End of dance '09 June

2009 was the first year that boths girls were in dance. This was the picture of them on recital day. Look at my cute little ballerinas:)

Beach trip '09

We took a week long beach trip to the Oregon Coast in April of '09. We spent half the time in Seaside and half the time in Lincoln City, two of our favorite cities. Here are the pictures from that trip.

Cape Disappointment Lighthouse, there are two this is one of them.

At the Columbia Maritime Museum

Jenna's turn...

The Goonies!!!!

Data's house

Astor Column, with Andrew and the girls at the very bottom. It was closed for renovations at the time so we didn't get to go up:(

Andrew and Madison in front of Haystack rock in Cannon Beach.

Madison is a dancing queen going across the bridge at the Tillmook Forestry center:)

The girls and I in front of the octopus tree.

Madison in front of a real Japaneese Spider Crab, this is a jouvenile, the adults are much larger.

That has to be one of the best trips we have taken as a family. As the girls get older the trips seem to get easier to go on. Will be doing this one again:-)

Starting where I left off...

So every year some friends and I go on a "mom's retreat". We rent a house close by and stay for the weekend. These pictures are from '09, '10 will come soon;)

This is what we do...

Dress up...


Taste wine...

Craft...

and Eat...

These trips are always so much fun, we never know what to expect other then a good time with good friends.

Long time no post?

Sorry to those that have been "following" my blog. It hasn't been much of a blog for a long time. But I hope that will change from now on, even if I don't have much interesting to say I will try to do more posts so that family and friends can keep up with me and my family.

More to come...
