Papa drew a once in a lifetime bull elk tag in Nevada this year! It was super special for Will and Ryan to join their dad to help on the hunt! Will brought Chet along, who was super, super excited!! I'm so glad that Chet was able to go too! What an experience!
We spent Veteran's Day at a fun parade in Albany, boasting to be the biggest Veteran's Day parade in Oregon, and I believe it! The parade lasted for 3 hours!! But the kids didn't want to leave until the very end! They loved watching all the cool army gear, vehicles, army men, and getting candy of course! As soon as we got home, they started playing 'parade' where they went around (pretending to be army men) and I had to shake their hands and thank them for their service. :)
It was so much fun to have a Ladies Autumn Tea! Drink a spot of tea, dress up, eat delicious food, and of course, most importantly spend time together! It was lovely!
Miss Lily Jane and baby! She so sweetly carries a baby around with her most the time! The other day, I spotted her rocking baby back and forth while standing up! So sweet!
Miss Breonna and Miss Lisi...
I forgot to take pictures of the yummy food, but we nibbled on Tomato Basil soup, quiches with pimentos, and roasted red bell peppers, cumcumber sandwiches, pumpkin scones with berry butter, and for dessert, key lime tarts, mini pumpkin pie tarts, and rasberry swirl cheesecake bites! Yummm! I love autumn!!
We enjoyed a visit from Grandpa the first part of October! It sure is sweet to see how much Lily loves Grandpa! She's pretty good at wrapping all her sweetness around everybody's finger, and nobody seems to mind! She is a sweety! The boys and Grandpa are excitedly building a radio controlled sailboat together! Pictures to come....!
I love not having school on Friday's!! The kids and I headed up to explore the Portland Aquarium one Friday! They loved it!! There were lots of birds, fish, and the kids favorite was the sting ray tank!! You could feed them, pet them, and watch them swim by and splash you! It was great fun!
We have been so lucky to have nice sunny days into the fall season! What better way to spend the afternoon after school got out than ride bikes around! We love our favorite spot in town where they leveled the local airstrip and started developing for homes. Unfortunetaly, they ran out of funding, so now there are street signs, nice paved roads that no one drives and empty lots...perfect for us!
