The Greenleaf Boys
We enjoyed each other's company in different spots around the city throughout the week. We spent some time at The Children's Museum and Seattle Center, where Finn took his very first carousel ride with his dad. Clay said Finn had a huge smile on his face during the ride, but his eyes were wide and shifting back and forth as if he was trying to focus on something....anything! Carousels make me dizzy too, little buddy.
Koen measured himself up to Big Bird. Keep eating that spinach, dude.
Finn and Collin logged some serious bonding time.
Space Needle!!
Just a bunch of kids, horsin' around...
We played dodgeball at Jump Sky High, an awesome place filled with all the trampolines you could ever ask for! Such a great time.
Brother on Brother: the final survivors of the round.
Finn was too little for the trampolines, but that didn't stop him from jumping in Papa's arms!
Hey! There's the Space Needle again!
Nana & Papa lovin' on Finn
What better time for family photos than when we have
1) amazingly beautiful weather, and
2) the whole family in one place at the same time.
More horsin' around.
I tell you what...it's a lot harder than I thought it would be to capture a photo of nine people simultaneously airborne!
Koen saw a new point of view at the Olympic Sculpture Park.
Nope, this is not the mystery Greenleaf family member,
but a guy panhandling on a downtown corner. He was going above and beyond the competition, however. Check out his services offered ('with or without teeth'). Hysterical!!
The favorite time of day around any Greenleaf household is 'nap-thirty'. This was a common sight to see and obstacle to step over at our house this past week.
And then there was the big day. In true tradition, the kids got new jammies on Christmas Eve. As a kid, I was always so excited to get new jammies on Christmas Eve, even though they didn't help me fall asleep any faster that night!
Finn loved unwrapping presents on Christmas morning, all the brightly colored ribbon and crinkly paper!
Unfortunately, once he had the gift in his hot little hands, all he wanted to do was eat it.
Shandy made a pretend beard and mustache for Koen,
so that he could be Uncle Collin's look-a-like. Pretty funny.
The week was fabulous and flew by all too quickly. We had a lovely time and miss everybody already! Thanks for coming Nana, Papa and Devin!
Merry Christmas to all!!

What a COOL family! I am so thrilled that we created it. If we accomplish nothing more on this earth, with kids like you we made the world is a better place. Mama and Dad.
