We've got a climbing machine

It seems like every time I turn around she's climbing on something else. I can't stop this girl! The video is the first day she discovered how to climb on the table. I'd take her down and she's just climb right back up.

Crazy Hair Messy Face

I love to see Macey's hair in the morning. She must have some pretty wild nights!

Here's a funny video of her feeding herself.

Did I tell you we planted a garden?

Well we did! Just down the road from us is a community garden. We decided to try our hand at it, but have been struggling a bit. Our plants just don't seem to be growing at the same rate as everyone else s around us. I think we need to water more. We're going to try that! Even though it's just down the road it's hard to get there everyday and water. Plus Macey likes to pull the plants she sees, as well as touch all the mud that happens as a result of watering. Some of the things we planted are, tomatoes, squash, carrots, peas, watermelon, and peppers.

Here are a few pictures from the day we planted everything.

Models for an hour!

Alan's co-worker's wife (Laura) works for a photographer here in Yakima. Last month he was teaching a class to people who come from all over the world to learn from him, and they asked if we'd like to be models for it. It didn't feel as awkward as I thought it would be to have 40 people standing around watching us, posing us, and telling us what to do.
In this picture Macey was supposed to be looking at Alan, but she was too distracted by all the on lookers. There were 2 or 3 people behind Alan trying to get her to smile, but still look like she's looking at him. This was the best they got.

Amy thanks for letting me borrow your clothes!

Memorial Day

I'm kind of a delayed blogger, but I eventually get around to it!

For Memorial Day my parents broke out the Wave runners and we went to Lake Vantage for a barbecue and some fun at the beach

I think this was Macey's first watermelon, and she absolutely loved it. She kept eating the rhine.

We were going to take Macey out on the wave runners, but right after this picture I let go of her and she face planted it in the sand.

The only person who could console her was Grandma. For real.

After some of us took a nap, we played an exciting game of croquet.

Al and I taught Macey how to play while everyone else napped.

We had a wonderful Memorial Day!
