Patrick's Golf Montage

We think we see several similarities in this video...and are pretty sure that this will be a part of his first Nike commercial after winning the Masters.

(For those of you non-golf fans, the music is the theme song to the Masters in Augusta)

Snow Day!

It doesn't take much to shut down Seattle...but today hit all areas! This was Patrick's first experience playing in the snow...he wasn't quite sure what to make of it.

Chicken Dance Patrick...I mean Elmo

we caught Patrick doing the chicken dance with Elmo. Of course by the time we got out the video camera he had caught on to how cute we thought it was so he played it up a little. I wish that you could pause real life sometimes so you can capture "ALL" photo ops! Oh well...this is still pretty funny!

Santa 2008

We made our annual trip to the Nordstrom Santa Lane in Downtown Seattle. We were not sure if Patrick would actually sit on Santa's lap, but much to our surprise he walked right over, gave Santa a big hug and then hopped up on his lap.

Afterwards we headed right upstairs to my office. I think that Patrick has a future as a Nordstrom Finance Manager!

Happy Thanksgiving

We spent Thanksgiving at the O'Brien house!

Happy Halloween!

Our Little Giraffe!

We thought appropriate that our "big" and "tall" (not so much :) )Patrick should be a giraffe for Halloween!

UW vs OSU

Our annual tailgate with our Oregon State Friends.

Tiger Woods in the Making!

Patrick has become quite the little golfer. The only problem...he swings left handed and try to find a set of plastic left handed clubs for someone who is 35 inches tall! He is a problem solver though...he just uses a right handed club and hits the ball with the wrong side of the club!

We will soon make this an outdoor only sport as he is becoming quite good!

Trip to the Pumpkin Patch

Can you find Patrick in this picture?

Trip to the Zoo!

Patrick had an In-Service day at School so we went to the Woodland Park Zoo!

Patrick loved the Hippos...they were sleeping when we went back the second time around and he stood at the fence and yelled "wake up hippopotamus!"

Husky Fun!

It is once again Husky season! The dawgs are again off to a rough start, but we still manage to support them every week. We are still tailgating from the early morning hours (6:30am) to the late hours of the night (10pm). Well at least the kids have fun :)

We Have a Blog!

So many of our friends and family are always looking for updates on Patrick so we decided to start a blog. Hopefully we will be able to keep this up to date and everyone can use it as a resource to see how our little guy is doing.
