Long Beach, WA

Long story short... Sean was supposed to fly to CA to see his friend Tom but no open seats. So we went as a family to Long Beach, WA which we thought was only 2.5 hours away but really about 4 hours. Oops! We were so busy getting the house ready to list that we didn't have time to pack so we just brought along our clean laundry basket with clothes instead of suitcases. Nothing like a last minute trip (we are able to do that because Sean is on sabbatical for 3 months). It was beautiful and sunny. The kids loved having their feet in the sand though it was super cold (about 60 degrees outside). The kids were able to see their first sunset at the beach (my all time favorite place to watch the sun set).

Before & After... Mission Complete

For those of you who don't know... in 2004 we purchased a "fixer". Well, we should have called it a complete "gutter". With much help from many friends just 2.5 months short of 6 years we are done fixing it up! It looks just how we wanted it to and we put it on the market. It went on the market yesterday. Here are a few before and after shots of our home.

The After Pictures....

Micah's missing tooth/teeth

Micah lost 2 teeth this past month. Here are pictures after the loss of the first tooth. I can't believe he is old enough to loose teeth.k
