesdale's pulling it. Ever since we went to the fair he has an obsession with them. They also had "Babe" the pig there as well. <br /><br />Maris Farms David took Jordan and a real Monster truck that they strap you into seats in the bed and take you for a ride. I thought for sure my little boy would cry and be terrified and I advised against it. He LOVED it. <br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgrY5U8jsET2c_nKO8yP5CMAnY9TMU05LzQez9GpqxseL15nUbd6NOE9abm_jaw6UaHBfuiNqcWEeFxo_9jYQsMO2lJ2s8PSE_nNoGvwXojMRY26UyDMJFBBpFhl0kEEMh_HJpgDLNcLLU5/s1600-h/Picture+082.jpg"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 200px; height: 150px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgrY5U8jsET2c_nKO8yP5CMAnY9TMU05LzQez9GpqxseL15nUbd6NOE9abm_jaw6UaHBfuiNqcWEeFxo_9jYQsMO2lJ2s8PSE_nNoGvwXojMRY26UyDMJFBBpFhl0kEEMh_HJpgDLNcLLU5/s200/Picture+082.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5400767232288311042" /></a><br />P<br /><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEh0LORZ6cEdWErkF1yf2Pvaar-TAbyKquKDn416grVOXv1t7kAGow1EGZjFESgzs30812ZtQC5mkpCh77zM7vtNqAwzNxBkaXP3LtmPUdJY87c4lPERADK3eVt7UPrWudu0ohQwjAHLGEnk/s1600-h/Picture+121.jpg"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 200px; height: 150px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEh0LORZ6cEdWErkF1yf2Pvaar-TAbyKquKDn416grVOXv1t7kAGow1EGZjFESgzs30812ZtQC5mkpCh77zM7vtNqAwzNxBkaXP3LtmPUdJY87c4lPERADK3eVt7UPrWudu0ohQwjAHLGEnk/s200/Picture+121.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5400769122060802338" /></a>Newman Newshttp://www.blogger.com/profile/16449290128619883788noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3227952385601588490.post-47891154313796719832009-11-03T09:41:00.000-08:002009-11-03T09:43:42.110-08:00Happy Halloween<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjFmKZY1Bfd1tS6YNf7DXnKDdZSANqUozaxNy63YTePcEi9MVdmvqoKlBf7NOeg0UPUIK8t-ZzGZXRHRn0AfQFcm1sJ4rIjM-k1ZexkI-QLHx33Nw5HvTcEvjCBVw6HfXwnJw7L94FakY-F/s1600-h/Brooke+Jordan+Bradley+David.JPG"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 200px; height: 150px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjFmKZY1Bfd1tS6YNf7DXnKDdZSANqUozaxNy63YTePcEi9MVdmvqoKlBf7NOeg0UPUIK8t-ZzGZXRHRn0AfQFcm1sJ4rIjM-k1ZexkI-QLHx33Nw5HvTcEvjCBVw6HfXwnJw7L94FakY-F/s200/Brooke+Jordan+Bradley+David.JPG" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5399934370157337858" /></a><br /><br />Happy HalloweenNewman Newshttp://www.blogger.com/profile/16449290128619883788noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3227952385601588490.post-29978961223751390542009-07-30T13:50:00.000-07:002009-07-30T14:02:22.033-07:00What's been happeningWell here it is 4 months since my last blog. Alright I had to get my groove with both the boys. Needless to say, I found it and was loving staying at home with both the kids. But I am now back in corporate America.<br /><br />Here are a few happenings <br /><br />1) I am back at work Mon- Thurs while Lacey is watching the boys <br /><br />2) Bradley is HUGE, 97% in Height 95% in weigh what a bear! <br /><br />3) Jordan is potty trained - yup at 2 1/2 fully trained, even at nighttime.