We stayed at Eagle Crest the first weekend in December as Dan and Abby had a swim meet in Bend. They were doing horse and trailer rides! It was a lot of fun but really cold!
The deer always come out in the morning to say hello!
My favorite 8 year old swimmer!
Bike riding until they got too cold!
Unfortunately the pool water was cold too! :(
Heading home in the snow. Our van needed a new timing belt so we had Gram's van.
Apparently we brought the snow home with us! Just a dusting this first time.
It's nice now that everyone digs Santa!
They had some of the holiday horses on as well as a giraffe and a deer.
More snow! This time we got 3 or 4 inches. We took a walk to Abby's friend Emery's house.
He's laughing not crying. :)
Abby learned how to make scrambled eggs. This was the first time she did so many at the same time! I showed her how to use a different mixing bowl when she makes a lot at one time.
We made a small cake for Jesus' birthday and a half batch of cupcakes for Emma's birthday (which I put in the freezer for a week).
Sugar cookies!
Christmas Eve at the Dixons.
Merry Christmas! Santa brought one gift.
These were too big to wrap so we had them hide their eyes.
Grammy's house!
Happy Birthday Jesus!
Nelson and Sarah Westby's wedding!
Christmas with Grandma and our cousins in Beaverton!
Our first Blazer game as a family! We got a certificate for one free kids ticket with each adult ticket purchased from the summer library reading program.
Emma's last night as a 5 year old!
Gram gets the kids a desk when they turn 6!
The kids also each had a free mini pizza from Chuck E. Cheese from the summer library reading program so we did that on Emma's actual birthday since we wouldn't be celebrating with family and friends until January.
New Years Eve tradition!
It was snowing while we were there!
We stopped in Wilsonville on our way home from the zoo and used Emma's free Red Robin kids meal for her birthday and they sang to her!
