New pictures of the kids.

Took the kids to get their pictures taken last week. They turned out pretty cute. Ken wouldn't smile in the pictures where he's by himself unless that little race car was in the picture, but that's ok, turned out cute anyway. Emma of coarse, loves to smile for the camera! Had the pictures done in Bellevue, so went to the Woodland Park Zoo afterwards. It was a good day. We were tired when we got home. Be sure to check out the new pictures on the side bar too.

Camping and Ken's 2nd birthday.

Had a fun week. Went camping at Lake Easton with my mom and the dogs. My mom got a new camp trailer and we had to try it out. It's a 23' Jayco Kiwi. Camping in style, a fridge, soft beds, stove; it was awesome! The state campground was nice. It had a nice beach, a playground and a good trail for bike riding.

Emma had a fun time at the playground and riding her bike. Ken had fun too, but he can't quite get the peddling down so he got pushed around on his tricycle.

He didn't mind. We went old school for smores and marshmallows; gotta do those over a campfire:)

The kids sure loved them, can't you tell.

She was really hoping to reel in a big one!

Cheesy Ken, loved his first camping trip.

Doggies had fun too. They got to walk around and sniff lots of new stuff and bark at chipmunks. We came home after 2 days and celebrated Ken's 2nd birthday. Emma and I made him an Elmo cake and he got a couple new toys.

Emma was trying really hard not to "help" him unwrap them. Then it was time for cake. After a few unsuccessful attempts at blowing out his candle, he let his sister do it for him.

And then with the candle safely blown out, he promptly leaned over and gave Elmo a big ol smooch on the mouth.

It was so funny!
