Sept 2017

My birthday weekend! We went to the beach and hiked Ecola State Park.


Gorgeous day in Cannon Beach!


And good thing Nicholas and Zach found some cell service.


David and Gabe thought it was warm enough to play in the water. 


Zach thought he was faster than Mike, but he wasn't.


Nicholas would rather read a book. 


Brooke had fun with my phone in the car. 




Zach's yummy breakfast for me, a day early. 


Presents...


And yummy Costco cake at Nissinens.

First day of school!
Brooke is in 6th


David is in 4th


Zach is in 9th


Nicholas is a junior


Driving to school. 2001 Honda CRV (Zach would rather take the bus.)


A nice layer of ash on the suburban from the Eagle Creek, Columbia River Gorge fire that burned 50,000 acres. 


Gabe is so excited to start kindergarten!


And now all my kids are in school!


Except for Lilly.  Lilly is at home with me. 


Gabe's first time on the bus.


And coming home from his first day!


Mike narrowly missed a head-on collision.  A car swerved into his lane, he swerved out of the way, but the car still scraped the back of his car and then hit head-on into the car behind him. 


All dressed up for a Cure Juvenile Myositis fundraiser dinner!


Steven and Cindy, Mike and me, Mindy and Garrett, Gabe and Dave (and her brother)

We drove with Aaron, Terri (and Joe) to Rexburg, ID to take Rosie her mission call.  She opened it (going to Michigan) and then we all went to the temple with her the next day.
