That's a wrap folks. Thank you very much.

I'm Takin' a Looksee at YOU
Hi. Like my jammies? I knew you would. They are the same color as my eyes. See?
Squeezing Out the Last Bits
Here Jorja and I are just enjoying the very last moments of an early fall warm spell. I have stopped eating sand, but need to remember not to let it jump out of my hands. I really have to remember that. Sheesh.
Show-N-Tell
I got to bring aaallll my special girls (l to r: Princesses Aurora, Ariel,Cinderella, Belle and Snow White) to show off to my friends at school. They were kind of nervous, but I got them through. I think they were happy to climb back into their purple purse and relax.
Welcome Fall!
A lovely way to welcome autumn to the Northwest. It was a tough decision! They were all worthy of coming home with us.

The Land of Disney 2008
We did it! We took our peeps to the Land. We had a lot of fun and the kids had a blast.
A few things we learned along the way:
1) Jorja and Glory can ride the Matterhorn. They had "mixed" feelings about it, and we are proud of them for being so brave and going for it.
2) Gigi and Vivs were the best behaved of any of the kids (or adults for that matter). Thanks Trev for pushing me on that. Wouldn't have been the same without them. :)
3) The operators of the Jungle Cruise ride have a few loose screws. They must!
4) See the Main Street Parade next time. It looked to be a lot better than we thought.
5) The Pirates on the Pirates of the Caribbean ride are real. They have to be. How do they do it?
6) We are all anti-Miley Cyrus since we were forced to share our Disney experience with several thousand of her loyal lemmings. Happy Sweet 16 Miley..NOT! We made the best of it, but poor us!
7) We are going back and doing it all again next year! Sans Miley OF COURSE!
A Family Tradition
We just had to take a pic of us girls in front of the white rabbit's house with our big girls.
I Just Like You Guys
This is my Uncle Drew and my Auntie Heady. I couldn't take my baby blues off of him! Thanks for the big pushes Auntie Heady. As you all know I love catching big air. Wanna take me on your next snowboarding trip you two?
Come ON!!!!!!
I have always hated this. You know that. I know that. Elmo knows that. So why? W-H-Y in the he** do you make me do it! Seriously.
JAMMIES!
As fate would have it, I bought these jammies for the big girls and Jays bought the same for the little girls. Fortuitous indeed!
February 2009 is Coming Right Quick...
and a baby b-o-y (a la Uncle Adam and Auntie Birdie) will be entering our world! We will be OK girls. We. Will. Be. OK!
Us Gals With Jay-Jay and Jan-Jan
Jan-Jan wanted some pics of all of us, but some of us (who shall remain nameless) had other ideas. We didn't make it easy on everyone, but we are glad we got these.
Family of Four
Trying to capture that "perfect" family moment on film, and I think we were successful.

Belive it or Not....I'm Walkin' On Air
I like it best when my daddy pushes me. My mom is like all "ooo we can't go too high. We have to be careful." Evs mom....evs..... Daddy knows how to roll. Oooo..no one tell her I said that. She will probably find out anyway. That lady knows everything.
Earnin' My Keep? What?
Help! I have been put to actual work around here and for what!!!?? Maybe a paltry scoop of ice cream or a pitiful lollipop. Isn't there some branch of the ACLU that could look into this?

Three Months to Three Years
I have known all these kids since we were about three months old. We have been through a lot of learning and growing together. Say, did we actually just sit still for the parent paparazzi? I can't believe it. We have to change up our game. Keep them on their toes. It's our modus operandi (m.o.) for sure!
Our Rig a Jig Jig
It is propelled by 100% naturally organic energy and totally independent from foreign oil sources. It's Seattle. It's how we roll.
A Leg Up
I started school the other day, just like my sis. Maybe while no one's looking I can climb up here and have a looksee around this place. There are lots of people that don't know me, but that will soon change. As Rizzo said "I'm going to rule the school".
I Know the Drill
It's my first day of school peeps and I am ready to rumble. This is my third year at my school so I know le ropes quite well.

All of Us at Yosemite's Glacier Point
Hey guys, we had such a great time with you. We loved showing you California. The food, weather and company couldn't have been better. Thanks again for taking us with you.
The Incredible Shrinking Women
We had to get a running start to get up here. This chair is in the lobby of the Clift Hotel in San Francisco. You know you would do the same if you had the chance. And that's the way it is....pppppplllllllhhhhh!!!

Doing What We Need To Do.
Since Seattle is way over the top about conservation and recycling we thought we would do our part to fit in. Think of the wearing down of swing rubber that was prevented by doubling up our swinging efforts. That should be good for a few hundred carbon credits at least. Phew! We feel better now. Guilt of living appeased.
Trois-Drei-Tres-Three!
We meant to post this one last month, but I am still three so it doesn't really matter. Hey my Texas Emma, do you like my princess nightgown? We thought of you when we got it. Princesses forever!
Four Gals Hittin' the Town
Thanks for such a great trip! See you gals in October! I love you! Jia, you better be showing by then! Let's get the show on the road! xoxox
The Price I Pay.
Pacifiers were never my thing. My ring finger is. So now I have a huge blister. It got so totally gross. My Doc had to drain it and put this bandage on my hand. I am a little proud of it. So, I have now switched to my pointer finger. Same hand by the way. La dee da..hum dee dum. Take that people. I got nine other digits waitin' in line. Try to stop me!

Something Mommy Just Doesn't Get
Mommy, let me tell you something, sometimes you tell Jorja to leave me be, but what you don't know is I love any attention from her I can get. The more the better. She is just the coolest sis.
Meet Eric.
We found him roaming the streets of Seattle and decided to keep him! I kid. I kid. Eric is a domesticated rat, and has never lived a day of his life on the skids. Those in the know...know rats are kick a** pets. To meet him is to like him.

T-H-R-E-E
Oooooo weeeeee peeps...I'm three. That means the same as holding up 3 fingers (for my non spelling more visually inclined cohorts).

Sit. Adjust. Pray. Attack.
Tiiimmmeeee ttoooooo EAT! It's about to get ugly up in here! Stand back if you don't want to get messy.
Remember These?
OK, so when is the last time any of you over 10 have actually thrown yourself down a "slip-n-slide? Been a few years? Next chance you get...don't do it! It is a talent reserved for the super young. The grass and belly burn....OY!
It's Not a San Diego Beach but...
I like it right fine. Wading pools in Seattle come on in full force and we love hanging out in them from time to time.
The Ups and Downs of Growing...Up
One of the downs, but I did ssssoooo great. You would all be proud of me. I got X-rays, a cleanin' a flossin' and a polishin'.

Happy USA is #1 Day!
Here we be in our Fourth of July finery. We hung out allllll day on our family's farm, and celebrated our special and wonderful country. Special thanks to our Uncle Trent (CAPT USMC), CAPT Stuart Glenn (USMC), and the countless others who put their lives on the line to keep us safe, free, and able to think and say whatever what we darn well please.
