Cannon Beach fun

Taking a walk with my girl





Who wouldn't want to pull up a chair and relax on this porch?

Holy cow

How sad that the last time I posted was December 15th? So we had Christmas (fun) New Years (fun) which included a late night walk with the kids and dog along with some noisy pop its to annoy our neighborhood.  Don started at Chemeketa Community College on the 9th and has been doing really well. Going from 9 words a minute to 30 isn't something to be ashamed of.  We went camping mid month and had an amazing time. We went for five days and four nights, it was in the low 30 and sometimes upper 20s so we had a lot of fires and had to refill the propane tank on our furnace twice. The last night we were the only ones in the campground. Our outside water hose froze the first night so it got its very own tarp and heater for the rest of our stay and worked great. The site we had was backed up to a huge amount of forest so the kids would disappear for hours with their walkie talkies and pretend guns. I wish we lived somewhere that they could do that more often.  We played football and soccer in the huge fields, went on many walks and thoroughly enjoyed ourselves.  I am continuing to do a lot of sewing and embroidery and hoping to do some quilting for our trailer this spring.  Um, that's all for now but hey its something right?
