We're goin' on a tree hunt...

We went to Farmer Brown's Christmas Tree Farm last weekend to chop down our tree.  We had a great time with TC, Grandma Shorty, and Susan and her girls...and we found the perfect tree!!  Its beginning to feel a lot like Chirstmas...

Little Gym

Anderson has been going to Little Gym in Everett for the past couple of months. He has learned how to do a forward roll, how to hang from a bar, the bear walk, and a ton of other things. He really likes the classes and it' a great outlet for all of his energy too! Here are some photos of him at a recent class. I have a great video that I captured with my new camera but can't figure out how to upload it to the blog. Oh well...maybe you'll see the video in a later posting.

Anderson on the balence beam!

He loves reaching for and then hanging from the bar.

All smiles and fun at Little Gym!

Anderson on the iPad

Anderson has developed a new found love for our iPad. We recently downloaded a couple of free games. It's been fun to see what words and skills he has that we've never taught him. So cool!! Some of the games he really likes are Monkey Preschool Lunchbox, eFlash, and Sound Board. The monkey games is his favorite but he can't quite complete all of the activities independently yet, however, he's getting close. After a couple of exposures to a games he seems to know exactly what to do...amazing and brilliant (of course)! Enjoy!

Seattle Marathon...we did it!!

Brad and I completed the Seattle Marathon on November 28th! Yes...all 26.2 miles! It was a fun but difficult marathon...very hilly. We both did great and we're happy it's over! Thanks to all of our friends and family that came out to cheers us along.

Brad and I have a goal to run a marathon in every city/area we've lived in since we've been married. So...we've done Denver, Portland, and now, Seattle marathons. Who's up for meeting us in Chicago in 2012 for the Chicago Marathon? Judy's...maybe we should road trip it out there again and run it together. It would only be fitting!!