<br /><br />4) We have renovated the yard- Let me back up David has ( I take care of the kids- me and yard work don't mix) we installed a dog run, rented a bobcat, removed some hedges, leveled the backyard and the front, installed new gravel, laid down new dirt ground some stumps and trimmed a huge tree. WHEW I am tried from writing all that. We still have to plant grass, but the yard is looking great<br /><br />5) David has remained busy and even has two booths at the home show daily and some great reviews on angieslist. Knock on wood, business is picking up. Could be that is does superb work as well. <br /><br />6) We started hiking, I joined a gym<br /><br />7)We are surviving the heat wave with our pool and our AC - Jealous **;) <br /><br />So I am back online and will be posting updates regularly . <br /><br />Here are some random photos. <br /><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgKJAt05WUcRnbL8cd4dDVvRAlgmjm5I8D0aq185d4J6rMDvc1HSi_qX9vVDSdCVY66edLGr-22BR-oiUm7VVTRKsQVVaFbfdiOL3wqn7ixY8BZmZNLOjEWUAPG4_m6ak6jqnbddMnB-nlV/s1600-h/Picture+016.jpg"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 150px; height: 200px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgKJAt05WUcRnbL8cd4dDVvRAlgmjm5I8D0aq185d4J6rMDvc1HSi_qX9vVDSdCVY66edLGr-22BR-oiUm7VVTRKsQVVaFbfdiOL3wqn7ixY8BZmZNLOjEWUAPG4_m6ak6jqnbddMnB-nlV/s200/Picture+016.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5364360818050775778" /></a><br /><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjCcxAiVqSyCmOOw1Ac-WUFWmSu4oF8Ex8ho42g33WlCuBj1RY6jeZDpT0ePWvGy6qYI2Qbc3qHF48bZ1CCfojSKvWQYNJ0BRTDKrEn-0SnP2J3TgLiyNoLWrsHe4MyJIoQMx6GywCShKp1/s1600-h/Picture+009.jpg"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 150px; height: 200px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjCcxAiVqSyCmOOw1Ac-WUFWmSu4oF8Ex8ho42g33WlCuBj1RY6jeZDpT0ePWvGy6qYI2Qbc3qHF48bZ1CCfojSKvWQYNJ0BRTDKrEn-0SnP2J3TgLiyNoLWrsHe4MyJIoQMx6GywCShKp1/s200/Picture+009.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5364360508092547362" /></a><br /><br /><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgJQaB54kMJF3EFTC3ZCW7vk3oFePM3zdM5qZO6zyug9thGsxDueZGtU3Gffd9aB0ZHmbvwML4rGDe4HiuInbouibdS9kEOs9T9TwzXWl63C7a-TDJOQgjci2AsF19F9E_ki04x6DnWFEp3/s1600-h/Picture+029.jpg"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 150px; height: 200px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgJQaB54kMJF3EFTC3ZCW7vk3oFePM3zdM5qZO6zyug9thGsxDueZGtU3Gffd9aB0ZHmbvwML4rGDe4HiuInbouibdS9kEOs9T9TwzXWl63C7a-TDJOQgjci2AsF19F9E_ki04x6DnWFEp3/s200/Picture+029.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5364361372590721682" /></a><br /><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEio7Ql_8v4uQoZo9dJOObLCWM1WXNXAqH1Faudo-DrB1RYDVFf0Rkqm8yeSbvQCIE3rfTLMOvUss0-pEamf3tbaDKBP215hFeSFF799-nAPsJcERafm7sWhJPZBHAtBthoj6IA1PnCu-cSF/s1600-h/Picture+025.jpg"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 200px; height: 150px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEio7Ql_8v4uQoZo9dJOObLCWM1WXNXAqH1Faudo-DrB1RYDVFf0Rkqm8yeSbvQCIE3rfTLMOvUss0-pEamf3tbaDKBP215hFeSFF799-nAPsJcERafm7sWhJPZBHAtBthoj6IA1PnCu-cSF/s200/Picture+025.