june 2016 misc.

And to finish off June we have ...

(There really is a lot in this post, but since they were all pretty much just fleeting moments here and there, I decided to include them all together.)

Kevin chillaxing with Mae and Gracie! 

Grandpa Jacobs visits and Brooks and Joe score with a trip to Menchies!

We get to celebrate Kevin and Grandpa Jacobs on Father's Day:-). Love these dads!

I spend some time with Joe on a field trip to Old McDebbie's Farm (http://www.oldmcdebbiesfarm.net).

(He was so excited about catching a fish.)

(And just completely loved this place.)

(In fact, he still talks about going back!!)

Brooks and Joseph cool off in the fridge before church;). 

Joseph goes Beast Mode with his big bros.

Porter gets a little colorful with a school color run. 

These guys perform the bedtime wrestling match pyramid.

I spend some more time with Joe on another great field trip; this time to Saltwater State Park. 

Kevin performs his 4th (??) wedding--or in this case, ring ceremony--for our wonderful family friend and her new husband!!

Mae has a little fun in the sunshine:).

And some more fun with one of her besties. 

Brooks takes on and defeats Cable Line (kinda a rite of passage in our house!!), and gets rewarded for it with Crown Donuts.

Then he gets a little wet during our cold and cloudy field day (typical Seattle). 

Heidi, Abbie, and Grandma Dueck visit!!!:-)

And get to attend Porter's multi-stake church youth pageant with us. 

Mae does awesome in her dance recital!

And Mae and I have so much fun putting on a baby shower for an amazing and well-deserving friend!!

I think I pushed the line a bit with this one, but oh well, time to move on!:)

I've been meaning to update our blog layout with the new family pictures we had taken in November. But since I'm not going to get around to it anytime too soon, I thought I'd include a couple with this post. Aren't ' they cute! The crazy part, though, is that as much as I LOVE these pictures (thanks to McKenzie Goff), they will already be outdated as of September. Here's why ... Dueck baby #5 Arriving September 24 th 2010

april 2018 misc.

And to finish off April, we have ...  Earth-Day excitement! Porter's promposal to this sweet girl!! Which involved singing to her (with his bro. and buddies) in front of about 75 surprised onlookers. Happy Birthday to G-ma Loo:-) And sunny family day at the park ... Looks like the man bun is still going strong!;)

Baby Joseph

Another little miracle, Joseph Benjamin Dueck , arrived in our family September 5 th , 2010 at 3:23pm. Of course, every mom describes the birth of her children as miraculous--I know, I feel that way about each of mine--but in this case Joseph's healthy arrival really did turn out to be something of a miracle. But before I get into the story, I have some catching up to do since I haven't blogged at all about this pregnancy. So ... Here's me on the first day of school which was just two days before Joseph was born. Since I was taking pictures of the kids, James decided I needed one as well. I'm actually glad he did, because I had been meaning to get a picture of my baby "bump" for days if not weeks and hadn't gotten around to it. Of course, I thought I still had plenty of time to make it happen. And just very quickly, I have to throw out some highlights from this pregnancy which for some reason all have to do with Mae ... Mae telling me (during the first tri...
