happy birthday little sadie girl. i can't believe it has been three years. and to see benny so small and with sade is too cute. i loved all the pictures. well i see that jackson is not the only artist in the family, congrats janie bear.

well it sounds like everyone had a fantastic weekend. i wish we had all been together. we also had a very nice weekend. we went up to seattle and it was totally quality. on sat. we went to the arberidum (sp) and took the boats out. it was awsome and i finally got a little color on my oh so white body. i didn't swim or bridge jump because of the huge ball in my belly, but still we had a great time. benny is an animal, scared of nothing. so she swam with danna when no one else would. sun. we went to the locks and saw a huge fishing boat go through, the kids loved it. then mon. we went to the folk life festival in down town. cory said the funnest part was watching dad watch all the hippies. he said it was worse than going to rei. we had a really good time.

now we are back to real life. but that's ok. benny learned how to ride her bike this last week, it only took two days. she didn't ride all weekend then came home got right back on and flew. it took jackson a couple of weeks to master the turn, ben has already got it down. jackson also had a hard time with the starting, and needed help for a few months, yes ben has already got that down too. all of this in three days. like i said she is an animal. i think the reason she is so good is her amazing balance. she can sit on her bike, feet on peddles and balance there. i think we are going to try her on the unicycle next.

well the rain is back so i am just going to go crazy for the next 30 days until the baby is born. all though i am trying to get my mid wife to take her early. i just don't think i can go without sleep for that many more days.

i love you all, and all that ...................me
