Angela's Seattle Trip

On the boat

On the waterfront by our boat "The Argossy" whcich took us on a fun cruise through the harbor.

In front of the Space Needle

The tower of 700 guitars

Levitating on the sphere of Zen

Who doesn't want to snuggle with a huge stuffed beaver?

Ahhhhh, Seattle air smells so good! Like seaweed, and hobos.

The percussionist exhibit at the zoo. I hear they will bite your hand off if you stick it in their cage.

OooOOOooooooHHHhhhh. Our boat Captain is so dang cute........

Ok, so it's been since December since I've updated my blog. Big whoopie. The last 6 months have been a mix of stress, craziness, and joy and this will be a brief glimpse into all the mess. You may have to hit "older posts" several times to see all the new posts...and there are a few words that are underlined for some strange reason, so ignore that. I'm too tired to figure out why that is happening. Also, if you are reading this, and you are my sister, named Lisa, who also has a blog that is WAAAAYYYYY outdated....you know what to do. :)

I guess that's what happen when you give kids markers and tell them to "express themselves."

Popsicle sticks + duck tape + Littlest Pet Shop toys + water = hours of summer fun!

4th of July

You know when it's father's Day when you are given a hammock, a ton of your favorite candy, and the sweet and sexy tunes of Lady GAGA. Move over Madonna, my baby's got a new favorite!

Wonderful visit with mom

This day shall go down in history as the day Grandma Marilyn bought her first digital camera

In front of her childhood home. (Doesn't she look HOT!!)

Carnival in Springville....GET.....ME....OFF.....THIS......RIGHT......NOW.........

There was an empty exhibit at the museum so my kids, being how they are, decided to BE the exhibit. They sure got some strange looks. Especially when Evan would growl at people as they passed by.
