Oh What a Drive....

The Kids at Watson Falls.

South Umpqua Falls

We took a drive out to the South Umpqua Falls on Sunday. The kids had never been to the falls and it had been so long since Jason and I had gone. I figured the falls would be flowing nicely since it had been raining and there had been some snow fall. It was beautiful and it was such a beautiful Fall day. Blue skies and sun shining. I took the opportunity to take a few pictures of the kids. After the falls we continued to drive out past the falls and through the mountains, were we ended up on HWY 138 east out by Lemola Lake. It was an amazing drive. We hit some snow and ran into some hunters. Such a wonderful day to spend with the family in the mountains.

The kids enjoyed the drive. Probably gonna be the last drive before Christmas. We will be busy with the holidays and I have been working some extra shifts to make some extra money for the holidays. LOL Anyways I would like to wish you all a Happy Thanksgiving, a Very Merry Christmas and a Wonderful New Year!

In other news... My close friend Melissa and her husband Neal will be welcoming a little girl into the world in April of 2009. Congratulations you guys. They are amazing people and wonderful parents already to Ella who is 2 now. I would also like to extend my deepest sympathy to my brother Tommy and his wife Kaci, as they received devastating news last week. The baby that they would be welcoming into the world in May of 2009... they miscarried. It was gods way of protecting them and the baby but not the easiest way because we were all so excited. But they can attempt again in the future, and I am praying that they will. I am so sorry and wish them all the luck in the future.

Pumkin Carving and Halloween

Well I hope everyone is settling in with the season of Fall. I know I am. I love Fall and all the colors. Fall is my favorite time of the year.

The kids had a really good Halloween. We spent the weekend before Halloween at my Best Friends house carving pumpkins and having a little socialization! Jessica just had back surgery a few weeks ago and cant get out much yet so we hung out over there and let the kids carve all the pumpkins.

On Halloween night we headed out to Myrtle Creek to trick or treat Main Street and hit some friends and relatives houses. The night was wonderful and the kids had a blast. They got so much candy we will have enough for next year! LOL I leave you with a few Halloween pictures.
