Drew: the best big brother!


Happy 15th Birthday Drew! Drew is turning 15, and we are going to the DMV so he can get his drivers' learning permit. He is the best big brother and has lots of experience.

Here are some photos of Drew through the years. As you will see, he has grown A LOT! He started as 18" and he is now 6'1"! Also, he has always loved anything related to the water - swimming, fishing, sailing and more.

Have a great day, Drew!

Blowing Bubbles

We took a trip to Salem to visit the Oregon State Capital. Drew got to be a page for the legislature, while Jake and I went to the Children's Museum. They have a really cool bubble room there. We also went to a place call the Mission Mill where they used to make wool fabric back in the early 1900s. Also we took the tower tour to the top of the Capital. On top there is a gold statue of a pioneer. To get there you climb up 122 stairs. You can click here to see photos.


How to Make Your Own Bubble Mix:

1/2 cup of dish washing liquid (Dawn or Joy)
2 cups of water
2 teaspoons of sugar

Mix well and add a few drops of food coloring if you want to have colored bubbles.

Spring Break


It's Spring Break, and it has started off to a good start.

We had a super fun time at the Aquatic Park on Monday. It is a fun place to go, especially if you like water slides.

This is a photo album of our trip.
