More Pictures from Lynden

Okay - I had hundreds of pictures so I picked a few to show you and fill in what was going on . . .

On Thursday after surprising Chelsea, I went over to Tasha's house and we went to the mall to do a little shopping. . . . Tasha and I did all my clothing shopping in 3 hours! We also met up with Tasha's friend Jessica and her little one at the mall - they were both a great help in finding maternity clothes. Below is Brock running - man can he move now! Keeps all of us on our toes!

Aren't they too cute! On Thursday night Shannon took me up to Dave's property! Very Beautiful, if you haven't seen it yet you should! Then Dave took us to dinner at a Steak House in Everson, Washington - sorry guys I can't remember the name but it was really good!!
Shannon, Chelsea and I went to lunch at Red Robbin - very yummy!! Then we went shopping at the mall for a few last things!!
On Saturday morning Mom and I worked to prepare all the food and decorations for Chelsea's Graduation Party at my parents house. I had the chance to see a ton of people I haven't seen in a long time as well as all my relatives on all sides of the family. After the party we counted over a hundred people came to congradulate Chelsea!! Below are a few pictures of those who showed up!

Uncle Blake and Chelsea
The Lynden Lions had a great year this last year - as the sign states they were Football, Basketball and Tennis State Champions!! Chelsea was on the Varsity Tennis team and got an award for Most Inspirational - as some of you know she traveled many miles to support her team at districts and state as well as bake cookies for the team (the day after losing a match)!!
Chelsea is a big fan of pictures - she created the two poster boards of her growing up and also had a great idea of putting pictures on the top of her cap!
Quite a few of her friends showed up for her party too!

Jake, Stacey, Brittney, Jill and Chelsea
Everyone!
Brock found the stool in the bathroom during the party and was very content just playing on it for a long time!
On Sunday Tasha, Trevor and Brock drove me up to Canada for our cousin Bennett's 1st Birthday! We followed Brent, Marcia, Aunt Esther, Grandma and Grandpa Crabtree up there.
They had a great BBQ with probably 15-20 other kids running around and the Crabtree side of the family. The theme was Fire Trucks! And Uncle Brent and Uncle Loren made home-made ICECREAM!! It was really delicious! They even had a pretend fire truck and pinata for the kids.

Bennett and Brock playing!
On Monday I watched Brock for Tasha - thankfully Shannon came home after work to help me!Brock wasn't too sure about this crazy lady watching him, taking pictures of him and putting him to sleep!!
Shannon would bounce him on her yoga ball and he would just crack up!!

This is one of my favorite pictures - he looks at you like he knows he is just the funniest kid in the whole world!!

Oh the BROOM!! He loves the broom and it would keep him entertained for a long time! He kept sneaking it out of the pantry. . . . like mother like son!
