Family pictures at the reception: all the Jenkinson grandkids (22) plus one of two great-grand kids and a new groom! Isn't family great, and just think there is one Jenkinson child not producing yet and one that isn't done.... which means MORE KIDS!!

Sister and Brother- its so fun watching them interact

Don't you wish you knew what they were thinking!?

Where to even begin... A very busy summer

Austin's First Baseball Game at Safeco Field! Go Mariners ( even though they suck! ) The second weekend in July we drove up to Seattle to meet up with my parents, and went to the Thursday - Friday games of the M's against the Yankees! It was fun and exciting, especailly to watch Austin take it all in. First night was a little rough, he got antsy and impatient by the end of the game. But the second night he did great. Plus we were toward the end of potty training so we visited the bathroom often. Yes Austin is now totally potty trained ! I really thought it would never happen, but it has. It was like somebody just flipped his switch and bam he is potty trained. He is still wearing a diaper at night, but first thing in the morning he goes pee. YIPPEE



Friday: Dad, Mom, Dallas and I went to the Boeing Musuem of Flight, in Seattle. It was actually really interestting. My dad is a major museum and "dam" tour buff, so when he said lets go to the flight museum we just thought "oh great another "dam" tour!" but like I said, it ended up being a great day. The original boeing barn is there and several different war airplanes. One of the Air Force One planes. A concord, the fastest passanger plane. unfortunetly my mom has alot better pictures that I haven't gotten from her yet. Like one of Dallas and I, also of my Mom and Dad standing at the top of the stairs on Air Force One, waving like the President and First lady! It was great!





Isn't it great, a doggy door on Air Force One. I thought it was hilarious.

Mothers Day we went for a drive after sacrament. Since we have One o'clock sacrament, we left early and went for a wonderful drive. We went about an hour 1/2 North, which in the end took us to the Canadian boarder. We found a forest service road that is wide enough for only one vehicle. It is a forty mile stretch of road that goes from a lake ( Sullivan lake) all the way to Priest River, ID. It is a road that Dallas has always heard of and was told that it is the most beautiful drive but to bring a chainsaw cause it can get pretty rough.... actually it would make the best 4-wheeling road. I can't wait to go back up with the 4-wheelers. Anyways, we got about 21miles into the road, when we hit snow! I couldn't believe it. So we barely made the turn around and headed back down the mountian. There are signs all over warning you about bears. Grizzly and brown bear territory ~ OH MY!

Like P's dollar bill in her in jeans! Her daddy thought she was only worth a buck!

This was a huge tree, I had to start at the bottom and then crawl up to where we are sitting!

Miss P enjoy the ride on daddy's lap

A view of part of the drive. God has definelty created some beautiful country for us to admire.

cute face P! Sitting alongside a large creek. This is actually at a camp ground that we will be camping at later this summer. ( hopefully)

Notice the dollar bill! Rock Star?

CUTE GIRL~

Seattle part 2

Listen carefully to what Austin is saying.....
Uncle Kasey taught Austin how to go up to the port-a-pottie and knock on the door! Luckily it was just our family he was doing it too. When it was G-ma Jenkinson's turn Austin went up to it and tried to "blow" it down. It was the best, we were all laughing so hard!

Below: Playing in a tidal pool. I can see the little crab crawling around and in the water, so hopefully you can too!

Seattle Trip: part 1 of 2

so last weekend Dallas, Linda, the kids and I packed up the car and went to Seattle for a much needed getaway! We left Thursday right after i got home from work and stayed at Linley and Kasey's till Sunday. It was a TON of FUN . I have a ton more pictures to post, but I'm trying to get them all into collages . Friday was our first day, we spent it at the Woodland Park Zoo in Seattle. I was the kid's first trip to a zoo. WOW - it great. Austin had a blast. Thanks linley and Kasey for a great weekend.

Having fun

Happy Blessing Day

The Last weekend of March Paislee and I flew to Utah to visit Brian, Carly and the girls. It was also the weekend of Emery's Blessing... the best part.... finally meeting my newest little niece! It was great, too short, but I'm already planning my next trip. It was Paislee's first airplane ride, she did great. We sat next to the window and two older ladies joined us. One was just about to turn 60 and the other just turned 80! They were awesome, Miss P sat on my lap the whole time, till about the last 20 mins she got antsy and then fell asleep. I waited till we were the last off the plane, before trying to get out with a sleeping baby and still having to pick up all the toys on the floor! ( good thing there are awesome stewardess on the plane to help) as we got off the plane the stroller was all set up and ready for me to put P into it. She stayed asleep all through baggage claim and Brian picking us up. Sunday after the blessing, we rode home with my parents, who had been enjoying a week in Peoria, AZ at Mariner's spring training. My boys came down to Pasco to pick P and I up.

Pais and Avie in the morning

Happy reunion. This was longest amount of time I have spent away from Austin- way too long I missed him so it was so great to see him and my hubby. The reaction between Austin and Paislee was great... they actually hugged eachother.

can we say CRANKY . He had just woken up and was not a happy camper... then got even more mad when I started to laugh and take pictures! ( before his hair cut )

I came home from work to find this..... plus Dallas asleep in the other chair. Peace and quiet - hurry time to blog!!

AHOY... I'm a Pirate. Austin plays swords with the spoons! and his belt is a pirate belt.... his image blows me away!
