Proud Moment with McKenna


This picture was snapped with tears in my eyes.... I had asked McKenna to go practice writing her name on her drawing tablet so I could finish the dishes. I knew she could only write an 'M'. Moments later she came back shouting "Mom!! Mom!!"....I look over at her and to my surprise she actually wrote the word 'MOM'! I just couldn't believe it. The greatest thing is that she understands that letters make words. What a huge accomplishment for our little McKenna. We are soooo proud of her and continue to support her, as usual, with lots of love and positive re-inforcement! Way to go McKenna!!!

Water Play, May 2008

Grayson & McKenna can be the greatest playmates sometimes and today was one of those days. Nothing better than a hose, a bucket of water and a few plastic cups to entertain the little ones....

McKenna's 5th Birthday Party

McKenna's 5th birthday party was a blast! We celebrated in our backyard with a bounce house and a pinata. McKenna was walking on clouds on this day. She shared so many smiles and giggles with us on her big day. Here is a little video of all the fun we had....

Party Time, April 2008

One of the greatest parties we have ever been invited to!

Train Town in Sonoma, California

As we were traveling to Santa Rosa for a birthday party we stopped at a very fun place....Train Town. The kids all had a great time. Grayson had some major issue with riding the little train (loud screaming and sad faces!). All in all it was a wonderful afternoon. Lots of trains, farm animals and a long over due visit with our long time friend, Robin.

Camryn & McKenna


Sisters and Friends Forever.... These two little girls have such an amazing bond!

Grayson and Crazy Hats

Our Newest Member of the Family...MARLEY


Some how the kids...mostly Camryn....talked us into opening our home to a kitten. So, at the end of February we met our new kitty at the Placer County SPCA. She had many proposed names (Libby, Miley, Bindi, to name a few) but ended up with the name Marley. She has become such a fun part of our family. She is outgoing, playful and very confident with herself. She eats a little too often, as compared to Logan our older cat, and has developed a little pooch. Marley get along with all of us so well even Logan. The two of them absolutely adore each other....it is pretty cute.

Helping Daddy Vacuum, March 2003

McKenna and Grayson have this complete obession with the vacuum cleaner. Pretty cute but it sure takes a little longer to get the job done. :o)

Vacation in South Lake Tahoe, February 2008

We had such a wonderful time on our mini vacation to South Lake Tahoe with John, Carri and Andy. The eight of us shared the cutest little cabin for four days and three nights. The snow was amazing, the kids were well behaved and the wine was plentiful! We look forward to many more good times with the Hunt Family....they are amazing friends!
