Girls with a view

Cate's 3rd Birthday

You are a gift from above. We are so lucky you chose us. You bring out the softness in all of us. The happiness, the light, the sweetness. You complete our family. Happy third birthday to our littlest and bravest. You are precious and loved. Love you to the moon and back baby girl!

The other day Abi said it's not fair Cate has a better name and better hair, sibling rivalry has begun.

Love the summer bleached look my kids are rocking.

All these pictures were taken at Rocky Hill Park in Liberty Lake, my new favorite picture spot.

Couching, surfing, and wakeboarding

Brave little Catie, loving the couch at only two years old.

Blond and blonder

Cate called it her mingo

Hilie surfing with her dad

Abi and daddy, she loved it.

The cutest tiny wake boarder, Lucas. Ben got in to try after Lucas but got ran over by a giant wave and swallowed water, he didn't recover well so he got out. Always next time.

Owen had been trying to get up all summer and finally did, he was so happy!

Abi driving us home

Having an epic summer. Another great weekend at the Larson's cabin

Don't pursue happiness, create it.

Our first Spokane Indians game

It's about time since we've lived here 4 years now. It was fireworks night so we got to see an awesome show after the game, it rivaled the fourth of July.

Frozen lemonade and freckles

 

Blurry selfie, Cate was asleep in her stroller. 

  Fun night with the fam

  

We have monster zucchini

I don't go out in the garden for a week and bam, giant zucchini. This was one of three big ones. We have lots of cherry tomatoes already too.

Alaska fishing trip

Brad was lucky enough to get invited on an Alaskan fishing trip with the guys. Unfortunately the seas were really rough so they couldn't go as far out as they needed to for the big catch. They had fun and came home with a big box of fish. Brad said it was beautiful and cold, and they had a whale crest right next to the boat, pretty freaking awesome. Good way to spend a 37th b-day.
