I miss Lou...

I just saw this commercial and it made me crack up! As a lifelong Mariner's baseball fan.... I miss the fireworks provided by L0u Pinella!

Enjoy :)

Happy 31!

Happy Birthday Sean! Or... as Ian says "APPY BOODAY!"

Last year we kidnapped Daddy from work and took him to the zoo. This year, he's kidnapping himself and going golfing!

We love you babe.......... SO much!

Love--
Lindsey, Reagan and Ian

Sunday Tulips...

It was a busy weekend of annual traditions! After the parade on Saturday, we decided to visit the Tulip Festival on Sunday. The weather took a dramatic turn (much colder), but we made the best of it! Not all of the tulip fields were in full bloom, but it was still beautiful. My sister's family and my Mom, Dad and Grandma made the trip north too. Sean was behind the camera for the majority of the day... he got some great shots!

A Saturday Parade...

Saturday we went to the annual Daff0dil Parade. The kids LOVE it! (with the exception of the Pirates that really aren't fun) We had such a good time this year... partly because the weather was absolutely incredible. This tradition goes WAY back for me.... and I hope we continue it for a long time! Asher was cracking me up too... every time a new marching band approached he turned to me with the most hysterical face and gave me a high-5.

Some nutty group of people decided to blast a dummy out of a cannon.... this is me protecting Reagan and Asher from the *BOOM*.... they didn't love it. And this wasn't even the biggest blast, as the pirates were yet to come. Needless to say, we left the curb when the pirates blasted their cannon, it is crazy loud!

Ian and Daddy sharing some gourmet popcorn from the shop across the street... it was really good!

Waving at one of the many princesses. Reagan was a happy girl!
