Kohlton loves the animals. Anytime a cat walks in he giggles and smiles. He loves Isabella! Here he is with his arm around her. It was adorable. Such buddies.

The kids at the park
Paul and Todd took the kids to the annual monster truck show at the Tacoma Dome while Ashia and I took the babies and went shoe shopping at the mall. The kids (and daddies) loved it. 
Shay takes Marissa to AWANA (a fun christian gathering for kids) every Wednesday night. Marissa loves it and looks forward to it all week long. She has memorized more than 50 verses from her fun workbook. And she earns badges and jewels on her vest - she that really motivates her. 
Every week there is a dress up theme. This picture was from "crazy hair and silly socks" night. 
This is her kimono Paul brought back from Japan. She wore it to AWANA for dressing up in different cultures night.
My parents took the kids and I, and Shay and her kids for a fun day up by Quilicene. First we went to our favorite restaurant in Quilicene for pancake breakfast. Then the kids played at the park across the street for awhile. After that we headed to a park and walked the trails to the waterfall.
Then we went to Brinnon to hand out by the Dosewallips river. The kids rode their bikes all over. Of course they mainly rode through the huge puddles.
Marissa learned to ride her bike with NO training wheels. She has been scared to for the last couple years but just decided one day to try it and it was super easy for her. I took the kids to Kitsap Memorial park to ride around. Cold but that certainly doesn't stop them from having fun!
Kyle is still doing soccer and loves it! He talks about it all week. Most mornings he is slow to get his teeth brushed and dressed but on Saturday mornings (when soccer is) he is dressed in his uniform and ready to go the minute he wakes up.
This is Marissa in a "for fun" soccer game. Not sure it was really her "thing". She is such a little ballerina that she was usually skipping and leaping down the field. But still fun and great exercise.
Grandpa Paul did soccer class with Kyle one day

I took Marissa to a 4 week sewing class for homeschoolers. She really enjoyed it, as did I.

Here is the first project she learned. Pajama pants.
Here is the second project she made all by herself. A heart shaped pillow.
Here is the last projects we did. I made Kyle a fleece robe (a bit big) and Marissa and I sewed the fluffy white shawl together. And I made her the skirt during class as well.
Swimming Lessons. Marissa still doing semi-private lessons. Getting much better but still very reserved in the water. 
Kyle and Hunter loved to play during lessons.
