Kelsey & Karly

Last weekend my nieces, Karly and Kelsey came to visit. We had such a fun time. We went to the beach on the foggiest day ever. Karly's dream of going to the American Girl store was fulfilled. We decorated Halloween cookies and made pizza. Abe had a lot of fun with the girls and it was fun that they could meet River.

pumpkins and tractors

So happy to be on the tractor ride.

River was moderately amused.

Chad and Abe were on the edge of their seats during the pig races.

What the hay!

I'm not sure who enjoyed the antique tractor show more between Chad and Abe. But I think it was probably Chad.

Abe spent a long time helping the goats get primped.

Train Ride!

Last weekend we went to the Harvest Festival at Underwood Farms. Abe was so much more into all the pumpkin patch festivities than last year and it turned out to be fun for everyone.

Afterwards we went to visit our friends the Lee's. We somehow convinced a babysitter to watch 3 two-ish year old kids, and we went out on the town.

Montana

After British Columbia, we got to go and visit our former LA buddies, the Pulsiphers, in Montana. We all picked up right where we left off, especially Abe and George, and we began to facilitate a friendship between River and Ed. The boys played with trains, went swimming and we did a lot of eating, and sitting around talking, and Ashley and I toasted to our birthdays of course. We miss them!

British Columbia

Here is a hodge podge of pictures from our trip to British Columbia. We rented a house just north of a town called Kaslo on Kootenay Lake. We had an amazing time there. In fact if you can't find us someday, check here - we might have moved.

These are the views from the back porch. Fortunatly we got to watch the sun rise every morning since Abe woke up at 5am every day.

2 months

Somehow he gets cuter everyday.

Mambas please!

Does anyone know where I can find Mambas? I've been craving them and looking for them since the beginning of my third trimester of pregnancy and I've looked everywhere (every gas station, grocery store and target). If you see them please let me know where! I'm dying here and starburst are not cutting it.
