Finally!

The computer has arrived, it is set up and ready to work. It was a long 2 weeks. I can't believe I was without it for that long. You would think that it would be a welcome break, but no, it was torture!

It's the first day of school for Joey and Stefan. We went to the school last night to meet their teachers. They both seem nice. Oh, here they come. Time to get them ready. Joey just mentioned he's nervous and Stefan chimed in, "Me too." Should be an interesting morning.

Computer Problems

FYI... My computer has a problem and will have to go to the doctor, therefore, I will not be blogging for a few days. See you soon.2

At the fair...

We love the Clark County Fair. We check out all of the animals, look at big machines and enjoy a milkshake. The kids loved petting the chickens, the massive bull and looking at the 3 day old piggies. There were also some rabbits with crazy hair this year. We all had a great time at the fair!




This bunnies ears were sooooo long. It was fun to watch him. See the bunny next to him... the brown one on the right. He was the craziest looking thing ever!

Out at the farm

Last Thursday we headed out to a concert on the lawn at Kruegers farm on Sauvie Island. It was a lot of fun. Good music, a picnic and friends. The kids went for a hay ride and enjoyed eating roasted corn... yum!

The boys eating... by the way, Joey even got up and danced. Stefan was totally into the band.

The clouds were amazing...

The dress

I've been wanting to sew for awhile and finally made it happen yesterday. I had to laugh at everything I've forgotten, but after awhile it all came back to me. Here is Emmi's new dress:

Playing in the Park

We spend a Friday evening (a week ago) visiting with wonderful friends in Sellwood Park. E who is now 13 (I used to be her nanny when she was 3!) dressed up Jeep in her top hat... too cute! All of the kids enjoyed playing frisbee and baseball in the field. Emmi loved the play structure. A GREAT evening in the park!

Happy Birthday!

Happy Birthday Oma!
We love you... have a great day :)
