Tysen Layne

Baby Ty is officially 5 months old today, I can't believe it!! He loved these red snapdragons and even managed to pluck a few all by himself!

Tracie and I at the Park with the kids....

Playing at Wonderland Park

We visited the park again, this time with Tracie (my sister-in-law), and cousins, JC and Sydnie. It was such a beautiful day, hot and sunny. We rode bikes, took pictures in teh flowers and went for ice cream treats afterwards.

Face Painting and Rock Wall Climbing!

Well we went to Governor Palin's picnic here in Wasilla today and it was a blast! My mom, the kids and I enjoyed hot dogs, hamburgers, root-beer floats, popcorn, numerous games and booths etc. The highlights for the kids though included face painting, a giant inflatable slide and the rock wall that Brandon go to climb with the help of the National Guard.

Kelly Portraits

We had our Kelly Family Portraits done last month and I just got the pics back today... I think they turned out GREAT!!!!!

Looking All Yupik and Stuff!

Here is what my kids and I decided to do on a rainy Wednesday afternoon.... have a fun, family photo shoot! I thought the pictures turned out wonderful! Brandon made this great paper mache eagle mask that fits to his face perfectly at school. You should see Donovan native dance! And Tysen was grateful to inherit his brother's clothes!

More of Dillingham.....

Bradon came up with a classy way to eat hot dogs... and it required NO HANDS! Tysen had his first boat ride and Dad checks the net on pretty much the only sunny day we had!

More Dillingham pictures from June 2007

Here's mom and I splitting our catch of 130 big fat good 'ole Bristol Bay King Salmon... yum, yum, best in the world! Robert let the boys drive the Lund and they thought they were the coolest. Perhaps the "BESTEST" thing for the boys though was just traveling down our Kanakanak Beach to THROW ROCKS IN THE WATER! YAY!
