Long year or short year?

So, here we are a year later, still in Whidbey Island. I must say it is getting better with the summer months and we are discovering new parks and trails and meeting new people , making new friends. Most of our VQ friends have moved on and are in different locations......and Jackson is 1 year old.....WOW! Time flies, but it's been a long year(translation Winter) here but everyone keeps saying it was the worst winter in about 20 years .....they said that the year before too so I am not holding my breath for the next two.
Okay, so Jackson is a year and saying mama (only in distress), daddys (while looking for daddy.) and dog with a really cute southern drawl--DAWG! Oh yeah, and he barks back at dogs....imagine that! I did have a puppy :)
Yesterday, while cleaning up the house ---daddy was vacuuming--- and keeping his eye on Jackson while I tooled about the house doing various things......when I heard this wonderful splashing noise. Keep in mind daddy knew the boy was in the bathroom.....so of course he thought it was funny when the boy was splashing in the TOILET!!! So we antibacterialed his hands and arms and moved on while daddy was still vacuuming and laughing :)

We had a big John Deere Bday party with friends and family. The little man had a fun week with Mimi and Paw paw and all his new toys. Cake was good, food was good , and fellowship was good so we had a great day and then went to another birthday party the next day. It was a big Memorial Day weekend but we all had a blast. I will post more pictures later of the little guy....