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5364361254661701250" /></a><br /><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhzPSXPKqKNggLfDK0PWrOvW42RhfTUepA7_JvHU6Ua0FSsp-63yejN-s0zPxKNcPaIZHMXSgkmwtW6142qZtpDq1vS22yHg2LCwLKoOEC_ZGcWCbbLeCaElAhnxQlOCRk9p3kNJ5J9i2pi/s1600-h/Picture+012.jpg"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 200px; height: 150px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhzPSXPKqKNggLfDK0PWrOvW42RhfTUepA7_JvHU6Ua0FSsp-63yejN-s0zPxKNcPaIZHMXSgkmwtW6142qZtpDq1vS22yHg2LCwLKoOEC_ZGcWCbbLeCaElAhnxQlOCRk9p3kNJ5J9i2pi/s200/Picture+012.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5364361165533712290" /></a><br /><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhKiK9HWF9blvEogKKNKVx6nGj_VZMMBbRSYxOLkzqpgqn1NyVh4126Pe1WfFKjUzaPN6cgbooSgxKE81JMiEwxgPGwypB1CJ90HJdd2H_PCHtbVqWubv-_LDBrITHeJxQjAYx1EK6sG_sp/s1600-h/Picture+048.jpg"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 150px; height: 200px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhKiK9HWF9blvEogKKNKVx6nGj_VZMMBbRSYxOLkzqpgqn1NyVh4126Pe1WfFKjUzaPN6cgbooSgxKE81JMiEwxgPGwypB1CJ90HJdd2H_PCHtbVqWubv-_LDBrITHeJxQjAYx1EK6sG_sp/s200/Picture+048.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5364361046621463570" /></a>Newman Newshttp://www.blogger.com/profile/16449290128619883788noreply@blogger.com1tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3227952385601588490.post-28962715602198849492009-04-03T22:14:00.000-07:002009-04-03T22:27:17.928-07:00The Silver Fox turns 30David turned 30 on Thursday... Jordan and I spent the day making crafts for Daddy. I made steak and king crab legs, his favorite and we had a low key evening. <br /><br />I had bought David a remote control helicopter! Like a kid he couldnt wait to fly it, so he Jordan and his brother went outside in the pouring rain to fly it. Not the best use of judgement in the rain outdoors.

With it raining for weeks straight, the pickings have been slim. We found that KMPS was sponsoring a dollar per entry at the Aquarium. We jumped on this opportunity, it's normall $16.50 to get in. We didnt account for it being Spring Break though. <br />We arrived at 10 and quickly figurered out it was gonna be crowded. We knew we had to hit the tide pools, seals, sea otters and of course NEMO. Thankfully we did it all and managed to get out as the crowd grew longer and longer. We think hit the Old Spaghetti Factory and much to our suprise, every Tues they have 40% lunch. The three of us ate for $17.00! <br /><br />What a fun day!!!Newman Newshttp://www.blogger.com/profile/16449290128619883788noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3227952385601588490.post-29558185564617770022009-04-03T13:44:00.000-07:002009-04-03T13:47:39.883-07:00It snows in April<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjXxWttj2NneVPtQqcNXVbbBvEgT1y_5HLSwNtzgXFsI2NqKQplso88rC9e-OhrOGv7kLhCflUbwvQ-3EBO7GB-pXyvhQkbvlaQCN2xbY-pjBbjG_ZIsKQq4_BOFhnus1G80iOJQbbjLcL0/s1600-h/Picture+172.jpg"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 150px; height: 200px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjXxWttj2NneVPtQqcNXVbbBvEgT1y_5HLSwNtzgXFsI2NqKQplso88rC9e-OhrOGv7kLhCflUbwvQ-3EBO7GB-pXyvhQkbvlaQCN2xbY-pjBbjG_ZIsKQq4_BOFhnus1G80iOJQbbjLcL0/s200/Picture+172.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5320569573028167602" /></a><br />It snowed April 1st.

