The Best Rivalry in Sports!

OSU 14 Michigan 3

Although the weather stunk and injuries plagued our QB, we still had a good time watching the best rivalry in sports! Sydney supported Michigan with me and Kendall supported OSU with Dad. Girls took a nap through most of the game, but were up at the end when OSU won...AGAIN!

Two Peas in a Pod

I think they must be used to sleeping next to/on top of one another. Doesn't seem to bother either one even when their feet are in eachothers faces. Their positioning is remeniscent of when they were in my belly!

Fun in the Sun

We had quite the adventure getting to the Children's Museum today. Uncle Kris's car broke along the way. We weren't but a few seconds from the house when something snapped and his car began leaking fluid (see picture above for the trail it left) We spent close to an hour hanging out in the parking lot of the "Portland Clinic" waiting for AAA to arrive and tow him back to the Couve. The girls made the most of it though and spent the time running back and forth in the wide open empty parking lot. Unfortunately there was bad news for the car. It was DOA and Uncle Kris will be looking to get a new car soon. We were all sad to see it go.

Papa visited all of us this weekend in Portland, and amazingly we finally had nice weather! We made the most of it and on Saturday we all headed up to Tom, Dick, and Harry Mountain. Here is a walk through out trip from start to finish. Enjoy....

So...we had a great day and the weather was gorgeous. It also was the girls

first real mountain climb and they were fabulous. We even managed tostop for dinner afterwards and they were great there too.

They were real troopers and we can't wait for the next mountain they will summit!
