Holmes has been practicing sitting after standing, and Meryl jumped in as a guide!

No joke, Halibut Cove is five blocks from our house! We went on a family walk today, and while Frank and Meryl were at the playground, Holmes, Lummi, and I went for a stroll and stumbled upon a picture of Halibut Cove at the bus stop! I literally did a double take. We’ll be back for the view!

Meryl has short days this week at school, so Frank took her to the zoo this afternoon! And if Meryl goes to the zoo, she simply has to ride the horses on the merry-go-round:)

With glamour shots while eating…the whole thing.

When your family sends you Honey Bucket selfies for your daughter’s enjoyment. We’ll take ‘em! Its good clean fun, after all; highly sanitized with a scent of silliness:)

To Rainbow Room and beyond!

This is all Frank:) From soccer cleats to breakdancing sneakers! Because, shoes. Plus, we’re all about rainbows these days.

My favorite! Plus, we went out for mochi (rice flour) doughnuts prior - my new obsession.

A new school year for Meryl starts tomorrow! First homework task, bring in a family photo. Gang’s all here!

(Side note, this kid has eaten so much this weekend. Our fridge isn’t big enough for his teenage years and all his teenage friends!)

In the wild of the backyard, a rogue kitty!

Kids are asleep, it’s all about meeeee!

First breakdancing class in the books! With soccer now over, we’ve transitioned to what surprisingly turned out to be an even more tiring activity…running around a dance studio (sometimes dancing) for a full hour. Got some dim sum afterwards for lunch and hit the family nap scene hard. And since class is in the International District, we’re looking forward to eating our way through all our favorite spots for several Saturdays ahead!
