The whole family had been puttin together puzzles a lot

lately and today we all kinda worked on this one off and on.

My boys love to play outside and today it started to rain again and so they get bored easily. It's nice to catch a moment like this every now and then instead of them gaming all the time.

April 26, 2009

Today we were to meet up with Justin to get the new wheels for my car

however one of them was cracked so that was put on hold .

We were bored after having a good family day trip to the beach yesterday.

I rode to the tracks and back on dad's bike (1/2 mile each way) Nater hopped on Colton's bike and Jake chased him for a few minutes till Nate's knees hurt.

Nate did use the neighbor dude's chain saw and cut down alot of the libs around the area here.

Then we just kind of hung around all day bored.

Today The Schmidt family was at the beach so Nater, the boys, & I

had went to the beach to meet The schmidt's there.

To get my mom's camera from them that I had accidently left at

Cher's durring Pink Hat weekend.

Nater driving... (Cell phone shot)

I had left my mini purse camera at home go figure....

When we arrived at the beach Cher was at breckfast witht he family so we had decided to drive the beach from Long Beach to Ocean Park. We were'nt on the beach 2 minutes and Colton spotted a huge Bald Eagle sitting on a huge stick. Go figure no camera and the Cell phone wouldn't zoom in enough. He was only 25 - 50 feet away. We were so bummed out about this.

However driving alittle further Colton tells Nate to turn around... secretly waiting to find the perfect time to do it and this was the perfect opportunity he whipps a cookie. Only for us to find this poor dead thing. Then some one had shot in in it's head. So sad!

What is it? Do you know? If you do let me know.

We were thinkin a newborn baby dolphin, or whale.

(cell phone shot )

Well like retards we are we didn't take any pictures of things like of Colton & I on bumper cars, Cher & I shoppin' at Scrapachino, or of Bailey freakin out and yellin get out of his way in Marsh's meausem.

( That I wish I had a video camera for it was so funny. Even this lady

we didn't know thought it was funny. It was crazy packed in there. )
We then finally decided we were going to head home. Then Bai started complaining he was hungery again so we stopped at Chico's for pizza.

(cell phone shot )

Who would have thought this would be the one place the kids had the best time at the beach.

But look at what they found.

(cell phone shot )

Then Bai realized you plaied and plaied on 1 $0.25 man you must have plaied 5 - 6 times per quater and they won each time.
Then Nate got in to it.

(Colton took this cell phone shot.)
I couldn't get Nate & the boys away from this stupid game. We were there for 2 hours eatin pizza and playin stupid Candy Crane!

I should have bought this for my new pink hat

(cell phone shot out of order )

On our way home we came around a corner I told Nater to pull over and he did. We quickly dug out the camera , Nate got out and walked arounf to my side of the truck and we both took some of these differant shots of the Elk. How ever we didn't find the Bull. We were pullin away and Colton says I see him. So Nate wipps another cookie in the middle of the road and you could see him in the trees however my lens wouldn't pick him up

it just looked like a patch of trees so I didn't post it sorry !

They realized Nate had walked closer to the fence.

We missed the shot of them shaking the rain off their bodies too dang it .

At this point the bull must have called to them they are getting very nervous

The boys had enjoied watchin the Elk so we had decided to ddrive threw the

lil wild life refuge in this podonk town I forget the name of. then Colton see the Venus Frontier freight cargo ship coming down the Columbia so we dicided to pull over so he can see the wave suck out towards the ship and then flood back to the river sides.

then it became a fun time of me shootin pix of them and

them of course being boys throwin' rocks in the river.

It was so chilly out there it almost took your breath away.

Of course my boys no hoodies on.

I like this picutre of Nate.

It's rare to get a picture of him.

I like any picture of Nate where he's not makin some wierd face.

oops didn't realize I had already posted this one sorry

Another sleepless night lastnight from just not feelin good at all. I got up once Nater got up and went to the couch.I got to watch 2 of some of my favorite movies. The princess Diaries and Father of the Bride 2 Why don't they show the sequles in sequence? I hate that

My fav. part is where he's running between the wife and daughters rooms.

April 22, 2009

I have never been so excited I had thought I lost this picture

Nater had drawn of his

" MISSING COMB "

Still not feeling well I slept most of the day and would doze here and there but durrin one of my rare awake moments I had gone threw my phone and decided to add rest of numbers to the new phone and found that the picture had moved over to this phone unlike that Verizon guy had thought. So this was my excitement of the day.
