june stuff

Our little guy turned two!

He was so excited to see "decorabees" (decorations) for his birthday.

Balloons! Presents! Decorabees!

He couldn't wait to open presents.

More presents.

New baseball set from Grandma and Grandpa Self!

The theme of the day was one of Evan's favorite things -- Mickey Mouse! Check out those pancakes :)

Mickey Mouse pizza!

Mickey Mouse cupcakes!

Cute little Mickey Mouse chocolate pretzels! We had a great day with our little guy.

Our idea of a chill Saturday afternoon.

Preschool buddies at the zoo!

Another hit present was his first Lego set -- airport!

Our soccer girl loved her class. We'll have to get her into another one soon.

Someone else has been getting some good practice too! Daddy's going to brag and say that he dribbles the ball better than half the kids twice his age in Brooklyn's class!

Speaking of soccer, the USA did better than expected in the Copa America tournament and ended up playing a playoff game in Seattle. Austin couldn't resist...

...and schemed with Braden to get him up for the game! USA! USA! USA!

Braden couldn't stay long (and would be coming back for a week in August anyway) but we packed in some fun stuff. We went to one of our favorite breakfast restaurants...

...and picked raspberries...

...and just had fun playing with Uncle Braden! We will be excited to see him soon.

Father's Day!

Brooklyn did some fun stuff for Daddy -- the answers of her question sheet were pretty great.

We did some pre-baby cleaning and re-arranging and found a box with some of Daddy's mission stuff. We think Brooklyn looks pretty adorable in a fox fur shopka!

One Saturday we decided to go on a "hike" at one of our favorite parks...

...capped off by a picnic!

We love being surrounded by trees up here in Washington.

Tire swing!

Farm park!

Evan got to go all by himself with Mommy to do some more berry picking.

It was Evan's favorite -- blueberries!

He was a good little berry picker and an even better little berry eater!
