Home With A Few Visitors

We headed home from the hospital on Saturday.  We settled in and then my brother Marc, SIL Tracie, Olivia, Emma, Marcus, Grami, and Poppi came for a short visit.  They also brought lunch :)



Uncle Marc and  Emma with Baylor.  Uncle Marc and Baylor had matching tans!

Marcus even got in the action holding Baylor.

Olivia was so good with Baylor!

Auntie Tracie finally got a turn, I think she had to fight off the pack :)

Olivia got in some one on one time. 

Baylor and Grami had a little talk before they headed back to the East side.  Thanks for the visit and yummy lunch!  We have been eating the leftovers all week!

Ocean Shores

Before I can post pictures of our recent trip to Lake Chelan.  I thought it would be a good idea to post pictures from our trip to Ocean Shores for clam digging!

Elle loved playing in the sand!

Crafting back at the caboose!

  

Cleaning of the clams was the boys job :)

See it really was a caboose we stayed in!

Thank you Mom and Daddy-o for taking us along on your anniversary trip!  Here they are posing in from of the hotel they stayed in on their honeymoon :)

Lordy, Lordy, looks who forty!

We headed over to Spokane for my brother's 40th birthday party!  I have been terrible lately remembering to take pictures, not sure if it is because I am running after Miss busy body or because I really want a new camera :)  So I had to steal a few pictures for this blog from others!!

My sister-in-law Tracie, Marc with their children Olivia in the front, Marcus, and Emma (with her dolly)  Ceci and Sophie had a great time playing with their cousins!



On Friday night Poppi, Raymond, Marc, Colby, and Wes deep fried!  Turkey, sweet potato fries, and french fries.  Seriously they were looking around to see what else could be spiced up in the fryer!  Dang, I have to say anything fried is AWESOME!!

Poppi carrying the turkey in to be carved! 

August 14th is also my sister Tracy's birthday but she only turned 36!  Yes, same day but 4 years apart.  So to recount:  Marc- brother who turned 40 married to Tracie, Tracy- sister who turned 36 born on the same day as brother.  Crazy easy to remember names and birthday!! I do feel a little left out not being born on August 14th but I usually got a present on their birthday when I was younger as everyone felt bad for me :) hee hee, probably what added to my quirkiness that everyday was a great day to celebrate my birthday until I was 26 or so!

Enjoying watching the boys work!

Actual party pic stolen from Tracie's blog.  Thank you Tracie :)  We had a wonderful trip to Spokane and can't wait to go back next month for some Eagle football!!
