Monday, May 12th, 2008 - Bellingham

This past weekend with went with Cam, Kamaile, Heidi and Branden up to the "Beaver House" in Bellingham (my in-laws townhouse). We had a blast! Of course I forgot to take pictures while I was there. We had 3 different age babies on 3 different schedules for naps/bedtime - and we STILL had fun. The boys went fishing (didn't catch anything - touchy subject), had an interesting Walmart experience, the girls went to the mall, got dinner from Tino's Italian, walked around the lake and even had a beaver siting. We also saw 5 little baby gooslings.

We call it the Beaver House because when we say this Preston knows what we are talking about. The first time we ever visited the townhouse we saw 2 Beavers right by their house. We haven't seen the beavers since but this weekend we saw them swimming in the lake. One night it was pitch black and Tom and Cam were fishing - 2 beavers jumped into the lake right by them and scared them. It was hilarious.

Here are the 2 pictures I did take. First is a picture of Preston doing puzzles (Grandma Matthews had toys up there for him, of course!). Wesley is chilling in the famous blue chair. Jan bought that for Preston because he would not get out of it when we were at the store. We brought it back he would never sit in it again. Jan will be happy to know it's being put to use with Wesley:



Here is Wesley and me (with no make-up!). We enjoyed a breakfast made by Branden. Another great moment this weekend was we finally got Preston to take a shower. I think it was the 2nd in his entire life. It's because of Grandpa's cool shower!



Next time I go I will take more pictures! I am trying to get a new camera because I used my dad's camera for Wesley's blessing and it took great pictures. My birthday is coming soon..... :)
