Halloween

We had beautiful weather for Halloween night. Kiley went out for a while, but had more fun handing out candy with me. However, Ellis stayed out for a long time and met up with some of her new friends from her new school. The girls had a blast!





A Trip To The Pumpkin Patch



We had great weather for the pumpkin patch. We went out to Sauvie Island.
The girls had fun on the cow tractor pull ride.We took a hay ride out to the patch.


The girls had the most fun on this hay pyramid.

This was the first year it was nice enough to carve our pumpkins outside.

Scary Soccer!!

This week was our last week for soccer. The team got to practice in their costumes and play a game against the parents, who also were decked out in costume.

This picture is for Auntie Resa. :)
Ellis was so cute. Brock was a bit on the scary side!!

Ok - it has been too long since my last post. The start of the school year was a bit crazy. I have updated the blog with three new posts. Enjoy! :)

The Beach

Last weekend we went to the beach. That was our first time there in a long time. The weather was beautiful! We spent a lot of time on the beach. Brock and I even got to surf! :)




We found a very cool hike. There was a beautiful stream and falls.



We ate our picnic lunch under the falls.


Then hit Tillamook, on our way home, for an ice cream cone.

Astoria

We went to Astoria to visit Nana & Papa. We stayed at the Holiday Inn Express. It was so much fun! It felt like a mini vacation. We spent most of our time in the pool.


This was our view from our room. Nice!

Ellis is a Brownie

Ellis joined Brownies this fall and went on her first camp out last month. Ellis was very proud to get her first patch on her new vest!


I drove four crazy, LOUD girls to the camp.


They did crafts..


Played at the lake...


Told bedtime stories...


And hiked (in the rain)...


They were not so loud on the way home. I actually did not hear a word. :)
