Where we have been...

Nathan was in Tofino, BC, for 10 days. He was helping his younger brother build cabinets (kitchen and others) for the house he is building. While he was gone, the girls and I spent time at my parents house. It is harvest time there, so it is very dusty and looks like this.


The girls love to take bike rides. Here is K1 with Grandpa.


And K1 always asks Grandpa to make waffles when we are there. Here they are "helping" Grandpa...


After Grandpa and Grandma's, we headed up to Redding, CA, to visit "Three Miles In Inn." My college roommate, Christy, and her family live on 10 acres in Millville. They have a horse, donkey, sheep, chickens, cats, and lots of dogs. They just started breeding Boston Terriers. The girls had SO much fun. We went to the Turtle Bay Museum, which was a blast - very kid friendly. Here are some pictures of our time there.

Woot, Woot

Has anyone ever heard of this website? I read about it on someone else's blog and it looks like it could be very addicting for some people. Most of all - impulse buyers. Basically, they sell one item a day and when it is sold out, that is it, game over. You never know when they might sell out. Anyway, you can check it out for yourself.

Catching Up

Here are some pictures to show what was going on in August.



We met two of my brothers and their families at a park for K1's. This was our attempt to get all 6 grandchildren to look at the camera at the same time. Guess we will have to try again. Note to self, don't make them look into the sun next time.





K1 really liked her beautiful butterfly cake. If you are wondering why there is a hand on her head, last year, she almost burned her lips while trying to blow them out. This was our mode of prevention.



A2 and her cousin enjoying the park.







Just having fun at home as we always do. K1 wanted to show her cousins in Canada that she does have enough hair for a ponytail.