Not sure David was with his brother - Lord knows as they got older that wasn't the case, not sure if Renie was ever like that to me. <br /><br />But boy- Jordan is amazing with Bradley, he is helpful, loving and protective. We were at the play structure at Bellevue Square and a little girl came up to look at Bradley and Jordan ran over and said No! He has done it a few others times as well. <br /><br />Bradley continues to be a WONDERFUL baby, I mean really good, quite, no issues and SLEEPS. Makes me think why not have more if they are all this good - <br /><br />Now not saying it's easy having two this close, but as our routine strengthens, it's much more managable.<br /><br />Here are a few shots of the last week of the boys <br /><br /><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgGkyk7vWTAb2ivId4VQtdy-F4FUpO0-NzJ7mvhlgNENa68kUZ4e1UHrFAbYhdX5gEm_pW7ZtYgM_ID60q-rwFZLYRkfs4Jbai0VQDySfU-XrdicFKtCSWhveysuq7K_664YXLWBmykcla5/s1600-h/Picture+128.jpg"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 200px; height: 150px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgGkyk7vWTAb2ivId4VQtdy-F4FUpO0-NzJ7mvhlgNENa68kUZ4e1UHrFAbYhdX5gEm_pW7ZtYgM_ID60q-rwFZLYRkfs4Jbai0VQDySfU-XrdicFKtCSWhveysuq7K_664YXLWBmykcla5/s200/Picture+128.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5317978559088149938" /></a><br /><br /><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEh_jbAoeE7MR_2WJRaTmoCSWELCatd6EUNK1q39WM5xqRbTr9jAXSV64mIFRISfVKeVk3IL01zloJSpT_Ogh63yULkBBIQk5-ksehySo94-8dijqlXtb9ikBvVB4TWP5lDxpFVhcnykuZlp/s1600-h/Picture+127.jpg"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 200px; height: 150px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEh_jbAoeE7MR_2WJRaTmoCSWELCatd6EUNK1q39WM5xqRbTr9jAXSV64mIFRISfVKeVk3IL01zloJSpT_Ogh63yULkBBIQk5-ksehySo94-8dijqlXtb9ikBvVB4TWP5lDxpFVhcnykuZlp/s200/Picture+127.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5317978969923209762" /></a>Newman Newshttp://www.blogger.com/profile/16449290128619883788noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3227952385601588490.post-61841384964343415302009-03-27T14:05:00.000-07:002009-03-27T14:08:11.912-07:00The Floor is done<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjzkw37qSFSctx8uecZQNeHsg2a35WSGNomQoECIfDBLbBrb7RV5DHRkvvNUYN8EcldRdYvpw_EGoIsW7HOax0XkNYz2e8_wNa2kSbVBMxZG9F5MhcpQ10h1OU_iHnO0LzV3_9U7W5VGkxN/s1600-h/Picture+133.jpg"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 150px; height: 200px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjzkw37qSFSctx8uecZQNeHsg2a35WSGNomQoECIfDBLbBrb7RV5DHRkvvNUYN8EcldRdYvpw_EGoIsW7HOax0XkNYz2e8_wNa2kSbVBMxZG9F5MhcpQ10h1OU_iHnO0LzV3_9U7W5VGkxN/s200/Picture+133.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5317977330979432738" /></a><br />The floor is done, after a week of non-sense ( a newborn, a two year old and a construction zone) The floor is done. <br /><br />David is amazing and does impeccable work!!!

