Mannin' up...Jon Guddat style

This is Jon. I've been getting in the habit of jumping into the river after a run or a hike and today I just decided to do it for two reasons: 1. Because it's there. 2. Because I'm a man. Back in the day, I - along with Ryan, Dan and Josh - would go to the park to play football, impress girls and jump in the lake and river, so today was a trip down memory lane.

Jon and Adelyn with Blue Grandpa.

Addy and Daddy, knee deep in the lake.

Great job by Brittany capturing the moment.

Blue Grandpa and Addy Bear testing out the water at the river's edge.

Another great capture of a pure athlete in the zone.

18?!?!?! Back in the day it was YOU that had problems with girls at the pond. All I was doing was focusing on working out.........with my shirt off of course.

This is Jon. We celebrated Adelyn's 4th birthday party over the course of a few days. Parents party, grandparents party and kids party. She was very spoiled. Can't believe this girl is four! Addy Bear with her new Barbie Bike. Two lovely ladies... Getting ready to dig in... She looks like she's ready to hit the town in her new outfit. A big boost in her piggy bank! My two girls lookin' cute. I think she looks adorable in these two pics!

When Mommy's sick and Daddy's in charge...

Image
...this happens... Addy is potty training (quite successfully and very quickly I might add) so she's pretty much pantsless 24/7. She doesn't usually wear Brittany's boots, though. That's Addy again, wearing Delaney's wicked witch hat. Don't know where she got it. Delaney and her sunflower she's been growing since the last few days of school. It finally bloomed at the beginning of this week...and Delaney's wearing Mommy's boots now.

Quarterly update from KTown

Image
Spring sports with Delaney playing volleyball for the second straight year. This year was noticeably different as her league included fifth through eighth graders. Adelyn with her second year of softball. Again, a noticeably different level of competition. Delaney will eat anything, just like me. Food is fun, especially when you try new things. We're at the Crab Pot along the Seattle waterfront and we got a seafeast of salmon, crab, clams, mussels, shrimp, sausage and corn. It was deee-lish. Dee Dee and her shrimp...right before she ripped its head off to grub down. Kittitas day at the Mariners game. 80 of our closest friends from KTown in attendance. Took Adelyn and Brittany to Saltwater State Park. Adelyn loved the shells, crabs and the clams underneath the surface squirting water. On our way home, we got stopped on the pass for the roadwork blasting. Took the opportunity to snap a few pics of this beauty. Adelyn with my hat, a rain coat, pajamas, ten
