San Juans!!














At the end of June our family went to the San Juans! We got to ride on the ferry to Orcas Island and then stayed in a yurt for the long weekend. There were deer walking around and racoons that were not afraid of humans. David and Matt enjoyed the fishing and the girls enjoyed going on walks around the beautiful resort. It had the coolest set up, very earth friendly, shared kitchens for the guests, very clean showers and amazing view of the surrounding islands.
Also, for those of you who have not already heard D girl and Bubba moved from our home into a long term foster home that is a better fit for them. We miss them but know that this is the right decision for everyone. Once again we are on a search for the next member of our family! Wish us luck and please keep us in your prayers. Thanks for all of your love and support during all of this!

Ziggidy Zoo















Spring Break trip to the zoo was a blast!! All the kids had fun even though it was a little chilly. They got to see tons of animals. Eli loved the monkeys the best. He was pressing himself against the glass to get a better view. It was cute to see his reaction to the animals. The little petting zoo area was fun, they got to feed hay to the goats.

Look at me!

Eli and his friends had tons of fun at the church Easter Egg Hunt!! The eggs were filled with goldfish crackers, what a great idea!! We had fun watching him shake the eggs and then throw them or squeeze them open.

Bailey and Eli Adventures













This past week cousin Bailey came to visit. She and Eli had lots of fun and were exhausted by the end of each day! Eli thought bath time was extra fun having someone to splash and share toys with! We also went to the community center play group where they got to slide, ride toys, dance, teeter totter, and throw balls around. Miss you Bailey...