You would think I have enough on my mind, I am two weeks shy of my due date, still working full time, still a mom to an adventerous two year old, still a wife and what keeps me up you ask. <br />This silly blog...<br />I woke up realizing I havent captured any of the last two months exciting events to share with family and friends. Then I woke up thinking, well heck maybe no one really reads this, but that couldnt be. <br /><br />So as I tried to log into my account, it only took resetting the password about 5 times, because forgive me I have about 30 passwords floating in my mind at all times. Was it the cat's name, no the dog's name compbined with my birthday, no David's birthday, no his old dogs name... UHHHH enough already with the passwords. <br /><br />So in a nut shell... Christmas was great, in Jan Jordan turned two my mother another year older, in Feb my dad another year older,I had a baby shower our Nanny turns another year older, I turn another year older. <br /><br />And yes I am still pregnant... more to follow on that.Newman Newshttp://www.blogger.com/profile/16449290128619883788noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3227952385601588490.post-77887065282205990392008-12-10T09:51:00.001-08:002008-12-10T10:06:01.654-08:00Tis the SeasonWe handpicked a tree and put up all of our Christmas Decorations over this past weekend.

Let me first say that a few weeks back we found this in the a magazine and remarked what a great idea it was, too bad it wasn't that cute.<br /><br /><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjKN9BO_2XVV5qgg6PhezebgpkvjIWQgwXdivKonHgURGS7mtAB7pmKIQXYcn6l3s2wBNrM-VtDr327C7TrJbZIBNRF_EZOMQ9Evn3Tx38_Rn3_U-IA6P_ndrqBCt4ad78b_oK-r7o1_WJL/s1600-h/reindeer.jpg"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 200px; height: 200px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjKN9BO_2XVV5qgg6PhezebgpkvjIWQgwXdivKonHgURGS7mtAB7pmKIQXYcn6l3s2wBNrM-VtDr327C7TrJbZIBNRF_EZOMQ9Evn3Tx38_Rn3_U-IA6P_ndrqBCt4ad78b_oK-r7o1_WJL/s200/reindeer.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5278222203831288690" /></a><br /><br />Here is the description -Randy The Reindeer Watering System<br /><br /><em>The Reindeer Tree Watering System not only lets you know when your tree needs water, it helps you water with ease! Hang this fun reindeer ornament in your tree, attach his water tube down the trunk, and place the included water sensor in your tree stand (not included). When the water level gets low, his nose lights up. To refill, simply pour water into his open mouth until his nose light goes out. Enjoy a healthy tree without ever crawling underneath it.</em> <br /><br />Now I want you to know that as David is preparing to water the tree he keeps talking about this reindeer, and I am like yea ok well we dont have it. He then disappears into the garage only to emerge with part of a shower hose and a plastic bottle. <br />If you know David, you know where this is going... <br /><br />Here are the pictures to explain <br /><br /><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEg8KyG7iMGqozRZyZehHCteXJxLNsvPftY2oaEVeOTJgO-OKj8SQC7QoaCmTgzZwnmmKkjX5ZoYnR9MJGaaT1hIKRUNmczDG7lcmhL0I47KHswV91wX1teum0LrGxEdGkXOdyiARSubiByR/s1600-h/Picture+413.jpg"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 200px; height: 150px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEg8KyG7iMGqozRZyZehHCteXJxLNsvPftY2oaEVeOTJgO-OKj8SQC7QoaCmTgzZwnmmKkjX5ZoYnR9MJGaaT1hIKRUNmczDG7lcmhL0I47KHswV91wX1teum0LrGxEdGkXOdyiARSubiByR/s200/Picture+413.