R. J., Shanna & Zachary, with a few pups and the big dog - a member of our family. The big chocolate Labrador's name is Luna Woodstock - we call him Woody.
R. J. in his goofy hat doing a some kayaking at a family reunion with Zachary.
Zach cuddling his new cousin. This little guy immediately became "Bubba" because his sisters a bit older than him could not say "brother." We still call him Bubba.
Here we are at Disney Land. It was lots of fun with our three-day passes.
Zach and his Grandpa Randy are sledding on a hill outside of town. This was a day with Grandpa and Grandma - Shanna's parents.
This is a family self-portrait on a day we were out checking out some local waterfalls.
Zachary loves swim lessons! No matter how cold the outside air is, we have attended swimming lessons in practically winter weather.
Shanna, a niece (Darby) and Zachary doing a totem pole? Not sure, but the kids were having a great time!
R. J., Shanna and Zach on an observation deck next to some local waterfalls. These are falls are gorgeous especially when the water level is high!

Zach is riding a wave onto the beach on a boogeyboard that his dad, R. J., helped him catch! Whoo-hoo!
Zach's first Pinewood Derby as a Cub Scout - March 2007. He was completely surprised that he got 2nd place...his car was a winner! His dad helped him with this one. He loved every minute of it!
This is a picture of Zach with his cousin Darby - she is like a little sister. They are close and love spending time together! She is such a little sweetheart!
Zach is using Shanna's kitchen gear to carefully look at his dig site in our back yard. A future paleontologist? We don't know, but it wouldn't surprise us if he does something with science. The kitchen gear has officially been donated to Zach's
All litters of puppies that come along...Zach is their favorite chew toy. Maybe it's because he is so lively! Looks like the chocolate loves his ears.
Zach put his clothes on Woody, our chocolate Lab and being such a great sport, he posed for a picture. Shanna is trying to get Woody to look at the camera, but is too busy laughing herself
We finally got a serious snow storm, winter 2008. One that required a snowblower! And Zach of course wanted to make sure he was on the receiving end of the blower! R. J. and Zach are definitely buddies and we have a live snowman!
R. J. and Zach attended a professional baseball game while we were visiting family in California - they had a terrific time!
Here are R. J., Shanna and Zach at the ocean soaking wet! We had a terrific time. The water was a blast! There were riptides that day, so we were in and out as the lifeguards instructed.
Grandpa Randy has a boat and the grandkids love to ride. Zach is no exception! He is sitting in the front and getting ready to feel the wind in his hair as one of his uncles is behind the boat on a wakeboard.
Zach and R. J. opening up their Christmas presents - new fishing poles! The wrapped box almost drove both of them crazy! They haven't used the poles yet, but it won't be long now.
R. J. is definitely a character! He deliberately went out and picked up this nasty smelling seaweed and put it on himself!
Zachary and his medal after playing in our local basketball league.
