Mother Daughter Weekend

It all began 6 years ago with an idea to get together to do Christmas shoping in San Francisco. My mom and I, Rema and her daughter Holly, and Patti and her daughter Natalie have been going away togther for 6 years now!



We pick a fun city to meet in a tour for the weekend. We have had pregnant "daughters" and babies join us. We have gone to San Francisco, Santa Barbara, Monterey, Portland, Apple Hill and this year; San Diego.



We enjoyed the beach, shopping for Christmas presents, and good food!



No weekend is complete with out a silly hat picture!

Happy Thanksgiving

We drove to Bend for Thanksgiving. It was very crowded on I-5 on Friday so the drive took 8 1/2 hours. Jack and our dog Tuck were both well behaved and being with family made the drive worth it!



Here's a picture of Louisa Stark. She is the newest member of the family!



Jack & Ben loved it when Bumpy showed them how to play the piano. Both Ben & Jack are so gentle on the piano, no banging, only soft rather musical play.



We had fun trying on our new shirts Bumpy gave us. Now were ready for the Hoildays!
