A lot has been going the last couple of weeks. unfortunately there are events where I couldn’t get a good picture or things were so busy I simply didn’t get to take one. Here is what I did manage to get. One night was Sounder’s night for the youth group, so I was able to…
Another week, another batch of photos. Let’s kick things off with the “cute duo” I don’t even remember when this was over the previous couple of weeks. As you might remember Xavier is taking T-ball this spring. Here he is working on batting. This past weekend Ciaran and I went on a hike with others…
This year Ciaran wanted to copy August’s car from last year, but he wanted it to be the Silver Surfer, not some knock-off. So when it came time to shape the Pinewood Derby car Ciaran had definite ideas about how it should look. While we didn’t get it exactly shaped like a surfboard, it was…
The Northwest Folklife Festival has been a staple of the Seattle area for more than 40 years. But that’s not the end of it.

This past Saturday was the championships for Dela’s gymnastics group. It is a pretty big deal because only two teams from her division were invited to the competition. I think there was something like 10 teams total from the three different branches of the Seattle Gymnastics Academy. While here other three events may not have been as…
This year August and Déla have decided to join band. August is taking the trombone with Déla picking up the flute. Since August is in 6th grade now there’s a lot more stuff to carry back and forth to school. Here is how August travels to school on Tuesdays and Thursdays. Aren’t these two cute? Last Friday…
This past weekend saw the first race of the season for our cross country runners. Here they each are as they approach the end. Xavier and Ciárán had a half mile, Déla’s grade does a mile, with middle school doing a mile and a half. August wasn’t quite prepared for that but he never gave…
