Purdy Cute!

Some of my favorite pictures

Halloween!

Our Little Pirate! I wasn't sure about this idea,

but it turned out SO DANG CUTE!!

More Visitors!

Adam's parents visited in the middle of October.

I'm sorry to say I only have a few pictures of their visit.

We all konked out watching TV late one night, and I woke up to this.

I love it. A great night of relaxing, cuddling up and watching a great movie together!

Grammy got Clara to fall asleep in her arms!

This NEVER happens for Mom and Dad. Grammy must have the magic touch!

October was full of visitors! I was so excited to have my grandma, my mom and my sister come out for a few days! What a great thing to have us girls together! This was the first big trip since my Mom's bout with cancer, Grandma is 84, and Kristen is prego! They all made a sacrifice to come visit- we hope it was well worth it!

We went on an Argosy cruise around Puget Sound.

We had to bundle up a bit, but it was fun!

We got to go through the Ballard Locks, and see the 'Sleepless in Seattle' house.

Great Grandma Bonnie and Kristen

Clara was such a trooper!

And, yes, an ipod does come in handy once in a while,

but after 2 hours on a boat in the wind, I thought she deserved it!

Mother and Daughter at Snoqualmie Falls!

And that daughter with her two daughters!

After a weekend of lunch next to the water, an Argosy cruise, a visit to Snoqualmie Falls, dinner at Dukes (my favorite) and lots of movies, laughing and fun, we were sad to see the fam go. We can't wait to see them all again at Christmas!

Thursday Crowd!

Getting together with good friends, and good food for some good TV!

Cousin Liam

In September, Clara's cousin came to visit. Oh, and he brought his mom and dad- April and Guillermo. We had so much fun with our family here! Little Liam is such a cutie- we love having these guys around!

We took the kids to a beach park in Bellevue.

April and I both gave up and stripped the kids down to their diapers.

They loved the water! They chased a duck, played in the sand and played on the toys!

Dinner at the Rainforest Cafe.

Here we are at Snoqualmie Falls.

Our visit with the Pitbladdos was so much fun! I was so down in the dumps the day they left. We wish we lived closer to eachother. We appreciate their friendship and can't wait until
the next visit!
