Cute, Funny AND Smart. . .

The whole package! Or at least I think so :-) Just another glimpse into day-to-day Matthew. . .

Oregon or Bust!

We just got home (well, Monday) from a week away in Portland, Oregon. We had an amazing time - the weather was perfect, we got to hang out with my brother everyday, the house we stayed at was wonderful and there was just so much to do! We went to the coast and visited Cannon Beach one day, the next we went and saw Multnomah Falls (beautiful) which is right off the highway and we hiked to the top of that, then we were able to have dinner with our friends Bret, Brandie and their son Tyler one night, walk around town and go to the zoo with Josh's old bandmate and friend Davey and his wife Briana one day, and we got to see my bro as a waiter at CPK several times! Matthew was a champ - he slept really well and took the flights great as well. We were truly blessed by this trip! Here are just a few (ok, so maybe more than a few) snapshots to let you in on the happenings of our vacation. . .

Fun, Fun, Fun!

Okay, so it's not the best clip - but I still think it's darn cute!

Congrats, David!

David, Josh's brother, is graduating from the Police Academy this Monday, July 7th. This past Thursday, they had a pride run that the whole family was invited to participate in down in PB/Mission Bay. It was fun to see them line up and go running on the beach walk, saying things in unison, etc! We took Matthew too, and had a great walk - though we didn't do the full length of it like they did. You can see the pics of that day below, which includes a pic of Matthew with Grandpa Eddie (finally!), Aunt Brittany, and some fun at the pool with Uncle David & soon-to-be Aunt Simone!

Photo Shoot!

Matthew's Grandma Sandy & Grandpa Eddie recently took Matthew to JCPenney for portraits - so much fun! Here are a few of our favorites.

Thanks Sandy & Eddie!
