Superbowl Sunday - park pregame

We enjoyed a fun trip to the park to burn some anxious energy before the big game.  



Dave, Amy, Cashel and Peter joined us for the weekend and Peter and Amy came to the park while Dave and Cashel went to get some game time goodies.
It was fun and quite a way to kill some time before the game started.

More random shots to update

Since I am behind on updating I am combing some individual posts into one. 
Lucy asked me to take this photo of her!
Lucy got a pretty good owie from the corner of the fireplace mantel right above her eye.  She was a bit freaked but enjoyed when everyone in the family wore matching band-aids.
Jaydon got a fun rocket for Christmas and some weekend in January we finally got out to play with it. The goggles were the kids idea, pretty cute.
We struggled to get our rocket to launch (baking soda and vinegar) but eventually after a couple mis-attempts it fired, it was fun to watch.

Pretty cool huh?   Of course I couldn't get a photo of the actual rocket in the air.
Jeremy and I went to a fundraising auction for the Epilepsy foundation through Jeremy's work, we had a good time with his co-workers and enjoying ourselves in the spectacle of the wealthy auction.
Jaydon and Lucy had some couch snuggle time!

Jump Day

We had a playdate with Krissi, Gavin and Blakely at a nearby jumping place.  The kids had a fabulous time and since it was Blue Friday they were decked out in their Hawks Finest!

Lucy loved this car
Going through a tunnel
A ball pit for the little ones
Big trampolines for the over 3 set (Lucy was quite bummed she couldn't play on them)

They were in heaven with the basketball shoot place


Running and jumping into a huge foam pit

Lucy riding a horse.  It was pretty awesome and I am sure we will go again.

Happy 90th Birthday Great-Grandpa CJ

We had a fabulous time getting to celebrate Great Grandpa CJs 90th birthday.  Nana Diane and her sisters threw a wonderful party at their club and it was a drop in event in which a ton of people showed up to celebrate Grandpa.
Auntie Kelsey and the cousins came which was awesome because it was the first time Jaydon and Piper got to really play together, she was 9 months old the last time they met.

Then the kids favorite part of the event - CAKE!
It was great to see so many family members and get to enjoy time reconnecting, although it was brief it was a wonderful party.

Seahawks Rally

We are big Seahawks fans and Jaydon has definitely become obsessed the past two seasons, Lucy also gets in on the action saying "Go Hawks" whenever she seems the logo.  So I decided we would head down to the big rally before our first play off game.  The kids and I had a great time.
Jaydon doesn't look all that enthused but he got into the spirit.  Lucy loved her hot dot that was bigger than her head.

A Seahawks car
A Seahawks kitty, so awesome, it reminded me of how Higgins will travel on shoulders wearing a leash/harness combo.  This kitties name is Meowshawn Lynch!
Jaydon got to meet Blitz!  Lucy was very adamant about staying in my arms and not getting too close.


Russell Wilson and Richard Sherman posed for a photo with Jaydon!
The three of us being 12s
Go Hawks!

Jaydon made this sign by himself!  It has been in our front window now for months.
After the rally I took the kids to a nearby park to burn off a little energy before driving back home, it was a great outing!
