Shiner

Last Wednesday Sam had an unfortunate run in with the corner of our coffee table. It was terrible and within seconds he had an enormous goose egg forming on his eyebrow.  We just knew it was going to get worse before it got better and we were right.  Sam is sporting an crazy black eye these days.  In fact, not only is his eyelid a deep shade of purple but his temple is a nice mosaic of brown, green, purple and yellow.  He has gotten a lot of comments and we have told him he can just respond "you should see the other guy"

Daddy was in LA the day it happened so a panicked mom had to take a picture to text him for reassurance that all was OK.  The picture of this goose egg does not to it justice.  It was gigantic.  The next day poor Sam looked like his whole eye was swollen shut.  He was so glad he didn't have to go to school until Monday due to conferences and had some time to heal up. 

The bump went away pretty quickly but a week and a half later the black eye is lingering.  This picture is really tame compared to what it looked like at it's worst

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...
