tiny desk concert featuring rocco & rye.

welcome to our at home physical therapy gym.

it's not actually easy to wrangle all the kids for a group easter shot.

only the die-hards are ready to dye 3 dozen.

a lot of folks are ready to dye an egg or two...

the egg and spoon race is serious business.

we made good use of the occasional sun breaks.

intermittent rain showers = indoor easter egg hunt.

another room full of brunch enthusiasts.

easter brunch at nat & erin's.

so ready to catch that ball.

you don't need a lot of yard to have a lot of fun.

celebratory dinner with morgan & jesse.

i want to pinch all those cheeks.

morgan came to visit from portland and we promptly put her to work in the kitchen because that is how we do.

first train in the new station.

capitol hill and u-district light rail stations opened this weekend. 30,000 people showed up to ride the train, yet we managed to make it look like we're the only people in the station!

what is even happening in this shot? who knows but annie thinks it's hilarious.

everything's better with a ukulele.

chatting with selma, eating some chips.

riley has no interest in potlucking when there are ball-sports to be played.

so many choices at the taste of TOPS potluck.

two feverish days spent sleeping on the couch.

all sounders all the time.

jake and sandy are thinking of moving to seattle. so obvs we needed to show them around our living room and get in-depth with kale's magic cards.

sometimes watching top chef can be very stressful.

and speaking of beds... someone just got their own bed nook, because almost 11 years old that's why.

everyone agrees, calvin's bed is the place to be.

parkgoers.

looks like it's laundry-folding-o'clock.

kale's friend ewan is like an honest to goodness pirate in that shirt.

rare 'hair tucked behind the ears' moment captured on film.

full rain gear for the youth jail protest, but then the sun came out because obvs the weather opposes the youth jail too.

artists/ architects/ designers (& poopchicks) against the new youth jail!

selfie with benny and katrina's torsos.

sometimes you get lucky and your parents pick you up from school so you don't have to ride the bus home.

our beloved gee geed has just passed away. rest in peace, sweet lady, you will be missed.

well the shot might be crooked but at least everyone is looking at the camera.

nothing like a ten month old to make your kid look giant.

swagger > 10,000.

a lot of focused attention when it's time to cut the mini-donuts.

this is a group that's always up for a little b-ball.

mimi got a birthday bike.

those branches are not just going to cut themselves up in to tiny pieces perfect for composting.

street soccer, portland style.

bedtime story time.

northwest kids be like - rain, what rain?

turns out kale literally cannot even with that baby davis.
