Settelly's First Photo Shoot

So I am having way to much fun with this little girl!! Kale and I did a photo shoot of Settelly on Friday after we had gone over to the fruit stand and bought this beautiful bouquet of sunflowers. When we got home I was about to take pictures of the flowers and then remembered that Settelly has a little sunflower outfit and how cute she would be next to the bouquet. So I set up my black background went out to the shop and found some of Bryce's construction lights and Kale and I went to town on photographing Settelly, Kale made a great assistant!! We took so many pictures trying to hopefully get a few that would turn out and were surprised at how many did turn out beautifully and then to try and narrow them down, oh my!!! I think there are 49 in this slide show!!

Freestone Family Reunion

We had so much fun at my family reunion this summer, all our family came!! We stayed over in Manzanita and we all had beach houses right next to each other and we partied for a week straight!! The reunion was Friday-Sunday and we had a huge Pirate treasure hunt on Saturday for the kids at the Nehalem Bay, it was great everyone had parts and there was an actual trunk filled with treasure that was hidden in the forest, the kids loved it!! Each family was presented with a beautiful family book that my Aunt Julie had painstakingly put together, complete with bio sketch's and a cd of my Grandfather James B. Freestone playing his accordion. What a treasure that will be to us all. We had some great fun and adventures from train rides to 5 mile hike over Neakhanie Mountain, Kale and Settelly did that with me and my Mom, Dad and brother Brendan. We had so much fun at the beach there and made some lasting memories with all our family there!! Below is the slide show of our adventures!!!

Fun Pics

This is Bryce and Settelly's little trick! Bryce holds her out on his hand and she is so strong that she can hold her self sitting up, she loves to do this, she's always smiling at Bryce when they do this!!

Kalester loves to take bath's, if there was one thing I wish that I could turn off in our house it would be the bathroom water! Kale is always in the tub, I turn around for two minutes and he's in there with the door locked, little rascal. He was so excited that I put Settelly in the tub with him, he was so cute, he washed her with her little wash cloth!! Settelly loves to take baths too so I imagine they will be little partners in crime!! Rub a dub dub there's two babe's in the tub!!





This was a cute pic that I took of her a few sunday's ago, Brody suggested putting her in her Bumbo seat so we put a blanket over the top to add a little contrast!! We love our Bumbo seat, Thanks Jenny and Aunt Jan!!

Baby Talk





Settelly was so talkative this day, we sat on the couch and just chattered at each other. Kale was so cute he came over with a big smile and says "Baby sister talk" ? It's so cute to watch my boys with their little sister, now if only they could be sweet like that with each other, oh well, life is Good!
