10/1 - It is fall here now, and the mums in front of our house are blooming. They grew huge this year and are taller than Brooke!

Daddy's Birthday

Brooke and Leslie surprised me with a trip to Charlottesville for my Birthday to visit UVA. They took me to lunch at Michie Tavern, which is right next to Thomas Jefferson's Monticello. Brooke loved drinking from the pewter cups and thought all of the ladies dressed up in colonial dresses were pretty neat.

Brooke in her pajamas

Lately Brooke has been really loving her pajamas that she has. This picture is one of her favorite pairs - her "cars jammies". We also liked this picture of her since it shows Brooke with her hair down - it is getting really long even though Leslie has cut it a couple of times.

Brooke's new raincoat

This is just a random shot of Brooke. She was really excited to go to school in her new raincoat.

Seattle Summer Trip!

We made our annual summer trip out to Seattle again this August. We had beautiful weather and Brooke enjoyed seeing everyone. She was able to go to the zoo, Edmonds Beach, Pike Place Market, swimming, for a boat ride, to Great Grandma's Birthday party, and had a great time doing it all.
