Here is a classic picture of Isaac. This is what he does when he’s concentrating-he sticks his tongue out. Apparently filling gopher holes with dirt takes a lot of concentration.

Isaac loved my dad. The went around everywhere together. He loved sitting on the riding lawn mower with my dad.

My dad found this little tree frog out on their porch and showed it to Isaac. At least that’s how it started out. Pretty soon the frog ended up on Isaac’s shirt, thanks to Poppy who had a good laugh about that. The thing that was the most funny about it, is that Isaac had no clue it was there.

Can you believe how green it is there?? We went and played Frisbee golf together as a family. It was in the most beautiful location. The course meandered through the forest and out onto green flats. Isaac loved running all around, and I loved it too until the allergies kicked in.

My sister Laura took these pictures. It’s nice to have someone else behind the camera once in a while so I can get some pictures of me WITH Isaac. He was being so snuggly for some reason. Maybe it was because we were in my parent’s gorgeous backyard with the green fields going on forever…I realize I miss Oregon.

I love these pictures. It seems like photos with my family are more than priceless now. The picture of all my sisters and I is from a while ago, but we gave it to my mom for Mother’s day, so I haven’t been able to post it until now.

The reason I went to Oregon was for my youngest brother Luke. He was in a high school pageant where they earned money for the neonatal unit in Portland Oregon. It was so fun to watch and I was amazed at how talented he is! Here are some great pictures of him with Isaac, and also some more high flying pictures just for fun. And yes, that’s him doing a back flip which he also did at the contest. I love you Bookes!

Isaac loved going on this old tire swing that my parents have had for forever.

Isaac had such a fun time at the park. He even got brave enough to go down the slide by himself a couple times. I love this shot. I think it really captured the excitement he was feeling.

I finally caught a couple cheesy grins from Isaac, and even from Geoff. Isaac worships his daddy. Isaac’s teeth look kind of crazy here. I don’t think they do in person though, maybe it’s just me trying to get used to the fact that my 16 month old finally has teeth!
