We made it home to CA

Thought I would give an update to how we are doing. We made it back to CA on Sept 16th. After two hours of helping Todd clear the living room of furniture and boxes the boys and I were rescued by my good friend Jennifer. We spent the week in Paradise CA playing with her 3 kids. The boys loved her large back yard and lots of play equipment. We have pulled out all the carpet in the house, It smells so much better now, and are having a new air/heating unit installed next week. We are still trying to agree on carpet but hope to get that picked out and installed soon. Ryan's birthday was on Sept 24th. We had a nice dinner and then went to 31 flavors for ice cream. We are celebrating both the boys birthday's with family and friends Sat. Look back for pictures. Not too much else to report other than I miss Pendleton Dearly. I look forward to a visit in March of o9. 

Ryan and Jaiden playing with Owen, Emma and Nathan Ward at their house in Paradise CA. 

We stopped by Crater Lake on the way home. It was so pretty! Ryan really liked telling Daddy how the volcano exploded and then filled up with water, after Mom had explained it to him. It was nice to get out of the car and walk around a little.

Round-Up Adventures!


We have had a full schedule of Round-up activities and the weekend isn't even over yet. We enjoyed the Rodeo, BBQ and Happy Canyon show on Wen and a full day of Carnival on Thurs. The Boys loved the Ferris Wheel and the fun house. Papa and Grandma Nobriga bought them new cowboy hats and man do they look handsome! I will miss this town when we leave. It has such Character.

bumper cars



This became the boys favorite thing to do on our back deck. They both would laugh so hard!

Pirate Party!





We had a Awesome Birthday Party for Jaiden and Ryan with all their little friends here in Pendleton. The highlights were hunting for treasure and having pirate fights with foam swords. Jaiden especially loved walking around and saying "ARRAAGH! Pirate Captain!" Thank you to everyone for coming and helping us celebrate!
