Swinging!

Cap'n built a rope swing for the kids at the beginning of hunting season and everyone had a great time playing on it Saturday afternoon. He knew the kids would love it when he put it up but I'm not sure he would have guessed how much the big kids loved it too.

Evan and Hannah's Wedding

Image
Matt and had the honor of being invited to celebrate Evan and Hannah's wedding in Oregon and it was a beautiful weekend! It was the first trip we had taken alone since we went to the Florida Keys a few years ago and it was nice to get away. My whole immediate family was there so we didn't get a ton of alone time, but we did have our own Airbnb and got to have breakfast together each day. We got there on a Thursday and the rehearsal dinner was that night. Friday was our free day and me, Matt, Dad, Janet, Jennifer and Allison drove around to sightsee and did a few short hikes. We drove across the Washington state line to have lunch too. Everyone was pretty tired that night, but me, Matt, Jennifer and Allison went to a wine bar for a couple of hours at the hotel where they were staying and watched a musician  We wanted to do a hike that day that we did not have time for, so me, Matt and Allison left about 730 Saturday morning to do the 2 1/2 mile hike up to Multnomah Falls. Those ...

Winter Storm 2024

There are only a few weekends lefts of hunting season and last weekend Katie and I decided to go up to the camp with Matt and Lil for a night of it. Shanon and Jeremiah were in town and we wanted to visit with them and spend time with the rest of the family up there too. We only stayed one night to get back for gymnastics and work, but for everyone else, there was a lot of hunting and memories made.  Lillian had to miss Koy’s first tournament of the season, but there was no way she was missing hunting with her dad for that! We got back on Sunday and he came over to tell us about it.  The weatherman had been forecasting snow for a week, but that forecast changed to mostly ice by the time it rolled around. The kids were already out for MLK day, and we were pretty sure Tuesday would be out too since we wouldn’t get above freezing, but they ended up being out through Thursday. Some people didn’t mind driving on the ice, but I was not one of them! I stayed home so some of the girls...

Cousin Camp

Piper ended up getting to stay for 11 days and she and the girls had the best time. It was a last minute trip so we didn't have a big thing planned for each day like past years because we had to work, but they loved the downtime at the house together too. We did go to a movie, went to dinner one night and went to a movie, so we did do a few things. Of course there was lots of time at Vivette's and Piper was happy to get to feed the horses and she even got to ride twice  The highlight of the visit was probably the day we went to the lake for the 4th of July. They jumped off the deck, swam in the pool, went for a boat ride and ate burgers and hot dogs  We were thankful to Capn and Yaya for letting us go!  We also had a good time at fireworks at Cypress Baptist on the 2nd. Holly and Madison came to visit too and we got 2 nights with them while she was here  We were sad to see her go, but she had to get back to her horse and Matt and I had to get ready for our trip to Po...
