Zoo Trip











It is so nice to live so close to a great zoo!  Brent was out of town for a leadership conference in Gettysburg, so the girls and I decided to head to the zoo for the day!  Each time we go, we try to see parts that we didn't have time for on the previous trip.  It never fails...they always lead me to their favorites...the lions, feeding the "colorful birds", sea lions, otters, elephants, monkeys, penguins, polar bears, and the stinky bats...why the stinky bats???

Logann's First Day of First Grade!











We still cannot believe that our little girl is a first grader!  Now that we are over a month into the school year, I still find myself missing her during the day!  Peyton took a long time adjusting as well...she misses her playmate!  On the other hand, Logann LOVES school and is eager to get up and get ready every morning!

Spokane Trip







 The house behind us is the house that Brent and I lived in for the last 3 years while we attended EWU!
The house where we got engaged :)








We took a trip to Spokane on the first weekend in August to spend some time with the Liezen Family!  We had a great time as always!  Our time was spent lounging by the Heimbigner's pool (thanks Jon and Karen!) and we took a trip out to good ol' Cheney to check out the changes to our old stomping grounds!  Wow has EWU changed!  The kids had a great time walking around campus, seeing the new red football field, and stopping in front of the house that Brent and I lived in for 3 years!  

Labor Day Weekend















We rented a house in Waldport, OR for Labor Day weekend this year!  Grandma, Papa and Uncle Josh joined us and Grams and Papa Dukes drove over to spend a day with us as well.  We went crabbing, cockle shell raking, metal detecting, walked the beach, roasted marshmallows on the campfire, and celebrated Brent's birthday a few days early!  Everyone had a great time!

More Soccer...

Not too sure about playing goalie!

Soccer Season Begins!






Logann is playing U8 this year on Team Liberty!
