We're off again....

So I had to do a little work in between vacations. We had a great play date with our buddies and this one included booze so it was great. We had a pool party and BBQ with a bonfire. Marin did us a nice favor and stayed asleep through the party! I stayed up till midnight. We had the NYC newlyweds in town and all was right in the world. Marin is discovering her emotions and temper. She continues to thrive and is more fun than not so we are going to keep her around for a bit longer.

We had a huge storm and a huge tree fell in the yard. It hasn't stopped raining since so I have been sawing in the wet weather and I got soaked.

Charlotte goes for a tide pooling adventure--she found a pearl

Looking squeamish after she tasted the starfish

Speaking of temper this is the face that Marin gets before she goes on a rampage

Kurtis and his front gunner Sammy

Way point Ringleben alpha bravo Hartke

no officer, I haven't been drinking

Once again practicing the look that will get her what ever she wants

This one big tree

Alex toys with me again with his telekinetics. He does this every so often so we know who's really in control.

I hope Marin's choice of swim wear continues unchanged for years and years to come

You see a cute baby girl posing next to a flower pot... I see a ball of mischief that is about to eat some mulch...

So Marin can now get up on the couch herself.

At least they "say" non-toxic

Yes its good to be me.

Marin loves her grocery cart.
