Not high fashion. But fashion.

It has started...  Dylan is now taking my clothes and creatively making them fit.

Shopping and twinning with Matilda. 

Girls camping trip!

Kim and I just so happened to have a random Tuesday and Wednesday off so we decided on a last minute overnight trip to Nehalem Bay. 

I was a little nervous about putting up the tent since I had only been camping twice before and Marty always does this part but...  SUCCESS!!

We found mermaids!!!

Summer birthday celebrations!

Abbey had New Zealand Kune Kune pigs at her 7th party!!  Adorable. 

Then the infamous water slide bounce house!  I forgot my suit but promised I’d go down at the end of the party. Was hoping Dylan would forget but of course she didn’t. So...  in my dress...  I did it. What I wouldn’t do for this girl...  

And Sydney turns 8 with a backyard bash at her grandparents house. 

And the last summer celebration...  9 years old for Ashlyn.  Ninja party and sleep over. So much fun.

Miscellaneous summer fun.

Scootering princesses.  These girls have a style all of their own!

Legos!!  It's nice to have a buddy to play with - it keeps screen time to a minimum.

Current obsession:  slime.  

Alice in Willowbrook.  One of the best plays yet (in my opinion).

The jabberwocky that Matilda and Dylan were desperately wanting to bid on at the auction.

Open House at Out To Pasture.

These girls had swim lessons at Greentree Pool everyday for 2 weeks.  Everything is more fun with friends.

Does summer really have to end?  I love seeing the smiles on their faces.

Ben and Jerry’s Carnival

It was a perfect summer day for free ice cream and carnival fun.  Thanks Ben and Jerrys.  

The I Scream Swing was a little scary!  The kids loved it. I was a tad nervous. 

Metro Camp with Emi!

Pre K friends from way back when. Dylan and Emi did a Metro Gymnastics camp together in July. What fun!

After camp pool fun at Greentree Pool. 

Marco Polo!

Salt N Straw. Nothing says summer like swimming and ice cream. 

KGW filming at Montage.

It was Mac Monday at Montage and they were featuring a Hab Sauce mac n cheese and interviewing the guy who developed the Hab Sauce. (That’s Dylan’s  aluminum foil peacock in the background.)

Dylan was star struck from meeting McKenzie Roth from KGW.
