May 2013

Here is Viv at the Victory Height's Carnival. It was a fun-filled day truck painting, seed planting, games and hot dogs! The other pictures are from a little get away across the Sound to Bainbride Island Memorial Day Weekend. We had a good time riding bikes, searching for clams and crabs and just getting away! The picture of Max at the piano is him getting ready to perform at the Syre Elementary Variety Show. He played Mary Had A Little Lamb flawlessly! 

Coach Pitch Days

Here is Max with his two missing front teeth. The second one fell out mid-bite of a hamburger while Paw-Paw and GJ were here. It was a mess but once it was over his sweet smile got a little cuter. He sure has improved in baseball. The games are fun to watch and chase little Viv around the play structures.

Great God Almighty Yes We Can Can

That was one of Max's choir songs this Easter season along with I'm the World's Greatest. He is making progress in the short time he has had piano lessons and really seems to like it. He's back into baseball doing coach pitch this year. Vivian is tumbling about in her gymnastics class on Tuesday mornings. It's only 5 weeks long then we'll probably be onto something else in this "getting our feet wet stage". The transition to Syre has been pretty smooth for Max. He's made some friends, lost his front tooth ( 4-17-13) and soon will start swimming lessons again. If I can upload the missing front tooth picture from my phone I'll do it. We are off to Suncadia this weekend with Paw-Paw and GJ and look forward to some much needed R&R. 

Splashball and Other Happenings

I have not taken many pictures recently since the big move to Shoreline. It seems like we go and go and go. We love it up here. Max starts his new school next week! Here are some pictures from his splashball games. Also Vivian by a mossy tree in greenlake at nature school. Max helping Vivian to some water outside his classroom at Jane Addams. Vivian insisted on wearing her backpack almost everyday that we dropped Max off or picked him up. Vivian jumping on a trampoline at Seattle Gymnastics Acadamy and one of Max's masterpeices "mushrooms". This weekend is Easter and Max is doing his choir again at CSL. There will be a few egg hunts as well. I will get some pictures and video's for sure!   

For the record

The most loveable, adorable, sweet, vivacious, full-sentence saying little Ms. Vivian Beene got her first haircut! Couldn't love her anymore than we do. 

Christmas, New Year's and Beyond!

Hello Blog, not much time to talk.......just a few pictures of our Christmas spent in Seattle this year, just the four of us. Relaxing and enjoyable. It's always an adventure and the next is moving up to Richmond Beach. Good-bye Seattle house, hello new house......very soon!
