tomorrow.

tomorrow

is the first day

of the rest of your life...

...and the first day of a new pre-school.

*crossing my fingers*

i hope it goes well

the last saturday

for two years now,

daddy has been really busy

with school.

between homework, study groups

and lots of long night classes,

it has been a looong two years.

but today is a special day.

because today is his very last saturday class!

we're proud of you daddy!

an oregon picnic

who needs charlie's angels...

when we've got

these three musketeers?!?

state fair

after much convincing, the boys entered the "stinky" barn

where they saw cute bunnies and fluffy chicks

and wanted to take them all home.

a "must" stop

the dairy maids of oregon.

for the best deal of the fair

$1 ice cream cones

and THE best oreo milk shakes ever.

and i'm just so happy

that both boys are finally tall enough

to ride the rides.

where else can you take an airplane ride,

a tandem motorcycle ride,

a dump truck ride,

a hot air balloon,

a space-ship shuttle thingy ride,

and pose in between some banana trees?

the oregon state fair!

stop.

every now and then

we have to just stop

and smell the roses.

each other

people stop
and ask me all the time

"are they twins?"
no, i just like to dress them alike.

"how far apart are they?"
15 months

"wow, that's really close..."
yup. but they'll always have each other.

yes, you boys are a handful.
yes, you drive me crazy.

and no, i wouldn't have had it any other way.

last days

enjoying the last few days of summer...
