Imogen turns two!

Imogen and I spent the day playing with her many new toys (thank you!), checking out 'Toddler Tuesdays' at the local amusement park, and having pizza and an ice cream sandwich once Dad came home.  It was a very special day.

Imogen's birthday party

Imogen's birthday party yesterday was a huge success.  We celebrated with Micah and Declan, who also turned two, and spent the morning playing on the playground, singing along to Joel's guitar, and going to town on birthday doughnuts.

(When presented with her doughnut, Imogen directed me "down", as in 'I'm not interested in the candle or the wish, please let me start eating chocolate.')

2nd Annual Camping Trip

We camped on Mount Hood with the Laneys and the Davitzs last weekend.  Last year, we were only brave enough to go for one night, but this year we survived two.  The kids had a blast and the all four Newells came home and napped for three hours.

And for comparison's sake: a couple shots from last year's trip.  Check out the babies!
