Billi's spiderweb

Billi ponders the darker images of Halloween

trying to express the anger in this piece of work

Rooms, they are a changing

This is before photo of the kitchen, in 2 weeks it will be a whole new world. White cabinets, stainless Steele handle, sink, and frig, microwave/stovetop. We will be in debit But Its an overall anniversary gift, xmas , keep up the house project and help the economyBelow are the accents we using to design the girls new native room. We found green Bamboo at Craft warehouse real cheap on clearance, a perfect place for the pandas she,s been collecting at garage sales this year. The cool hand painted Chinese fan also a gargare sale find $5.

Planning the big masquerade Ball

Joshi will be turning 7 in 2 weeks and I think she has dreams of costumed suitors twirling and dancing with her and her friends. She showed me where to move the couch so there was room for dancing. We'll see. But we asked everyone to wear a mask and its the weekend before Halloween, so I think the kids will want to dress up. Hopefully our kitchen remodel will be done by then, or it could be a bit of a hassle.

Apple picking in Hood River

Look at that tree truck. Man the trees are big in Oregon.

Take this sweater off

Zumba doesn't seem to like the Halloween sweater and tie. Wait until I dress him in the pirate custome I bought him to go trick or treating in.
Can you find Zumba in the above photo? He's the blur, crossing the driveway, that Joshi is looking at. I love how he sails thru the air.

Mores pics of Billi

Here's Billi in her Fall school outfit. I can't believe she's going to school already. We just went on her first field trip. A hike to Zig Zag Falls.
