This is the cake Gwenny and Logan made for Dylan on his birthday, and a picture of Dylan the morning of his 2nd birthday!

Happy Halloween!!!
First day of school 2007! Gwendolyn started 5th grade (next year middle school, yikes!) and Logan started 2nd grade! Our babies are getting big!!

Dylan got his first Haircut! He did a GREAT job, and sat still during the whole thing! No more side mullet! (these are for you Melinda!)


Bend Trip






These are pictures from our family trip to Bend, OR. We had such a great time, and saw some amazing and beautiful sites! Gwen, Logan, and Dylan did great on the trip, and loved that we got to stay in a Yurt.

We had a great day trip to the beach a couple weeks ago! We spent most of our day on the beach playing in the sand and in the waves!!

Jeremy's photography




Jeremy has found a new hobby! He has been taking TONS of pictures and has a real talent for it! He is still practicing but these are some of my favorites that he's taken!!
Dylan is 19 months now! He talks all the time and has a large vocabulary for his age! Dylan's favorite things to do is jump on the trampoline and play with brother and sister!!
Gwendolyn is 10 now and will be starting 5th grade in the fall. She will be going to her first over night camp this summer and she's so excited! Gwen is still active in Girl Scouts and is in the process of earning her Bronze badge, which includes 15 hours of planning and community service!
Logan is a busy 7 year old, and will be starting 2nd grade in the fall! He still practices skate boarding any chance he get's! Logan will be going to Camp Grider day camp this summer and hopefully will start football this fall too!



I was fortunate enough to go to Florida in May to visit my sister, brother in-law and nieces! I took Dylan with me, and he hit it off great with my niece Mary-Grace! We had a great time visiting!

We are always happy to spend time with baby Elijah! Gwen, Logan and Dylan love holding the baby, and seeing him get big... Dylan doesn't totally understand what a baby is, but he's very gentel and curious about Eli. Such cute kids!!


If you can't tell, these day's Logan's obsession is his skateboard that he got for his birthday! Logan is outside all the time practicing tricks and trying so hard to learn to skate better!
Logan's doing AWESOME in school, and is starting to enjoy it more and more.
Logan is going to start AA this year and is really looking forward to playing! He'll have most of the same team as last year, and Jeremy will be the teams assistant coach.

Dylan is just about 17 months now, and OH SO BUSY and OH SO FUN!!!! He is curious about everything, and loves to climb and wiggle his way into little places!! Dylan's talking all the time now! He loves to say bye-bye, and go-go... and loves to go for rides in the car! Dylan also says; sissy, brother, doggy, kitty, want bite, down, up, mama, dada, bath, no-no, uh-oh... and lots more!! I'm impressed with his vocabulary at this age!!!

Gwendolyn is still VERY active in Girl Scouts and has already earned about 10-12 badges this year for various activities!
Gwen's in a group called Battle of the Books this year at school... There is 1 group from each elementary school in Salem and which ever group answers the most questions right about each book, wins at the end of the year! Gwen is confident her group in going to win!!

I finally built up enough courage to cut my hair! I'm happy with my new look, it's fun!!


Dylan LOVES playing at the park! He likes climbing up the slide and then sliding back down!

The best kids EVER!! Logan and Gwen are amazing big siblings! Dylan adores both of them, and Jeremy and I love watching the 3 of them interact together!

That's us! Jeremy and I have been together for 5 years now, and I still get butterfly's when he comes home! That's a good sign!!

Barkley has about tripled in size since we got him in November! He's a good dog, he loves it when new people come to the house! I think he's a keeper! All the kids seem to enjoy having him as a part of the family!
Logan and Gwen are both doing GREAT in school this year! Logan has learned that he really enjoys math! His teacher is very impressed how fast he can problem solve! Gwendolyn's enjoying geography, and learning about "Wonders of the World!" Gwen is still active in Girl Scouts, and has already earned 8 badges this year!


Congratulatoins to Joe and Rachel! Rachel gave birth to baby Elijah on January 3rd!! He's a beautiful baby boy, and we're so excited to have him in the family!!!
