Beavers Baseball

Mark won a suite at a Beavers' game (of course he did) so the gang went down to PGE Park for some baseball fun...

It's not a game without junk food...

Playdate with the Twinnies

Eli with the bat...say no more...

Love the action photo...Gracie gently touching Brody's back...

This was the best dogpile that Gracie could do. Not very impressive Grace...

The best photos are those with a "golden nugget" in the background...

The munchkins loved sliding with the cousins...

Do you notice that Gracie found a friend? She took "teddy" everywhere...

All they need is a big pile of dried leaves to crunch...really...

Safari Sams

No culinary master but it is what it is...

Mt. Hood

We spent a great family weekend at the condo up on Mt. Hood. Among the activities were: kayaking on Clear Lake, Alpine Slide-tubing-bungee trampoline at Ski Bowl, Kahneeta, climbing the boulder and S'mores around the campfire.

This kid was worn out from all the fun...

Bungee trampoline at Ski Bowl...

The boys helping dad get the kayak ready...

well, mostly bugging dad while he gets the kayak ready.

And they push off...

Brody thinks about going overboard...

Coop swims for shore...

...and he makes it.

Hillsboro Fountain

I drug the boys around with me today to run errands so I let them cool off in the Hillsboro Fountain. Not a huge fountain but there was live music nearby so it was very nice...

Notice Brody and his muscles in the background...

Bullwinkles

Coop and his buddy Jack went to Bullwinkles for some summer fun!

A little boy craziness after the bumper boats...

Jr. Golf Tournament - Day 2

Coop shot a 17 on day 2 of the tournament - his personal best. He just hit great and was so excited with his score. He placed 4th overall for 3 holers.

We took the fam to The Bite to see Uncle Nick play and eat some great food. Our good friends Alex & Jessi joined us with their gang of boys: Noah, Jonah & Matteo.
