Opening Social for Cottage Lake. Skate King September 30, 2014

Somehow I missed this picture.  The boys like getting the diapers out every once in awhile and wear a diaper.  Here's Decker in a diaper and his cape.  Captain Underpants!  Which is one of Decker's favorite book series to read too.

 We are back at the skating rink.  Practice makes perfect.  :)
 





 

  Uh oh!  There's a boy sitting on the stage ledge which is a no no.  Cody sees this and it doesn't take him long to think..."I want to sit up there too."
 

 

 
 
 Decker has a mouth guard in his mouth that lights up with neon.

 
 Our little figure skater!

Visiting Grandma Markie's grave September 25th, 2014

I'm not sure why these pictures are posting sideways, because they aren't that way in my files...
This is our garden at the end of the summer.  We had some huge sunflowers and Mike wanted to go put them on Grandma Markie's grave, so we cut them all down

 
 Decker is reading this scripture to Cody.  I think it is from Alma 41 about the resurrection.
 Then we let the boys take our picture.  ;)
 
 Cody finally gave up and passed out.
 I made a couple of blankets for friends baby's.  Decker always wishes I was making them for him.  He still loves his own baby blanket and loves to snuggle up to these new fresh blankies with soft satin.  These are for Spencer Collet and Cora Holscaw.



Guess who came out on the boat with us??? September 6, 2014

Our last day out on the water for the summer and Grandma Wood joined us!  We were working with the boys to dive off the back of the boat.  Here's grandma showing them how to put their hands together over their heads.



 He did it!


 Then mom and dad showed them how it's done.

  We dove off the back of the swimswet a few times.  Great day and way to end the summer!
 

 
 Here's a pic I forgot to post on his first day of school.  A little questionnaire for Decker to fill out.
 And they had to draw a picture of themselves.  Of course he has a green shirt and Decker said he forgot to put the ears on his picture.  :)

Snoqualmie Falls Hike July 21st 2014 and visit to Grandpa Bob's July 27th

We ran up to Snoqualmie Falls for a short hike.  Dave Dejong met us there with his Labrador retriever,  Gracie.  There was a lot of spray all around.

  Caught a little rainbow in the pictures.  It was pretty slippery with all the mist, I was concerned most of the time about Cody or Decker falling on the rocks.



 


 
 Climbing to the top of a rock.
 


 




 
 
 

 
 
 Then of course, there is water and we knew at some point the boys would want to get in and get WET!  Shoes came off, then the shorts....

 


 

 
 
   



 
 


 Then they were a little cold. so Cody wore my jacket back home.
 
   




 The piping..


  Dad thought that he needed a hair cut.  Here's some pics from all angles.
 


 Then Mike took the boys over to Idaho to get our trailer over there for our upcoming camping trip.  Rob Schmalle was in the area too.  Those crazy kids!

 And of course, we got to pick some ripe blueberries at Grandpa Bobs.

 





 
 This is at Mike's work on a motorcycle.    Boys loved it!
