July birthdays are great!

The cabin gets a name sign!! And an address...

Todd & Caryn came up to tell everyone goodbye before they move to Buloxi!!


Everyone helped build the deck - even the prego-momma!

Aunt Caryn graduates and we head for the zoo!




We rode the gondola to the hospital (just for fun) and found this play area!
It was such a pretty day we could see three mountains! Rainer, St Helens & Hood!

The next day, we all headed for the Portland zoo! The girls stood in a big eagle's nest -
They crawled through a log -

Measured up to some really big bears -
And sat on a statue of a lion!

Favorite cabin activity? Reading, of course!


Deck 2010 part 1

Helping Omp fix the emergency hose stand.

Time to fix the deck rails...we took them all off, moved them over so they're 4 inches apart & look at how many were missing!



Part of the crew!

Next time...the front step railing!

More Christmas 2009

Sisters can have fun!


The very special ultlimate present from Emma (she picked it herself) to Ava... Sparkle Brightly! (She's a unicorn who sings & has a magic wand)

Emma's special message to Uncle Todd...using her new Bendaroos.

Opening gifts at Omp & Grandma Jill's...here's Todd & Caryn, Ava & Grandad & Grandma.

Look who stopped in for a visit...Grandpa Brad & Grandma Mary.

Here's Omp's special present...Brad made him a lamp out of an old Coleman Lantern.
Playing with new toys at the Cabin just after Christmas.


Momma got a dishwasher! Yay...3 weeks of doing dishes by hand was way too long for me! Thanks Daddy & girls!

This is what happens when Ava is given a red lipstick reindeer nose earlier in the day...she feels free to add the nose herself. Sadly that was one of my favorites. It took two new bottles of makeup remover to get this off...it was in her hair & her ears too. Ugh.
