Fire Station Open House

Brock is just sure he is a fire fighter! Everyday at our house we have to pretend to slide down the firefighter's pole, he says to me "slide like a firefighter off of Mom's bed." When we go on walks he has to run to the fire hydrant and pretend to hook up the hose, then turn it on, then squirt the water. I am sure I look funny to everyone who drives by as I am pretending to be a firefighter too!! It is actually quite fun!

Today the fire station had an open house. We couldn't miss it!!

Waiting in line to ride the fire truck. Brock was so excited to have a ride! He loves fire trucks. He knows the difference between a ladder truck, a pumper truck, an ambulance, a bomb squad truck, an airport fire truck, the chief's truck, a police car and on and on and on!!
Gage and Brock sitting on the fire truck, going for a ride! He was so happy, and thought he was such a big boy.
Riley had a good time too! He was all decked out in his fire truck outfit.

Riding like a big boy fire fighter.

Brock's Two--Riley's Six Months

Smiley Riley
Opening Sheriff from "Cars"
Gage and my invention-- The "Mater" cake. Brock was afraid of it...
When I asked Brock what he wanted for his birthday, he told me, "a passenger train, a semi-truck and a bulldozer."

Cousins and Aunts...

Cousin Searle taught me how to flex my muscles. Thanks Searle!

Riley is a little over 4 months. He is laughing, smiling, rolling over, eating, and doing all the things babies do. He loves his Johnny Jump and his brother. He is in 9 month clothes and weighs about 16 lbs. (Oh my achin back)

Up-a-side-down

I love lemons!!

Church Canceled for snow?

Here we are in Lebanon, Oregon-- where it hardly ever snows. On Sunday we woke up to this--5 inches of wet snow-- and they canceled Church.

It was a first for Gage, and it happened to me once in Montana when it was 70 degrees below zero with wind chill. Welcome to Oregon!!
