Backyard Fun


 I completely forgot I had these pre-fishing trip pictures on my other camera!


Think they're a little excited?
 
The men... all six :)
 But BEFORE the fishing trip, JT and Jim practiced casting in the backyard.j


Haley was happy to watch.


The first cast went over the chair. The second went over the fence. And the third, well...



It went so far that it got caught in our neighbor's painting project! Good thing he's a super nice guy.


We also took some time to do some skiing. You know, preparing for summer. JT decided to do some trick skiing and went backwards.


Haley completed her first ski. I knew it wouldn't take anything to convince her. JT took one trip around the yard and she was shouting, "Ski too! Ski too!" from the deck. She said she liked it!


I will apologize for this video in advance... JT was filming!

We're Moving!

Less than two months ago, we were leaving my parents' house in Port Orchard to go ski and Jim joked, "Hey, we could move to that house," as he pointed to the house across the street. We have joked about moving back to Port Orchard after 18 years away for quite some time, because most of our family lives there and our favorite ski lake is there. We've never been serious. Then we found out that the house was going to be for sale, but hadn't been listed yet, so it was kind of for sale by owner. So we toured the house and... we loved it. Then we found out that we could possibly sell our house for enough to make sense financially. So we made the owners of the Port Orchard house an offer and... they accepted. Then we spent a week making our house ready to sell before we left for ten days of camping. So we listed our house while we were gone and... it sold. We looked at each other and said, "Are we really moving to Port Orchard?" Because we really, really ...

Our little arrival!

We are pleased to announce the arrival of JT (John Taylor) Keene, born at 1:13 AM on Tuesday, July 15th. He was 8 pounds, 8 ounces and 21 inches long. Everyone is happy and healthy!

34 Weeks

We had our 34-week baby checkup yesterday and all is well. Five weeks to go! I spent the entire time at Banks Lake in a bikini because it was too hot for modesty. :) My sister-in-law took this picture to document Haley's "first trip" to Banks Lake. A few weeks ago I took one afternoon to do a canvas painting for Haley's room to match her cute Pottery Barn valance and bedding. In the picture, the valance is above and my painting is below. I can't wait to hang it up in her room! I ordered the crib yesterday and it should arrive next week.
