tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-15682851149609296822011-04-21T12:28:20.627-07:00My family moved to the Seattle area 8 years ago. Although we miss the family we left behind we feel very blessed to live in such a beautiful place with so many opportunities and adventures. I hope to share our experience with others of what it’s like to play, eat and breathe in the Northwest.chiccamhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/07863138514023519863noreply@blogger.comBlogger61100tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1568285114960929682.post-79291990426769825602009-04-20T18:08:00.000-07:002009-04-27T18:50:31.727-07:00<div align="center"><a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_zgAgQrJxbb0/Se0cweCcTZI/AAAAAAAAAEc/DjWy41BaFkA/s1600-h/Tyler2.jpg"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5326945553271770514" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 400px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 291px; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_zgAgQrJxbb0/Se0cweCcTZI/AAAAAAAAAEc/DjWy41BaFkA/s400/Tyler2.jpg" border="0" /></a> I love the way children see and express art. That's one of the reasons why I volunteer at Tyler's school as an Art Docent. I believe every child's work is a master piece that should be displayed. </div><div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/1568285114960929682-7929199042676982560?l=nwmomofboys.blogspot.com' alt='' /></div>chiccamhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/07863138514023519863noreply@blogger.com2tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1568285114960929682.post-15399686063638533632009-04-20T16:52:00.000-07:002009-04-27T18:51:44.234-07:00<a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_zgAgQrJxbb0/Se0K6BGvOJI/AAAAAAAAAEM/Z6LwJN4Lmso/s1600-h/Tyler.jpg"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5326925926094551186" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 304px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 400px; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_zgAgQrJxbb0/Se0K6BGvOJI/AAAAAAAAAEM/Z6LwJN4Lmso/s400/Tyler.jpg" border="0" /></a><br /><div></div><br /><p align="center">Tyler's interpretation of Van Gogh's Sunflowers</p><div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/1568285114960929682-1539968606363853363?l=nwmomofboys.blogspot.com' alt='' /></div>chiccamhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/07863138514023519863noreply@blogger.com1tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1568285114960929682.post-2555220320011803962009-01-03T18:10:00.000-08:002009-04-27T18:53:56.985-07:00<a href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_zgAgQrJxbb0/SWAbHxK89aI/AAAAAAAAAD0/ZQyRk6KJ0O4/s1600-h/Copy+typrof.JPG"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5287255782805271970" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 370px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 400px; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_zgAgQrJxbb0/SWAbHxK89aI/AAAAAAAAAD0/ZQyRk6KJ0O4/s400/Copy+typrof.JPG" border="0" /></a> Ty tagged along with the big boys to enjoy the last <span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_0">Seahawks</span> home game of 2008.

Tyler and Dad insisted on getting out for a photo opportunity while I waited anxiously with the car running.

We didn’t stick around to see the consequences.</span><div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/1568285114960929682-4308601346963646728?l=nwmomofboys.blogspot.com' alt='' /></div>chiccamhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/07863138514023519863noreply@blogger.com5tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1568285114960929682.post-12522306179163678612008-09-19T11:07:00.003-07:002008-09-19T11:31:04.073-07:00<div align="left">Jason won't go anywhere without his crocs...I love them because they're easy to clean and put on.
