Victoria's Birthday

A few pics from Victoria's 9th Birthday party! We had it at the bowling alley, with bumpers and all! Lots of kids & lots of fun!

Daddy Daughter Valentines Dance

The elementary school has been hosting a Valentines dance for years. This is the third year for Victoria and Clay! They enjoy their times together and what a wonderful memory!

The rest of the family is busy...Erika with dance, 4 days a week until the National competition in March...Isaac working on his next belt promotion in Taekwondo...not to mention keeping up with his homework...Clay and Bianca just taking one day at a time!

Snow in Seattle

We had an early Christmas break...about a week early due to the heavy snow and freezing temperatures! It was too fun playing in the snow! Alora & Katie, our dog, had a blast!!

Fall 2008

Starting from the top...the boys seem to have these wires hanging out of their ears frequently...both enjoy their MP3s. Isaac and Clay also went elk hunting in Eastern Washington...Erika with some friends and an instructor at her ballroom's Harvest Ball fundraiser. I got to chaperone Victoria's limo ride she received for all her sales in a fundraising event. And last but not least, Halloween with Victoria in her Peacock Princess outfit and Isaac and his friend, Alijah as detectives!

Sorry I Haven't Written In A While

This is a post to remind myself that I need to update the blog a little more regularly.

Per my eldest daughter's request, I will try to keep up with the kids and all our family doings!

I earnestly want to be better in posting! Especially since Clay bought me a new, LARGER memory stick for my camera for Christmas. I should have no excuse not to have a few photos to comment on once in a while. :)

Enjoying Dad's 82nd birthday in Utah

Alyssa and I arrived in Utah on Dad's birthday! We joined Kurt, Jill and little A.J. for a Birthday BBQ Bash! Mom was even able to join us from the Care Facility! Jill's parents helped Dad celebrate and we all fussed over A.J. Isn't he adorable!

Clay graciously stayed home with the kids in Seattle so I could enjoy this time with my Dad! Love, Bianca

Summertime Outing

After a couple of weeks of rain on and off, we
took advantage of a sunny day and decided to make the most of it. So we took a bus to a park and
had hours to explore. From crossing streams and bridges, to eating
blackberries, "making rain" and following trails. It was a day well spent.
