Silly Hammie






Hammie has taken to burying his bones out back. He is what 11-yrs now and this is very new for him since being with us. Here he is nudging it under the playhouse/fence area. The other is his nose after the fact. Silly Hammie.

Multnomah Falls






We took a trip today and spent the morning at Multnomah Falls. We then toodled on over to Bonneville Damn and went to the Fish Hatchery.

The falls were beautiful! It was cold on the way to the bridge and was icy around one of the bends. We soldiered on though and had some of the best laughs going over the ice. There was Jack's favorite part when Phillip was carrying him and the stroller and started sliding backwards when Mama caught them both. Never hurts to wear a smile. RJ took a friend with him and it made the whole day much more enjoyable for all.

We saw a 10ft Sturgeon at the hatchery, he ways over 450lbs and is ugly as sin. We fed the trout and saw where they grow the eggs and had a great time watching them swim. How easy it is to entertain boys, all you need are sticks, fish and enough shade to keep them cool and enough sun to keep them warm.

RJ had a reading at school for his class' Poetry Night.
The performance pictures are fuzzy and dark so you can see him practicing;)

Zoo Babies




New elephant baby-Sam


We took the boys to the zoo today. It was foggy most of the morning and the sun finally came out the last little bit we were there. No crowds but my it was brutally cold. RJ had a hand at the camera today so here are his pics. Yes, I am proud!
