Camping Season Has Started

Camping Season has began in the Vrieling house! We have Property in Lake Stevens where we park our trailer all year round. With Gas prices so high we can still afford to camp :) We enjoy all the activities they offer...Bingo, Golf cart parades, swimming, and so much more.

We had my brother and al my nieces and nephews along with friends and my parents go with us. We had a BBQ on Sunday with tons of family.

The highlight was on Saturday at the swapmeet I got to meet the Captain of the Cornelia Marie Phil Harris from Deadliest Catch. We found that he has a site not far from us. If you do watch that show...You should realy start!

Olivia is not a happy camper........
Matthew found a way to speed up the process of loading the truck...He got his sister's Dora 4-wheeler and then took my antique wagon from the flower bed and off he went....
How can one famly still have so much stuff!??
Carter John was so good! He was a champ...he loved it and did not cry at all.

Everyone ready for swimming!
Madison ( my Niece) sleeping in our trailer....

Bath time...she needed a bath everynight

Olivia's first love has to be Corn on The Cob

Emily having fun...


Matthew showing off his rad skills

She has to bring everything to the pool....her my little pony ( in her hand) just had to go swimming!

Can't wait for the next Trip...Hope everyone had a safe Memorial Day Weekend!

Girls Night Out

I have been really busy with field trips and kids and sun and my friends. Jenn turned 31 this month and we celebrated with a girls night out to Poppes for dinner & drinks. Jenn has been my bestfriend for almost 20 years! YIKES!

It seems just like yesterday she moved form Bellingham to Lynden and well if she tells you the story we did not hit it off really good...Come 7th grade we managed to be friends and more high school drama to follow we managed to remain friends...She will always be my best friend...

Carter John

Carter turned 3 months!! He is so sweet and very laid back. He has to be in order to keep up with us. He started to wake up 2 times a night to eat...We are trying to fix that. He loves his swing and started laughing outloud.

He can't wait to have his own room! Okay, we can't wait...maybe then every little peep won't keep me wide awake.

The flash gives him " crazy" eyes..... I tried to get him smilin...maybe next time

Extra! Extra ! Read all about it!

We are so Blessed to have had the Bellingham Herald run an article on our Business! Free advertising is always a good thing on the pocketbook. Business has been steady but as we all know we could sure use some increases.

I am sure proud of Jeremy! He has been training to be a bus driver for the Lynden School District. He should be able to do both. Both professions suit him so well.

Thanks for your support and referrals.

Wheww....

My Friend had asked me how my day was going...asking if it was crazy like always...I couldn't lie. It was heading that way by 8am....

Here was my response.....................

How is my day you ask!?? Well, I have fished out toys from the potty. Changed Carter 3 times. Ran my recycling out while the guy was stopped at the nieghbors...Watched him turn around just for me as he had already went by. I cleaned up a water spill and repaired a whoopee cushion. I changed sheets for Olivia. I ate a snickers bar for Lunch & Breakfast. Managed to sweep the floors and delete recordings while holding the baby. I made my bed! YESSSS!! I propped a bottle becasue Olivia was trying to undress herself to go pee and was leaking...Wheww...all by 1pm...Now she has decided no nap for today so I might go tinker in the yard...all the while wishing I was somewhere warm...My bed included.

What I forgot was we had family come by for a visit and to see Carter. I was in my PJ's The entire time. Spent 30 minutes looking for a binky. Called the repair man to find out why my Oven is broken &*%$#%&* That's How I feel about that. I wiped a snotty nose. Made lunch for Olivia ( Thank You Gerber for Mircowave meals! ) Fed the fishes...Half the container ended up in there so I am hoping that the filter is really good. Sent thank you cards. Played dress-up........
Wheww.....And they say I don't work.
Now Top that Carol Brady!

Big Girl Bed

We have been potty training here at our house. Liv knows how to go the potty and has understood the concept for about 7 months. We never pushed her because of the new baby and wanted her to adjust on her own. We have come to realize that if we didn't give her the friendly parent push she would never want to use the potty...So we decided to bribe her with a big girl bed! What an exciting time for her...I found her " big girl bed" at the consignment store and I had to buy it...WHY!?? If you know our Olivia she loves Cinderella ( Cinderellieeeeee) and I had money on my account. So after 2 days of telling her she had to wear her panties and go in the toliet we would bring in her bed... We brought it in and made it all up for her.

She has had a few accidents but stays dry at naptime...still training for night........

She loves the Spiderman cup....Everything else is all girl but that cup :)

Her hippo...Hello Kitty and that Spiderman ( She calls it her superman) Cup
