Well we had a great weekend in guess where??? 
WALLA WALLA! That's right it was our first time back home home since April 10th! We celebrated our five year anniversary on the 8th, and it was so nice to be home for it. I feel like we are so backwards lately. Spending weeks away and then going home for our anniversary. It was a great weekend to be home because Walla Walla was having this huge balloon festival. At 630 in the morning they all lifted up and luckily we were waking up at that same time and were able to see them all in the sky. 
There were so many everywhere. We just liked this shot because there was a triangle shaped balloon!! Later that day we went to the fairgrounds where they had a lot of fun things for kids to do. Thomas loved the fingerpainting 
and the bubbles.
Grace liked the bubbles too.
This little one is 8 months old today and she is crawling like a maniac, getting into a sitting position, and also gets on her knees and stands up. Sad.

Nice digs. Wish you could stay home a little longer, but am sure you will have a great time in Portland. Really cute pics of the kids too! HOpe you had a great anniversary and Mother's day...we were reminiscing all weekend about your special day.
Gosh I forgot it was your Anniversary! Time flie! Glad you were able to be home for it. I love the quilt behind Grace's crib. Did you make it? So cute! I really like all the family pictures of all the places you've been down the side of your blog. Cool idea! Have fun in Portland. You seem to be able to have fun anywhere you go! Love ya!
Wow, has it really been 5 years since we went our separate ways from Raintree?! WOW. Happy Anniversary! Glad you guys could be home for it. Have fun it Portland! Maybe you'll bump into Erin!!
I cannot believe she is 8 months already! I love those balloon festivals and fun family activities. Nothing like bubbles and finger paint to make a successful outing :)
You totally cracked me up with your comment on my post. . .
That triangle one is so cool! Your kids are so cute!!! And congrats on 5 years!!
"Catch" with Roman is funny because for some reason he can not say that word, but when he tries to say it he very clearly and loudly says the "f" word!! So you can imagine the awesome looks we get when he says that in public :)
Wow, you guys have a crazy life!! It looks like a nice place you'll be staying in. Do they really start doing that a 8 months?? Crazy. I need to start preparing for that one.
Hey it was so fun to hang out with you in Boise even if you did kick my trash at Mario Cart! You'll be happy to know that Jake is starting to eat a little better so made Grace made a good impression on him :)
I love that picture of Thomas!! What a stylish little boy! Happy Anniversary too! What did you guys do? Glad you could be home for it anyway and go to the cool festival. Your Portland place looks nice! Much better than the last one I think. Love ya!
aaashley! your kids are soooo cute!
This is sooo late, but I couldn't write. Sing this, "happy anniversary, happy anniversary, happy anniversary, HOPE you had a great, great day!" I really am too cleaver for words. I think I am a little too rested.
HAppy 5 years! Wow and Grace is 8 mo. She is going to be 15 before you know it. looks like you had a great weekend.
I'm glad you got to be home for a while. the pictures are so cute. I love thomas' sunglasses in the first one. and grace's huge smile showing off her bottom teeth. what cute kids
It may sound funny but I want to go with you guys. I dig traveling around. (maybe not THAT much) I'm impressed with the Walla Walla Balloon Stampede it's cool huh! I CAN'T believe Grace is 18 months... REALLY???? WOW!
Oops What's for dinner aka Chy... haaa haaa!!! sorry about that ;0D
I am so jealous that you are in Portland. If you need any ideas of things to do let me know. Have fun in that great city.
Looks like fun! Happy Anniversary! I love how you take a picture and post it on the side of each place you have been. I love Grace's black crib. How cute!
Happy Anniversary! I'm so happy you guys got to go home for a minute and relax. It looked like a fun weekend to be there. I love hot air balloons, they're so cool! Hope you have a good week. Love you guys.
There is no place like home! Glad you got to see it. Hope your anniversary was great...you guys are an awesome couple (one of our very favorites!). I love Thomas ball cap, what a cute little man. And Grace is getting sweeter looking with every post!
Oh my gosh, I am so happy that you made it home for a little bit! I bet it felt good to back. Oh and Happy Anniversary!! 5 years is a big milestone! Congrats, congrats, congrats!!
Thomas in those sunglasses is so cute! You guys are all over the place. Hope that you guys had a great anniversary and couple days home. Isn't it crazy how fast these babies are growing up? I can't believe the Grace is already crawling! Addie just started scooting. I just wish that they would stay babies longer!
I love the picture of Grace and the bubble! Thomas in the shades is another good one! Congrats on five years. I remember you when you were a newlywed at Firehouse...how far things have come!
I'm sure I missed the post on why you guys are traveling so much, but it sounds exciting (and probably a little difficult with the kids). Your kids are looking just as cute as ever. I can't believe little Grace is crawling. Time flies. Happy anniversary too!
