Visit with Kylee and Mia

It was so fun to go see Kylee and Mia. Mia is so Cute, and Kylee is so good with her.

Here are some pictures of Mia.

More to come later.

Camp trip - get together

I had so much fun at our camping get-together. And I got alot of pictures. unfortunately I didn't realize that I had the date stamp setting selected on my camera.We camped at Seaquest State Park, and our campsights were filled with beautiful old growth trees.

Randy and Pam, Jeff's family, Aunt Loa Jean and Uncle Alen, Mom, Steve and I were there.

We had fun around the campfire and started a new tradition of each telling about something that happened in the last year.

Then we went to see Mount St. Helens at the Johnston observitory.

Here are some pictures:

Aunt Loa Jean visits and pics of my appartment

Aunt Loa Jean Came to visit and it was wonderful. Mom took us out to lunch at a wonderful place and we had delicious pieces of pie.

Then Aunt Loa Jean came to visit my house. She is such a wonderful aunt. I hope she knows how special she is to me.

I have been having fun scrapbooking with my best friend Leta. We've been best friends since Becca was 4. (She just happened to move to Enumclaw two weeks before I got here.) We also do beading together. It's so awesome to be around her again. Here is a picture of her and I together.

Leta is truly a friend that knows the song of my heart, and she has reminded me of it many times when my memory has failed.

Enumclaw WA

I wish I had pictures to show you my new place, or my friends here. I'm living in Enumclaw, WA now. I love my appartment. It has a large living room window with a tree right outside, which gives me the fealing of living in a tree house. It's layout flows well and my furniture fits. I'm having fun decorating it. I've gotten lots of help from my old friend Leta, my new friend Sandy, and Mom. I'll show pictures when I get them.

Fun with Halloween

Kylee and Mia came over to trunk or treat at the church. Mia dressed up as a polar bear. Kylee made the polar bear hat, (with no pattern, just thought it up). Candy (Mia's guardian) painted her face with make-up. Mia loved the hat. She didn't even try to take it off once! When we took it off of her, she grabbed it up to make sure she got to keep it. She had a blast! She was just in wonder over all the dressed up kids and adults!

When we got home she had fun playing. She knows where her toy box is. She has the cutest expressions and it's fun to see her figuring things out.

Her favorite thing about Grandma's house, though, is that I let her get into the pots and pan cupboard. She is so amazed at this because she can't do this at home. She acts like the cupboard is a treasure chest. These pictures didn't turn out so well, but it shows how much she loves getting into it.

She is such a musical baby and dances to anything that makes noise. So as the clanked together rhythm with the pots, strainer, and lids. She danced and had a blast!

Is she cute, or what?

Kylee's Back & Mia's visit

Kylee moved back in and I am enjoying her company. She is so helpful and fun!

I got to have Mia here for a while. She just loved that she could go almost everywhere in my place, and she could slide on the linoleum, and play with my pots and pans. There is just more room for her to play here, and lots of empty boxes! Which, of course, was her favorite toy. She just walked around the house making happy noises. It is so fun to watch her!

Recent pictures of her are in the above slide show. I had to add the one of her holding a big stick. It is so much like her mom when she was younger, finding a big stick to play with!
