Ally's birthday dinner after the fair.
Ally got nervous when they put the hat on her and started singing. LOL
Blowing out her #6 candle on her brownie cake. She decided instead of the $20 Hannah Montana cake she would have the $2 box of brownies and get the $20 cash to spend at the store (couldn't pass up that offer from Daddy...).
Kids picking up their hotdog vouchures with Grandpa John at Safco Field. Go Mariners!!

My little Horton's Who!
If you put a hand over the left side of his face (looking at the picture) you will see his normal face.. then cover the right side of the picture...The "doctor" asked if his face was swollen> He said he couldn't tell since he didn't know Tyler.

Trip to WA 2008

Kids at Mt Shasta on the way to WA.


So the kids and I made our annual trip to WA the end of July. On our way to their Tyler's front tooth became abscessed. We arrived at Trisha's on Saturday evening and Tyler and I were up all night (no joke) trying to find a dentist that would see him on the weekend. With no such luck...somehow at 3am I was told (can't remember who I was talking to at 3am) that Harbor View Hospital had a dentist on call and they would be able to help Tyler. So Tyler and I were off to the dentist first thing Sunday morning. Once we were checked in and in a "curtain room" we were told that they won't touch kids teeth...I let them know that I really appreciated them letting me know when I called them on the way to the hospital confirming they had a dentist for my "son". They gave us Tylenol 3 and penicillin. The Tylenol 3 was a blessing from God (no joke). Poor little guy was in so much pain he was begging the doctor at the hospital to pull his tooth. Monday we went to a dentist and had the tooth pulled. Lets just say it was awful and my little guy was a SUPER STAR! He held so still for that dentist (even the dentist said he was shocked because most adults don't sit still like he did) we were all amazed. I guess the tooth was so infected they couldn't really numb it so you can imagine the pain he went through. After the appointment Tyler and I pretty much collapsed for a couple of days. I have to say Tyler totally could have played a Who's in The Grinch that Stole Christmas... : )



After that the fun started. We were able to see all the cousins (thank you everyone for coming over to Trisha's), went to a baseball game (thank you Dad), picked up our new tent trailer (thank you Uncle Reid) and even got to go to the Fair (thank you Aunt Carolyn and Grandma Linda)!! I have attached a few pictures so you can see how much fun we had. Hope everyone had a great summer!