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5278223658033214018" /></a><br /><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjkomB5kWR4M1LIFPRazg04Oy8xO1EdR5Qd5qeMMoRb0C8XG0UiCmqZhe6imu59AC8WRoF8ChhzEK97qR-YnY16Ulw_ocxW5g8hK55OjU_p6aTab85ZRmym0kYJLZUpP1SE-XbQeX9gnVQl/s1600-h/Picture+412.jpg"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 200px; height: 150px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjkomB5kWR4M1LIFPRazg04Oy8xO1EdR5Qd5qeMMoRb0C8XG0UiCmqZhe6imu59AC8WRoF8ChhzEK97qR-YnY16Ulw_ocxW5g8hK55OjU_p6aTab85ZRmym0kYJLZUpP1SE-XbQeX9gnVQl/s200/Picture+412.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5278223651499184162" /></a><br /><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgHjc0unPb1F730dqMEs7NWigBQ9CUtmKWThsByQwOORV0XyzObWeFzGUMNVQoPYItm_Tzm8qioNVS8rMThjTkKdlrt0bp-IfLXnJCLHbr_NC4w5EKaS71PQOE4iO9a5SO38Wf1utUpmxxX/s1600-h/Picture+411.jpg"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 150px; height: 200px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgHjc0unPb1F730dqMEs7NWigBQ9CUtmKWThsByQwOORV0XyzObWeFzGUMNVQoPYItm_Tzm8qioNVS8rMThjTkKdlrt0bp-IfLXnJCLHbr_NC4w5EKaS71PQOE4iO9a5SO38Wf1utUpmxxX/s200/Picture+411.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5278223642716303506" /></a>Newman Newshttp://www.blogger.com/profile/16449290128619883788noreply@blogger.com1tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3227952385601588490.post-88459202083866372008-12-04T14:29:00.001-08:002008-12-04T14:56:49.275-08:00ThanksgivingThis year we headed down to Las Vegas to spend Thanksgiving with my dad. We were hoping to catch some nicer weather and relaxation. I ended up being sick with a 24 hour bug right before we left. The weather was great the first day, too bad I couldnt enjoy it sick in bed. <br /><br />Then next few days it rained in Vegas and was record breaking. Apparently we brought the rain to the desert. <br /><br />David's brother Mike came with us, and we were all able to take in a show- Penn & Teller, while Grandpa spent some quality time with Jordan. <br /><br />Thanksgiving was great and we had more than enough food, Prime Rib and Turkey... <br /><br />We came back with some money and got to enjoy some nice weather before we headed home. <br /><br /><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiCARQ6o3V2m0gucxaYH-b8Ai35YTmVbqQXUu1ZFICVasC5IF-JuX1Hsfp2it1UWxjFD9mtt_R077-9iJ5WwsP4lCVW2XEp6rcpUCLOCTDRnzO6DnmjXx2yIxtdmgf8FipisMniw8ijjJkA/s1600-h/Picture+403.jpg"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 150px; height: 200px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiCARQ6o3V2m0gucxaYH-b8Ai35YTmVbqQXUu1ZFICVasC5IF-JuX1Hsfp2it1UWxjFD9mtt_R077-9iJ5WwsP4lCVW2XEp6rcpUCLOCTDRnzO6DnmjXx2yIxtdmgf8FipisMniw8ijjJkA/s200/Picture+403.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5276071687437002530" /></a><br /><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhOjrjpbjgpKynVoin0g2Q6HAe3dTuW08xGwNWAcSpjKbrmygInqMUZm2pDhSX7K41D5uL-h8lhiwVbhk1J6rKwI2Mz6viSvoDy8iozRnR5b-ENN7JtELOlVfjUtbH2nKFW21zjaBxbsTfy/s1600-h/Picture+400.jpg"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 200px; height: 150px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhOjrjpbjgpKynVoin0g2Q6HAe3dTuW08xGwNWAcSpjKbrmygInqMUZm2pDhSX7K41D5uL-h8lhiwVbhk1J6rKwI2Mz6viSvoDy8iozRnR5b-ENN7JtELOlVfjUtbH2nKFW21zjaBxbsTfy/s200/Picture+400.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5276072559978830802" /></a>Newman Newshttp://www.blogger.com/profile/16449290128619883788noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3227952385601588490.post-19812080386677960322008-12-02T13:49:00.001-08:002008-12-02T14:02:00.215-08:00UpdatesIt's been months since I wrote an update as to what we have been up to.

