July
Bellevue Half Marathon! Eric and Estella participated
in the Virginia Mason Team Medicine Marathon Seafair this year. They joined the half marathon runners on July 8, 2007
in Bellevue, WA. The weather was great and it was quite inspiring. Estella's a pro at this and I know this
won't be Eric's one and only race. Next time I want to join in!

Happy Birthday and Happy Babies! After the big accomplishment
of the marathon, we also decided to celebrate past, present, and future birthdays and baby showers all at one time.
That sure is a lot of presents and it's not even Christmas!


June
Remlinger Farms Strawberry Festival! Although I shouldn't
be walking, I suggested we check out the strawberry festival at Remlinger Farms. We've never been to the farm...which
has kids activities and rides. The girls had a lot of fun riding the rides (ponies, roller coaster, steam train, antique
car, pumpkin, etc. At the end we were able to pick strawberries. Looks like we were at the end of the season.
Don't let the little size (of the strawberries) fool you. As long as they were red, they were super sweet!


Sacto Visits! My mom, Mel, Phil and Paige did the
12+ hour drive to visit us for the July 4th holiday. They were so kind to transport a lot of baby essentials and
food. Thanks mom, Mel and Phil for bringing me goodies, cleaning the house, cooking me loads of food, bringing
me shopping, and just hanging out! It looks like you also brought a bit of hot Sacto weather with you!

February
The Burke Museum of Natural History and Culture! Ever
since we visited the Tacoma Art Museum the girls wanted to see dinosaur bones. We found out there were bones at the
UW Burke Museum. (Pictures weren't allowed.)

Build-A-Bear! Auntie Estella visited and treated
the kids to their first Build-A-Bear experience. Emma got a "wolf" dog (named Puppy) and baby. Audrey got a colorful winged
bear named Princess and Kuya Ethan got a Superbear.


Digging for Bones! Eric's friend John knew the girls
were into dinosaur bones and he was kind to buy these "digging for bones" blocks which the girls literally were digging
for bones. It sure was a messy activity but loads of fun.


Superpipe Classic Competition! #36 Eric Esteban.
This was Eric's second year competing. You get better every year. That's me with my lounge chair and magazine for the
long day ahead.

Visitors! George, Mike and Marianne hung out
with us during their visit to Seattle. We had dim sum during Chinese New Year (see the lion dancers) and they visited
Snoqualmie Falls. It was great seeing college friends again. Congrats to Mike and Marianne on their engagement.


Our jelly bean! The girls were there at our first
ultrasound and they called it a jelly bean. Okay...so this pic is actually our jelly bean "all grown up" (approx. 12
weeks).
Our Las Vegas/Disney/California Adventure! We took
a week long vacation and spent it with Lolo and Lola.....oh due to our spontaneity...the Disney Princesses.
