Sears Family Vacation

I love my boys! We just returned from a fabulous vacation and it was so fun to see family, play with the boys and get quality time with Kent...we are already planning our next adventure.


Luke loves pillows! I finally bought a bedding set for our bed and while Kent doesn't care for the seven decorative pillows that came with it, Luke loves them and likes to "hide" in the pillows. I think it is his own personal heaven!







This past week we went to Cherry Hill (a RV and water park)to join my family for a huge family reunion. Kent had not met most of my extended family yet so it was really fun to introduce my hunk of a husband to all the craziness that is my family. He was a good sport and we all had a great time. The kids did so well on the flight and the whole trip that Kent and I have decided we can start taking family vacations for real! YEAH! Kent is voting for Disneyland but I want to wait until the boys are a bit older. I bet we go within the next six months though.

The only bummer is that we were so busy playing the water and trying to keep the little ones happy we did not taking any pictures-we will just have to go back soon and make sure to take pictures!

Luke was very brave and went down the "Double Dragon" (a waterslide that had dips, dark tunnels, and fog) with Kent three times. He thought it was pretty great until he came out into the pool at the end and went under water for a second or two. He kept telling anyone who would listen all about it: "Luke fall down go boom under water".

And Jack is just an angel. He wakes up each morning with the biggest smile and keeps them coming throughout the day. He is the easiest little guy and absolutely huge! He makes friends everywhere we go and draws lots of comments from people about how he is going to be a football player when he grows up. Time will tell!
Kent and I were even able to leave the kids with Grandma and Grandpa and go down the waterslides for about an hour. We had such a blast!

Happy 2009!


We woke up December 18th to SNOW and a lot of it! As much as we love the snow, we were afraid it was going to keep us from being with family for Christmas. But after being stuck in our apartment for four days, Kent dug out our car and we headed on the road to visit family!

We spent the next few days in Vancouver and Molalla celebrating Christmas with family and had so much fun! I hope this Christmas season was a blessed one for all.

2008 was a great year, but man did it fly by! 2009 is full of exciting plans for our family beginning with a cruise in February where I will be making a presentation and leaving the boys at home with Grandma. Kent and I are having mixed emotions about being away from our very young, adorable boys, but we are planning to have a blast!
