Bennett's Braces Are Off!
Mood:  celebratory

Bennett got his braces off today.  He was so excited...until they gave him his retainers!  Not as happy now!  Anyway he looks great...my baby is all grown up.  I managed to get a picture from the first visit to the Orthodontist...he has grown so much.  I also took more photos today.

Seattle
Mood:  happy

Here are some photos from a recent trip to Seattle with Grandma and Grandpa Gibson.  Sat they took the boys on a wonderful Duck Tour and then we all went to Hooters for dinner.  On Sunday we split up and a few went to the Seattle Science Center and the others went to the Flight Musuem.  Enjoy the photos...we had a great time.

Baseball 2008
Mood:  energetic

So I know it has been ages since my last Blog session...I am glad to be back!  Well we are about 1/4 of the way through the baseball season and loving it.  Bennett and Maguire are on the same team for the first...and most likely last (due to their age)...time!  The team is the Phiilies and Bennett is also on a Babe Ruth team, Skagit Elite.  Coleman is on the Orioles coach pitch team and is so darn cute.  Here are some photos and I will try harder to keep updating.

Playoffs 2008

Bennett and Spencer were fortunate enough to be invited again this year to a Seahawks Playoff game against the Redskins.  Our friends Riley and Kristjan took them and the Seahawks won...a great day!  Here are pictures from last year and this year of Riley and Bennett...they look much older to me...I will post more photos later.

Girls Weekend
Mood:  happy

Wow!  It has been awhile.  We have been very busy lately and are now trying to scramble to get Christmas all under control.  Anyway all is good at the Gibson House.  I had a wonderful time last weekend with my girlfriends from High School...we spent a wonderful and life changing 3 days at Mary's house and here are some pics and a poem Trinity wrote that sums it all up.

 

 


 


 


 

 


 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

I will savor the days like a warm, rich chocolate melting in my mouth and soothing my soul
A long car ride, made short by sisterhood, vodka and cranberry
Both bladders and hearts too full
Hugs and kisses, hello's and laughter
The t-shirt's tell the story and set the stage for days to come
Who is this woman, grinding wheat into pizza dough, killing pigs for a topping?
More laughter more wine...followed by more laughter and wine
Asleep on a bench, why the pain in my hip?
A poor pregnant lady who pees through the night
Spending the weekend with hands tracking the every move of August
 
Ahhhh, morning coffee - Twelve pots pressed before 9 am
Bacon and eggs - - Potatoes worthy of jazz hands
What is that?  Homemade bread?  Like, you really made it?  Who knew?
Bellies full and hunters prepared to take down their prey
Poor, unsuspecting christmas tree
Dragged back to the homestead by the mountain man
Girls, not quite fitting on a two-man sled, laughing all the way down the hill
Cold, so cold, with hearts so warm
The power of rifles, both inside and out
The tree, so maimed, so fragile, shot down by the famous gun-swinger
Canned vegetables by the fire
Let the knitting begin, and begin, and for some, begin again
 
Tacos so savory, tortillas so tender
A nap so warm and cozy - - interrupted by the world's worst nightmare
Flying across the mountains on a plane knitted by Lisa
Talking late into the night
Banished to the room
Trying to laugh under our breath
Poor Brandi
So many memories - - recalled and forgotten
Will we ever know the truth?
Did the huckleberry's buckle? Why did they taste so good?
Perhaps it was the love they were picked with in the spring
 
More knitting, more jazz hands, more laughter, more memories
And, for me?  Sad goodbyes that still felt like warm hello's
Three days that changed my life
And reminded me of who I am
 
All my love - Trin

Soccer Fever!

Saturday was the last soccer day of the 2007 season.  We were at the soccer fields for 8 hours while Bennett and Maguire competed in their Championship Tournaments.  Bennett's team won 1st place for the second year in a row and Maguire's team finished 3rd.  Katie was also there for her tournament...they finished 2nd.  It was a fun, exciting and wet day.  I am glad we can breathe for awhile.  No sports in the works for a couple months...Here are some photos.  OH and notice Bennett's haircut...Finally!

Pumpkin Patch 2007

On Saturday we made our 2nd annual trip to the Pick-a-Pumpkin Charity Event to get our pumpkins and participate in some fall fun.  A farm in South Mt Vernon puts on the event every year to benefit Children's Hospital and it is fantastic.  Nana met us at Ristretto, my friend and CoCo's aunt's new coffee shop, for some coffee and breakfast, then off to the farm, and then back to the house for Halloween cookie house building and porch decorating.  This is definately something we will continue to do every year.  Enjoy the pictures!
