Oregon Coast

Marty's Grandma, who we all call Bumpy, took the whole family to the Oregon Coast for 3 days! We stayed in condos right on the beach. Weall had so much fun together. What a great family time for us all!

15 Years

Marty and I graduated 15 years ago. While we were in Sacramento we got together with our high school friends and their children.

The Girls








The kids all had a great time together

Bye Bye Hair

We gave Jack a buzz for the summer. Best thing we ever did! His hair was always a mess and it is so thick it took for ever to wash and dry.

4th of July Parade

Our new neighborhood, North Admiral, has a tradition of a kids bike parade on 4th of July. We invited the Peter's along with us. The kids had a great time!

Sunriver, Oregon

Anyone who knows us, also knows our favorite place to vacation is Sunriver, Oregon! This time we invited along the Sharma family. Ann, and her boys Rohan, and Devin, and myself and our boys all drove from Seattle to Sunriver (7 hours) in our car. The drive went really well. The boys were all great, except Mr. Bryce did not sleep for more than 30 minutes and did not want Ann and I to talk to each other, he wanted all the attention. The dad's came up a day later after work on Friday night.



We visited the pool, took a great bike ride and enjoyed a beautiful and sunny weekend in Sunriver.







The start of the ride:


30 minutes of riding and they're both fast asleep.


A pit stop at Goodies for some ice cream!


Play time before bed- a busy day enjoying Sunriver is the perfect recipe for a good nights rest!
