Today we went to the Clark County Fair. This was both of the kids’ first trip to this fair, and we wanted to do something fun to celebrate David’s birthday. At first we weren’t sure how well the kids would do, but they were both awesome, and Hannah had lots of fun. David and I [...]

Lately, we have been teaching Hannah to make funny faces…mostly because it cracks us up. She is hilarious, and the three of us have been laughing a lot. She knows she gets a laugh too, so she makes her faces quite frequently. I thought I’d give you a chance to laugh too. Henry is becoming [...]

Earlier this week, I asked Hannah to play with Henry while I put the laundry in the washer. I told her to get a few rattles and play them with him. When I was done with the laundry, this is what I saw… Hannah had emptied two of Henry’s toy baskets onto him one toy [...]

We have really been enjoying our summer here at the Lindner house. Hannah and Henry are both doing so well, and it has been fun to watch them grow and change. Here are a few things that have been happening around here in the past few weeks. Hannah really enjoys cooking with me. Just about [...]

This just goes to show that the best pictures aren’t posed..they are captured. We were out washing the car today, and I noticed Hannah getting a drink from the hose. It was priceless, and I couldn’t help snapping a few shots.

Yesterday, we took the kids to the Oregon Zoo. It was Hannah’s second trip (third if you count ZooLights) and Henry’s first trip (although it probably wasn’t very memorable for him). It was a beautiful day, and we had a great time. The zoo wasn’t very crowded (although I did see three of my past [...]

With the recent heat wave, we have been taking every opportunity to let Hannah play outside in her new backyard. She loves to run, play with sports balls, throw her frisbee, chase bugs with her butterfly net, and play with Joey. However, her favorite things to do outside are play in her pool, and play [...]

We decided to take advantage of the nice weather and our time together by taking a family “daycation” down the gorge. We started our day by heading down the Washington side, enjoying the beautiful and scenic drive. We stopped to have a picnic at Beacon Rock State Park. It was absolutely gorgeous! The nature around [...]

For the fourth of July, we went to our senior pastor’s house for a bbq and fireworks. Before the fireworks started, Hannah had fun playing in the backyard. She did LOTS of bubbles, played soccer (she’s actually getting pretty good at kicking!) and basketball. David and I also taught her how to throw a frisbee. [...]

Hannah had a great time picking strawberries at Grandma’s house. She might have ended up eating a few more than she put in her basket however. Hannah also loves to wear her “cool dude glasses.” Hannah recently received a reading achievement award at our local library. Along with a certificate, she got to choose a [...]
