Humbug Mountain

For Memorial Day weekend we went down to Oregon for a camping trip - escaping the drizzle in Seattle. Not sure how they came up with the name, but it was beautiful, and Charlotte and Peter did pretty well. Charlotte did learn the phrase "are we there yet?" which is . . . awesome. . . but otherwise it was a lot of fun. They loved spending time with their aunt Katie and uncle Zach.

It was pretty windy, if you can tell by our makeshift "shelter" on the beach:

 This was Peter's FAVORITE game. It is a little more tiring for the person carrying him than it is for him. . . . believe it or not . . .

 This is Queen Charlotte ordering her subjects around.

 Peter has learned to "smile" and say "cheese". Adorable. . .

Cape Blanco lighthouse. Beautiful. Also extremely windy.

Marienkaefer Charlotte found a friend on the beach. Everything was fine until it tried to crawl on Peter.

This is Peter cheering for himself. Pretty cute.

Nature Adventuring

Brad posting here. This morning Charlotte and Peter were watching "Nature Cat" and they had a "little art show" with a mouse. They displayed photographs taken of things a little closer to the ground. Charlotte was inspired; when we went on a bike ride she took her camera with her; it was on the video setting so she got some epic videos of me cycling . . .

But on our nature adventure we got it fixed. She's pretty good; her aunt Katie has trained her well.

 

 I also took some pictures. I'm also pretty amazing :)

 



 



Mother's Day

For Mother's Day Charlotte, Peter, and Brad made a production of Peter and the Wolf. It was pretty adorable. You can see it by following this link.
