Beatin' The Summer Heat


Well it was hot as you all know last week, not like Portland triple digit hot but it was 85-90 here. So Peyton decided we should turn on the sprinklers and run through them. Then she thought it would be a good idea if I swung her through the spriklers by her arms. Then I decided to hang her by her feet in front of the sprinklers. She had a blast, "Do it again Daddy!!! Do It Again!!!"

Not So Wild Kingdom


Click on the hungry hungry Hippopotamus for some pictures of the animals we saw at the Oregon Zoo Tuesday. I think this one was on a diet, he was chasing down celery sticks. Peyton couldn't understand why the elephant "pooped and went pee" on the floor. We went with the, "He's (trust me, it was definately a "he") not potty trained like you Peyton" line. But it didn't work, because she talked about it the rest of the day.

My First Trip to the Zoo




Mom & Dad took me to the Oregon Zoo Today! I had so much fun checking out all the animals. It was a very long day, but definately worth it.

Trip To The Beach


We decided with the weather as nice as it was that we would take a trip to the beach. Peyton got to chase seagulls and pelicans. She got to hold her first jellyfish, actually a piece of one. And she got to hold various amphipods. Peyton was probably more occupied with finding broken sand dollars than anything else, but we had a great time.

Happy Birthday USA!


Here are a few pictures for the 4th of July. It turned out to be a great day. I was supposed to work all day, but my boss went crazy and sent me home at 2pm. So we spent the day together as a family and Peyton got to see her first fireworks show at Seaside.
