This is Patrick (HE is Tim’s cousin) wearing a wig. I think this picture is freaking hilarious!
Thursday morning we got up and had a wonderful breakfast. The boys spent most of the day tending to the turkey in the smoker and the girls hung out in the kitchen making (& eating!) the side dishes. More guests showed up around 2pm and we were eating by 6pm.
This is Angela. Her and her husband are from Scotland and still have their heavy accents. Angela was the life of the party. She told some great stories and her accent just made them that much better! It was ‘blutty this’ & ‘blutty that’. I just Loved her!
Friday at 4am a few of us girls got up to take advantage of the sales. It was actually a lot of fun! We drove around forever trying to find a coffee shop that was open that early. None to speak of! We got back home around 9am and everyone in the house was still sleeping. Later on we all loaded up and went to IKEA. I had never been but had always wanted to check it out. OMG… I could have spent hours in there. It is the coolest freaken store! Friday night we had a great game of Pictionary. It was so much fun! And lets just say... my husband is the worst 'artist' EVER.Saturday we got up and headed down to Pikes Market. I just love walking through there and seeing all the colors of the veggies and all the home made crafties. My favorite, though, are the street performers. The kids got to ride on the carousel & we had lunch at Fisherman’s right on the water.
Sunday morning most of the clan headed back home to Idaho. The kids and I stayed behind for one more day. Debbie (Tim’s aunt) took me to the Container Store, we took the kids to the driving range and ended our day at a local dairy and had fresh ice cream.

And off we went, early Monday morning, back home. Both kids slept the whole plane ride home. We had a great time in Seattle but it was so nice to be home. You know what they say…
‘there’s no place like home.’

You went to IKEA?? I'm so jealous! I must go someday.
I love your pictures! Your kids are so freakin CUTE. And you take the BEST photos. What is your trick to getting the colors so amazing and clear and not too "lit up" by the flash?? I am so photo-retarded. Maybe it's not a better camera that I need, I need some skillz. I think I've asked you this before, but do you have Photoshop?
Im a little embarrassed that you read my blog before I could fix it. My internet froze up which made my post all screwy.
Well, my NEW secret for good pictures is... I got a new camera. I got it for a steal on Craigslist! I LOVE IT!!!! I do have photoshop but none of those photos were edited. Actually, Ive rarely even used photoshop. It is so un-user-friendly.
Love your pictures Jack! You are a great photographer. That Allie is the cutest thing and Kole, OMG he's turned out to be the most beautiful baby!
I have to call and scold you today - I had a dream you were pregnant again.
I THOUGHT that post was wonky.
YOU GOT A NEW CAMERA?? WHAT KIND?? I can't believe you haven't mentioned it.
its a NIKON D60. Its a few months old. I got it on Craigslist and it works like a charm! I LOVE LOVE LOVE IT!
What beautiful pictures ! The colors and the composition are so great. And they tell the story so we can share your day----almost smell the turkey !
So glad you had a great trip and I know the kids entertained everyone. Such cuties. Thanks for sharing.
