Violence in church nursery!

So, we dropped Trendon off for the usual 2 hours of nursery each Sunday. I was out in the hall in between doing my singing time with Jr. & Sr. Primary. I heard Trendon just screaming as someone was bringing him to find a parent. They brought him to me with this nice wound on his face. Apparently, another little boy was swinging something by a rope and it flew across the room and almost got his eye! He is very lucky that it didn't land a little higher up! His birthday is tomorrow and he is all black and blue as it looks even worse today! (Picture was taken yesterday) Stop the madness in the overly crowded 2 year old room!! We have great nursery leaders but way TOO many kids!!

Krailyn's First Day of School

Krailyn & Payton - little boy from our neighborhood, standing and waiting for the bus.

She is ready to be on her own!

There is that BIG Federal Way City School bus that she has wanted to ride since she was 2! Today, is your day Miss Krailyn! (And every school day after this too!)

Bye, bye Krailyn, have a good first day of Kindergarten!


Wild Waves Fun Times

Krailyn, Trendon & Jaron in the firetruck.

"Look mom & dad, we are driving at age 2!" Jaron & Trendon

We can fly! If only we could figure out how to pull the lever back!

If you look close, you can see Krailyn & Camilla (grandma) in the 3rd row back. They had their hoods up till Camilla's blew off on the hill. They were very brave as the weather wasn't that nice!

Utah / Idaho Summer Trip 2008

Cousins, Tate, Trendon, Hannah & Krailyn

Little buddies! Tate & Trendon, you would never know that there is an almost 6 year age difference between the two of them!


Twins? Sisters? Friends? No, just cousins. Krailyn age 5 & Hannah age 5.


We had a little family reunion while in Idaho. This is the family shot of my family. My mom & Terry are featured in the middle. Trent (my brother) is on the right and Tate & Hannah are his kids...


Ok, call me wierd but I some how find inspiration in cemetarys....Last year as I was visiting family graves in Pocatello, Idaho, my mom showed me this one. It is my great, great grandparents headstone. I absolutely loved the name! If we have another girl, she will be named after them, McKinnon! No, I am not making any announcements either!

Dallas Trip

Family at Grandma Fay's funeral. Missing were Keavin & Jaron & Trendon.


Ever watch Dallas? I did! Here we are at the Southfork Ranch!



Hey cowgirl!


Did I mention that it was HOT in Texas? This was the kids using their new Southfork hats with whistles in the car with the air condition on full blast to cool off!



Krailyn at the Texas Museum. This was right across the street from where JFK was shot.


Krailyn & Trendon with their 3rd cousin, J.D.


Craig, Alaina Krailyn & Trendon at the Dallas Aquarium. Did I mention that they had snakes there? EAK!!
