Bat City

We actually saw the bats this year, last time we tried (March 2007?) they were smart enough to stay in away from the cold but we and quite a few other people were hopefully awaiting their appearance. It was fun to see them, there're thousands of them. Quite a sight!!!

We went to the park!!

Fun days at the park near their home!! It may be hard to tell but the 3 bottom pictures are of the bat toss that Cooper was playing (it's a plastic bat!!)

Austin - October

We celebrated Dad's birthday again in Austin when we got there October 1st and then had a fun time with the Hiltons!!!

08-08-08 Happy 50th Lori

We were thrilled that Lori wanted to celebrate her 50th birthday with us and it was so fun. Her family was here except Amy, who we dearly missed!!! Thank you, Lori, for 50 fun years.

Under the sea

I didn't know that it was so colorful "under the sea", these were in a small museum we went to in Sitka, Alaska. Amazing life down under.!!!

Jim Moore moved...

We got together in August, the Kay Lane bunch, and sent Jim off as he'd sold his house. He's only the second one to move out of the cul-de-sac since we all moved in!!! We wish him well. That's his girlfriend with him.

Cheryl's "40th" Visit

We had a fun brunch for Cheryl while she was here, one of the many fun things we did!!!

More summer fun...

We had many fun trips to parks and lakes while all our visitors came last summer. We were so thilled to have everyone who could come last summer, please come again!!!

While Kristen was at her reunion

Melissa and Guy had the families out to their new home for tractor rides, a bonfire and fun and games with the cousins. A fun cousin sleep-over. Thanks, Knoblichs!

We have a fun new park...

and the Hiltons came to visit last summer. We had some fun outings to our new park and other parks around the area. We did have some sun also.

This is from last summer when the Hiltons were visiting so you can see my posts are going to be random since it's been so long since I posted. I love these pictures of Porter, he didn't care if it was raining he just wanted to go out and play.

Singing in the Rain (or Summer in Washington)

Victoria Our Last Stop!!

We didn't arrive in Victoria until 6 at night so we didn't get off as it was 1 1/2 miles to town and it was getting dark.

We did see some hang gliders - and a little scenery. It was such a wonderful trip and we were so spoiled, we just loved it!!!
