Yellowstone, Tetons, and Jackson Hole!

Here are some images from our trip to Yellowstone, Grand Tetons, and Jackson Hole this week. I will post more pictures soon. We had a blast, and the scenery was amazing. We even had two close encounters with grizzly bears!

Family fun on Sunday!

Here's some pictures from our romp through the wildflowers at Flaming Geyser State Park. The kids had a blast with all of the flowers, and watching the airplanes circling in the sky. It was another lovely weekend in Washington!

Aren't these kids adorable? I guess I'm a little biased. But I love these two!

GO RED WINGS! Saturday night is HOCKEY Night!

Happy weekend everyone! We're enjoying watching the Wings stomp on the Penguins in Game 5 of the Stanley Cup. One more to go.......Let's Go Wings!

Happy Sunday!

Hope you had a rockin weekend! The weather was awesome in Seattle, and we had a blast with the kids this weekend! We took them to see UP! (new Pixar movie) yesterday, and we had a blast!

Saturday T-Ball Madness!

Welcome to baseball season everyone! I thought I would add a hodge podge of pictures from one of Josh's T-ball games. He still loves to hit, but we are still working on his fielding. We haven't mastered the idea of being ready for the ball in the field yet, but I'm sure it will come in time. He's a fan of Ichiro, and he always says that he tries to field the ball like Mr. Suzuki from the Mariners. Too bad I can't get the kid hooked on a good Brewers or Twins player yet. Still trying though!

Happy Summer! Be back again soon.

Josh sings, "Take Me Out to the Ballgame" at M's Game

Fun at the Mariners game! We got to see Ichiro hit two home runs as the M's beat the Red Sox!

and Josh made his singing debut:

I want to ride my bicycle

Beans on wheels!



Hey there. Trying to blog a little more. Hope everyone is having a good week! Looking forward to the weekend here at the Pudwell house. Big weekend of T-ball. Josh and I are heading to the Mariners-Red Sox game tomorrow night. He's super excited to go to a "night" game, and the little man has been practicing singing "Take me out to the ballgame" every night before he goes to sleep. I hope he can last until the 7th inning so we can sing the national pastime's favorite anthem. Can't wait to have a nice father-son bonding night!

Happy Mom's Day, Yo.

OK, I finally have returned with a new posting. I apologize for the delay. I thought that I would retire, and then unretire, and retire, and then unretire again. Oh wait, I guess I think I have been watching a little too much Favre news. My bad.

Well, I wanted to pass along my special Mother's Day edition! Happy Mother's Day to all the Moms out there, and especially to the important women in my life. Thank you, and I love you very much. I hope your day was wonderful!

We had a great day hanging out on the homefront. Started with a 5am shoot in downtown Seattle, a little church, and then some gardening.

I hope you enjoy the pics. We'll see you again soon. Think Spring =)!

Here's my lovely bride (jumping for joy on her day)!!!

JOSH MEETS ICE SKATING......

We went to Suncadia Resort in Cle Elum, WA last weekend with Grandma and Grandpa Garms. Josh got to go ice skating for the first time, and was pretty scared at first. But he got the hang of it, and had a blast.
