We BOUGHT A House!

Yup. And we're really excited. We get possession on August 27. Can you tell what I'm most excited about??? Any inside pictures are more like "before" pictures and I'm looking forward to being able to post the "after" ones in a few months.





I would have never thought leaving Abbotsford in the summer of 2004 that we would be staying here, I was really nervous about moving but it has been an amazing adventure and we are excited to continue it here!

Funniness of Family Life

In order to really "get" this post enlarge each picture in order by clicking on them.




We're not always on the same wavelength :)

Video

I've been trying to figure out how to upload video from out video camera, it seems like we need a different computer to do that....booo. Anyways here is a video from when Ty was about 7 months old. It's cute too, just not terribly current :)

Long-Weekend Camping Fun

We went to Deception Pass this weekend with my (Corinne's) family, it was a great time! Here are a few of my favorite pics....

The best Nana & Papa 3 boys could ask for.

Here's Jerry & Katie and Baby Cousin!

This is how Sawyer felt about going home today :)

Happy Birthday Riley

We've just had birthday week in our home and my boy #2 is now 4! That is hard to believe. We got him goalie equipment and he (and Ty and Sawyer) loves it. Riley is my super-competitive boy, he has a NEED to win and he seems to try to win by being defense. He does this at soccer to. It is fun watching him grow. I really enjoy seeing his sensitive side come out (which is a rare treat), but when it does it is so genuine. I really am blessed. I love my boys. Happy birthday Riley, I love you all the way to the moon and back.

Before and After

I cut Sawyer's hair a few weeks ago and at first was quite shocked with the change but now I'm pretty sure he's the cutest baby around :)

What's new in the Bargen household?

Here's a hint:
Yup, Sawyer is pooping on the potty !!!!! 15.5 months old, who knew???

(any Mom's out there, don't ask me how to potty train children, I've never done it, my children somehow do it on their own ;) )

Some pictures

I've been a bad blogger recently but I like to think that's because I've been a good mom :) Anyways here are a few pictures from a couple of weekends ago when Cory and the older two boys went on the LPC retreat. Notice anything different about Ty?
