Claire love to go scooting:)

Spring Has Sprung!

2009-04-05T15:52:00.001-07:00

What a beautiful weekend. Garrick and Claire worked in the yard all morning.

It looks fabulous. Fall is my favorite season but I do love when spring arrives and the lawn is mowed for the first time and the yard gets a facelift.

Enjoy!

Happy Birthday Ilona

Claire

2009-03-06T20:43:00.000-08:00

It has been awhile since I've blogged.

This Facebook craze has taken over. This is Claire at her best.

We were at Tanner Kneipp's 1st birthday party with all her friends. We are so blessed to have such great friends in our neighborhood.

Claire is almost 3 1/2, where has the time gone.

I hope to update this more often.

We are almost (cross our fingers) potty trained. All I can say is she has a mind of her own. Hmmmm.... wonder who she gets that from (oh yeah, me).

Let it snow, let it snow...

2009-01-22T08:49:00.000-08:00

Check me out. I am working on learning how to do slide shows.

Snow

Make a Smilebox scrapbook

Just trying my hand at some various picture sites. This one so far is very user friendly but you need to pay them a yearly fee to get the cooler stuff:) Watch for some slideshows in the future.

Christmas Thanks

Thank you to Zig & Korren

My New Kitchen

2009-01-03T14:28:00.000-08:00

I love my new kitchen from Lulu and Uncle Dave. I love it this much!

Thank you!

Christmas Morning

2008-12-27T21:33:00.001-08:00

Christmas morning was very magical. Since Claire hadn't heard Santa she was pretty sure he hadn't made it. But when we went downstairs to check it was apparent he had stopped by. She was so excited. The only thing she asked Santa for were cookies but she also found an easel and a hippity hop which she now uses to get all around the house.

She is also enjoying her new CD player since she can do it all by herself. Along with the microphone which has one volume, loud.

We've Got Snow

2008-12-20T11:24:00.000-08:00

The snow is fun but can "poke" your eyes when it is falling. Perhaps that is what they call sleet.

Arctic Blast 2008!

2008-12-14T10:07:00.000-08:00

Claire and Santa had a nice chat.

She would like cookies for Christmas.

Santa said he could swing that.

Claire's Fancy Haircut

2008-12-01T08:51:00.001-08:00

Claire loves getting her haircut but the holding still is a bit difficult.

Still a Beaver Believer...

2008-11-30T20:07:00.000-08:00

We shall never speak of this year's

Civil war game again but I am still

a Beaver Believer!

Yearly Check-Up

2008-11-30T20:02:00.000-08:00

I always get my yearly check-up.

This year I got nose spray (flu) to keep me healthy.

Halloween Bash

2008-10-26T17:02:00.000-07:00

We're finally that couple.

The football player and the cheerleader.

Somehow I still don't think we have it quite right.

Washougal Pumpkin Party

2008-10-26T17:00:00.000-07:00

Isn't she cute as a bug?

A ladybug that is.

The Pumpkin Patch

2008-10-20T14:39:00.000-07:00

We headed out to Sauvie's Island to get our pumpkins. We have 3 because Claire is 3. At least that is her reasoning. It is also the spot where Garrick and I had our first date 6 years ago and the rest is history.

The Princess is 3!

2008-10-08T05:57:00.001-07:00

We survived party number one. One more to go.

Claire had so much fun opening her "presenents."

Thanks to all the family for joining us for her special day. And a special thanks to Maddie for showing her the ropes of opening presents.

By the way, OSU Beavers beat USC!! In case you missed it. Meant to get some pics and video up about the game but no time and not quite savy enough to make it happen.

Dancing Fool

2008-09-22T11:57:00.000-07:00

She has really got the moves!

Go Beavs!

2008-09-14T17:38:00.000-07:00

We finally won a game. Our first home game of the season against Hawaii.

It was about 100 degrees but very exciting.

As Claire told us in the morning when we were getting ready for the game.

"I'm so excited!"

First Day of Preschool

2008-09-03T06:06:00.000-07:00

Claire had her first full day of preschool where she goes on the days I work.

Can't believe how fast it is going.

Hope you are all having a wonderful fall season. It's my favorite time of year.

Go Beavs!! (That first game was just practice:)

Our Fashion Plate

2008-08-23T13:37:00.001-07:00

Just watching a movie:)

Mom's hairclip, Beaver sweatshirt and a flower bra.

What a fashion plate.

Potty Training

2008-08-19T19:54:00.001-07:00

Just thought we would show you how the potty training is going.

We’re getting there.

The Pacifier Princess

2008-08-15T15:13:00.000-07:00

It was a tough weekend a couple of weeks ago.

Garrick took the bull by the horns so to speak and exchanged the pacifiers for a car.

Luckily I spent the weekend in Pendleton at Karen Jenkin's 40th B-Day Party.

Princess Dust!

A gift from the Pacifier Princess.

The Pacifier Princess left a car!

Gail Is 40!

2008-08-15T15:04:00.000-07:00

I can't beleive I hit the big 40 this year. I still feel 21! I guess that's a good thing.

Except of course for the aches and pains of being older. Also those last nagging pounds aren't so easy to get rid of. But all in all I don't mind.

I kicked off this eventful year with a few of my close friends.

Here are a group of us from Pendleton, my home town. I graduated with 2 of the gals and Becky was just a year ahead of me. I feel blessed to have such good friends that I still get to see every now and then.

Welcome to our Blog!

2008-08-14T17:37:00.001-07:00

I think we are finally in the new milenium. The day and age of the blog. Yikes.

After several days and hours of trying to work with our web page we have decided to try a blog to share fun pictures and what's new with the Washougal Zakovics.

We'll see how I do so keep checking in with us to see what's new!
