PCC Natural Market

Last week we went to PCC Natural Market in Redmond for a store tour with our mom's group.  I had never been there before and it is quite the place!  The food and produce there is fabulous (and all organic / natural).  Sam loved getting a peek at all the secret places (mainly the door where the trucks deliver the food and the huge walk in freezer full of delicious ice cream) and Cole loved the goodie bag we got at the end (filled with apples and oranges).  

Before we left Sam was able to play "cashier" on a real till with some real food.  He loved it and took his job of scanning items and printing receipts very seriously.  I didn't think Cole would be too interested to try but he marched up to the register, climbed up on the apple crate and got to work.  The kid knew exactly what to do and scanned each item by himself. I guess that is the advantage of always having an older brother to watch.  

After the tour we did a little shop for some items we needed as we were having friends over for dinner the next evening.  It was then we found the the best find of the day - some island coconut ice cream that is to die for (and made not far away at Snoqualmie Ice Cream). Yum.

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...
