WOW! 5 years and counting...

Justin and I just celebrated our 5th aniversary!

Where does time go?

We had a wonderful trip to Tahoe where we even enjoyed a sleigh ride.

Christmas Memories!

Wow, I can't believe how fast Christmas came and went! We had a beautiful Christmas which was spent with many family and friends. Justin, Ryan and I spent the week with family at Nana and Pappa's house in Loomis and at the cabin in the mountains. We couldn't ask for anything more!

Birthday Boy!

Happy Birthday Cowboy!

We went out for Justin's birthday, and they made him sit on the saddle while we sang to him.

He loved it!

Ryan's Latest Hobbies

Ryan has become quite the little man trying new things every day.

His latest hobbies include shooting (Daddy's favorite),

driving the Rhino,

the motorcycle,

and of course, who can forget Pappa's tractor.

Is there anything that this 2 year old hasn't tried yet?

Arriving Spring 2008

We are very happy to announce that Baby Boy Drinkwater will be joining our family by April 2nd of next year. We are very excited, and Ryan can't wait for his "Baby Brudder" to come.

We know it's difficult to see, but it was the only way we could make it work!

Carving Pumpkins!

We had a fun family night carving our pumpkins.

It took some coaxing from Mom and Dad for Ryan to clean his out.

But once he got the hang of it, he had a great time!

The finished product!

Pumpkin Time!

For part of Ryan's birthday we went to Bishop's Pumpkin Patch.

Ryan loved riding the train...

and the hay ride...

petting the animals...

and of course being one!

But nothing beat finding his own pumpkin!

Another year older...

We can't believe how fast our little man has grown. He just turned 2 and had a great birthday!

Ryan had a great time with his friends, and as he says a "fun birday!"

Home Sweet Home!

Home at last!

After 7 months of watching and waiting, or home has gone from this...

To this!

We're so happy to finally have a place to call our own!

Beach House ~ Ogden Family Reunion

Well, it's been a while, but we're finally home and have the internet again.

We had a great time at the beach in Ventura.

Ryan loved the beach!

The 4th of July

Ryan just loved riding in the wagon during the 4th of July parade.

HAHAHAHA! Yeah Right!

The rest of our day was beautiful!

We had a great time at the lake and doing/watching the fireworks.

"Fishy Kisses"

We had a fun time visiting the Seattle Aquarium.

Ryan loved giving "fishy kisses" to everyone, even the fish.

We even got to pet the starfish.

We all had a good time.

Camping at Pinecrest Lake

We went camping for Father's Day at Pinecrest Lake with some friends.

Ryan loved swimming,
riding in his bike seat,
roasting marshmallow's,
and playing in the dirt.