Just too much fun stuff going on. The fair, vacations, the beach - you name it we did it. <br />Between the sleeping and the morning sickness and an active toddler I just havent felt up to it. <br /><br />Oh in case your one of the few who hadn't heard... We are having another baby. Due March 9th. That puts me at week 16 today. Finally have things calmed down. I am not running to the toilet ( which is exceptionally clean these days ) everytime I get a whiff of food or a dirty diaper. God Bless my wonderful husband, who has had no problem getting woken up by me yelling, HURRY I am getting sick!!! And has no issue going out at night to pick me up a snickers bar. <br /><br />I guess you tend to forget all the joys of pregnany- I have noticed the feet swelling and all those cute cute cute shoes in my closet that have to sit neglected for another 9 months before they get any good use outta them. I mean let's face it, there is no way a maternity outfit looks that cute, especially with granny shoes. <br /><br />Here are a few pictures of our summer adventures...<br /><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiQSYfC4O3x1a5zuCtPaZ4fWXaMubUvMUEdp5hk4kW0FofRlj2nxt-FygbaQXzL6jyYEosqS0WKG_N0Dl5mkjxeSg7I421GPLDbaSifAe1aZy7-c6cu6Wu0S5e1l8gW-AEC_dAGSYHZof9N/s1600-h/Picture+575.jpg"><img style="display:block;

It is a mini soccer league for 18 month-2year olds. We kick the ball, have relays & sing songs. He loves it and even though class is only 40 mins long by about 20 he is laying on the field exhausted. Alexander who is Jordan's friend ( they are only like 24days apart) also takes part in SKOT.Newman Newshttp://www.blogger.com/profile/16449290128619883788noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3227952385601588490.post-45648174929799248202008-07-28T10:45:00.000-07:002008-07-28T10:49:25.731-07:00A Mickey Mouse Tat<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhR3S5MYuRTj2-48Le0e18-JhlwbagZm6knwVpi8fXmO16I73x2UswsRP-byPs_3XluKDYWECrUlKHy8HP25uzwQuieklqVxcEdFLkTdWGNCWOI2kLGNishVIBAXhlmHE1fxrkkFWO3gd0M/s1600-h/Picture+590.jpg"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhR3S5MYuRTj2-48Le0e18-JhlwbagZm6knwVpi8fXmO16I73x2UswsRP-byPs_3XluKDYWECrUlKHy8HP25uzwQuieklqVxcEdFLkTdWGNCWOI2kLGNishVIBAXhlmHE1fxrkkFWO3gd0M/s200/Picture+590.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5228123153567161250" /></a><br />Just had to share, we took Jordan to Renton River Days this weekend.

And no it's not golden color, or housebroken or trained or obedient. But she sure is CUTE!<br /><br /><br />I rationalize it by saying Mikie needs a friend and Jordan needs a dog to grow up with and maybe David will lay off the 100 reasons we need a dog. <br /><br />Ok so David claims it’s my anniversary gift. We picked her up Monday night ( romantic anniversary huh ) We originally had a plan, golden lab, golden lab. Well the only golden left was a male and guess what he was the wild one out of the litter, already bitting and bounding and not sitting still. In my mind I said no way in hell. <br />And there she was, black and a little fluffy and the calmest one of the litter. <br /><br />She is an 8 week old black lab. So far she is pretty good, a little hard adjusting at night, but hasn’t destroyed anything and whines to go outside and potty. So all in all she is like 1/2 potty trained, follows the other dog around and loves us. <br /><br />The explanation of her name - Hank Hill's dog from the animated television series King of the Hill. She is named after the wife of President (and Texan) Lyndon Johnson, Lady Bird Johnson. <br /><br />Again I must be crazy because puppies are a lot of work. <br /><br /><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgaxOPSsgqRtzEtaTgSlYNT00uAz-hN4MJVC3i6g-smjRtRXl-bqdcD1xHOzvXF-U8DRso-e3ID1IVhO5vMPVjXDwRSK_uuTG65mim4KCjoy3XxhfBlFkcj1El7T26oPcjV77bxwR8WLs3o/s1600-h/Picture+490.jpg"><img style="float:left; margin:0 10px 10px 0;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgaxOPSsgqRtzEtaTgSlYNT00uAz-hN4MJVC3i6g-smjRtRXl-bqdcD1xHOzvXF-U8DRso-e3ID1IVhO5vMPVjXDwRSK_uuTG65mim4KCjoy3XxhfBlFkcj1El7T26oPcjV77bxwR8WLs3o/s200/Picture+490.