More fun at the beach!

Here are some more pictures from our fun day on the beach...



We even decided to feed a bird, though he was a big bird and he ate alot of our crackers... :)

("Rusty was here") We wrote some messages in the sand.

Ahhh...(sigh)

Videos of Rusty and Sienna at the beach...

Rusty was really acting funny at the beach. He just got so excited when he saw the ocean. There were two women who were flying a kite. Rusty was asked if he'd like to help throw the kite up into the air. He was sure proud of himself for the successful send-off.

A Trip to the Pacific Coast!

On Saturday, we spent almost the entire day going to the Oregon Coast. We went to Cannon Beach, OR which a is nice, quaint little town with shops and restaurants near the coast. But the highlight was definitely seeing the ocean. Rusty kept yelling "Ocean, it's the ocean!" as he ran all over the beach. It was a little windy and cool, but overall it was fun to finally see the coast.

Trip to Krispy Kreme for FHE treat...

YUM YUM! We went to Krispy Kreme on Monday night after Family Home Evening. We all love donuts and we had fun wearing the hats. Daddy even snuck Sienna her first bit of donut.

Bowling...

These were taken last weekend when Grandma and Grandpa Mehr came to visit. We all had a good time bowling...

What great form!

Connor proved himself to be a very formidable bowler...

At the Pumpkin Patch!!

This last weekend Grandma and Grandpa Mehr came up to see us along with Uncle Connor! We had such a good time. One of the highlights of their visit was our trip to the Pumpkin Patch. It was fun to watch Rusty and Sienna sitting among the pumpkins. We are all getting ready for Halloween!

At the park...again.

Rusty really likes to swing. We think it makes him feel like somebody in particular...

Meanwhile, Sienna is just sittin' pretty. (Gotta love those two bottom teeth, what a cutie!)

Playing with Daddy!

Here is Sienna, looking cute and sitting on Daddy's throat...Daddy's face is turning purple.

"Oh, I'm sorry Daddy. Are you okay?"
"There, that's much better. Daddy can breathe and I can still sit on him."

All ready for Church...

Here are some pictures that we shot of the kids all ready for church today.

Different video clips of Sienna in WA

Here is some more video of our little girl...

Friday night date night!...with the kids

Well, we decided that it would be fun to go into Portland for dinner on Friday night. We went to a Pizzeria-Pub called BJ's. It was really good. We shared a pizza and then we ordered Amber's favortie dessert, a PZookie, which is a huge cookie still sitting in the pan it was cooked in, with a generous amount of ice cream that sits on top of the cookie and slowly melts.

Sienna is tuckered out...

Whew, all that fun at the park was too exhausting for our little Sienna. When Amber brought the kids home from the park, Sienna was so tired, that she literally fell asleep in her high chair. Poor girl...

At the park...

Mommy took Rusty and Sienna to the park on Thursday. It's still nice and sunny here, but it is noticeably cooler. The kids and Amber had a good time getting out of the house for awhile.

Rustin is now...Batman!

When I returned home from work yesterday, I discovered that we had a new superhero in the home. Rusty became Batman! Although, I think he is a little confused because he is still holding out his hands like he is Spiderman. We'll work on it. Grandma and Grandpa Mehr sent Rusty and Sienna a care package with Halloween costumes ( Batman for Rusty, a pumpkin for Sienna ) as well as some Halloween Beanie Bears for Sienna and an Indiana Jones action figure for Rusty. They were very excited to receive such a great package in the mail from their grandparents.

If you are missing Sienna...

Here is a great video of Sienna, if you need your Sienna fix. It was taken just before we left Utah. We were at Grandma Mehr's House on 9/7/08.

Rustin is Spiderman!!!!

Rusty seemed like a normal tv-brain-washed two year old, at least, that's what he wanted us to think... little did his family know that inside his mild-mannered alter ego, he was in fact...Spiderman!!! (cue the music...) Just kidding. Rusty visited his cousins yesterday and discovered that Luke (his cousin) is a big spiderman fan. They quickly got along and Luke was kind enough to share his costume with Rusty. It was on his head for most of our visit. What a kid!
