Chalk Fun at Grandma's House

The boys had lots of fun drawing pictures on Grandma's sidewalk Tuesday. They got themselves pretty dirty in the process!

Our Visit to Oregon!

We had soooooo much fun visiting family! It had been 5 or 6 years since we have been to Oregon... way too long! The cousins all enjoyed getting to know each other. They got along very well. We didn't even have to break up any fights! : )

It was also very considerate of my sister-in-law to have her baby while we were there. It was her 9th... a girl!

We celebrated Scott's dad's birthday while we were there... here he is with his enormous birthday cake! Then again, it takes a pretty big cake to feed the Dutton Crew!

TAKING A QUICK NAP?

HERE ARE SOME SNAPSHOTS OF OUR VISIT!

We only wish we could have seen Taylor and spent more time with Brad, Becki, and Travis!

The kids want me to mention how much they enjoyed Grandma making breakfast! The morning after we arrived Jacob came into the living room and ask Grandpa, "Where is the lady who makes the toast?" (He was a little confused about having two grandmas and kept referring to her as Aunt Debby the whole trip up. He remembered her making him toast when ever she would visit us.) Grandpa told him she was sleeping and he said, "Well, go get her!"

Around the house

Family Night Hot Cocoa!

Here is Nathan sleeping in his jumperoo!

William's first day at school!

He was soooo cute! I was afraid he wouldn't want to stay. He told me that he didn't want to go to school, but he did very well!
