Afternoon Walks

Simply put, it has been beautiful here the last few days and we have been enjoying every minute of it. When we don't have afternoon plans, we make a point to take Jasper for a nice walk after everyone is up from nap. On our last walk, Sam told me he wanted to take the camera and take a few pictures of what he saw. He actually did not bad and really enjoyed himself. Here are a few of his shots with his commentary below.

"wow this tree is really tall. It goes up to the sky"

"Oh, I just took a picture of my shoes"

"Please stop so I can take a picture of these pretty flowers"

"S T O P spells stop. There is a stop sign!"

"Jasper is walking on her leash very nicely today"

"All those flower petals look like snow"

"I am trying to take a picture of myself but I don't know how"

"It is a beautiful sunny day out today"

Such a sweet and goofy little boy. I can just hear his patter as he takes his photos. And I must say not bad photos for a little guy. I love the one of his shoes and the picture of self of course. Give him a big hug for me.

Sun River and Portland for Mid Winter Break

Drew had a conference in Sun River OR this past winter and we made the call to tag along for a little vacation.  Things were slightly dampened by the fact that it appears Cole has developed car sickness since the summer. Ugh.  The drive was so long! However, it was worth it in the end and we had a wonderful time relaxing in an amazing little chalet, enjoying the snow, sitting in the hot tub, sledding and skating!  Couldn't have asked for more fun!  A stop at our favorite in Mt. Hood - El burro loco! A glass of wine after our 6 hour road trip turned into 10 hours due to car sickness!  Right before our Owl Walk.  We were told we could walk into the wood and hear the owls. What a bust!  3 cold and tired kids in the dark woods and no owls!  It's now a running joke in our home as the  tour guide kept 'hooting' trying to draw the owl's attention.  If we want someone's attention in the house we often hoot at each other now...

Packing for 2010

We have started collecting our Olympic gear in preparation for our trip up to Vancouver this weekend! The last Olympics we attended were the Calgary '88 games (Drew even preformed in the opening ceremonies) and we can't wait to be back on Canadian soil celebrating the big event again. Even though Sam is too young to really appreciate the Olympics, we are excited to show him the sights and get lots of pictures so he can look back and hear some good stories. At this point, our gear is ready and the funny thing is Sam has the most Olympic stuff out of any of us! Our family has worked hard to make sure that Sam gets a little piece of Canada even though he is not living there. We know that if Sam grows up in the USA, no one will need to teach him to enjoy his country, but since Canada is so much a part of us, we want to make sure he learns about that bit of him too! So in a few days we will head North and cheer for the home team. However, maybe we do need to get a little piec...