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5208089188902597682" /></a><br /><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEj4hFpMwJIexx4AyQ2hZK4ylUZ2i92NxA-WKkR9VdhJQ90nzfKPG_FD6rFD8ySp0blRarMoSP5srGfggkc-AbcRgx7CfTmSAs23FN0G6zRDaMnW2NkzySoQ52MOi9oSow2T4YR32F5_NNWY/s1600-h/Picture+500.jpg"><img style="float:left; margin:0 10px 10px 0;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEj4hFpMwJIexx4AyQ2hZK4ylUZ2i92NxA-WKkR9VdhJQ90nzfKPG_FD6rFD8ySp0blRarMoSP5srGfggkc-AbcRgx7CfTmSAs23FN0G6zRDaMnW2NkzySoQ52MOi9oSow2T4YR32F5_NNWY/s200/Picture+500.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5208089030212683538" /></a>Newman Newshttp://www.blogger.com/profile/16449290128619883788noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3227952385601588490.post-21766559538810483672008-06-04T10:53:00.000-07:002008-06-04T11:22:37.264-07:00A puppy are you crazy??We have been going back and forth for months now since Sasha's passing about getting a puppy or not. It is great being a one dog family. So easy, ah but my husbnad the child at heart, loves puppies and not like normal people - he is on the border of a weird obsession with puppies. For weeks we have gone round and round, to get a puppy or not and what breed. I had my big ideas and turns out not so good with kids, David was brought up loving sheps ( German Shepards for those of you who dont know the lingo) I hate their shedding, frankly I am happy with getting a hairless dog. Seeing as they are ugly - I wanted a labradoodle- 1/2 lab 1/2 poodle. No shedding family dog who is super smart- I have been told nothing named Doodle. Forgive me if my husband's man hood is compromised with a dog breed named doodle.<br /><br />We have finally settled- Lab or Golden Retriever- an all american dog. Next is finding that special dog. <br />I would like a golden lab. People they are not that easy to find - unless you want to shell out $800. I dont care what bloodlines it has, or that its great granddog dad was best in show. We want a golden dog for a decent price, preferably one who is housebroken, trained, obident and perfect. Oh and looks like a cuddly puppy. <br /><br />But really who are we kidding. So the search remains on...Newman Newshttp://www.blogger.com/profile/16449290128619883788noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3227952385601588490.post-26782788600125139202008-06-04T10:45:00.000-07:002008-06-04T10:53:25.045-07:007 years and all you get is wool?Monday June 2nd, David and I celebrated 7 years of wedding bliss. So check out what your suppose to give. <br /><br />7th Anniversary Gifts<br /><br />Traditional Gift = Wool / Copper- ok like a sweater or a penny. Or some copper pipe since on the black market they are selling it for a pretty penny<br /><br />Modern Alternative = Desk Sets - come on really, I must say I think we would both be disappointed if we got the other one this.<br /><br />7th Anniversary Flower = Jack-in-the-Pulpit- never heard of it. <a href="http://s70.photobucket.com/albums/i98/cy1229/Flowers/?action=view¤t=a518.jpg" target="_blank"><img src="http://i70.photobucket.com/albums/i98/cy1229/Flowers/a518.jpg" border="0" alt="Jack in Pulpit"></a><br /><br />Color = Off White<br /><br />Gemstone = Onyx / Yellow Sapphire<br /><br />I wonder who comes up with this stuff.
