I'm not doing such a good job of

updating the blog anymore. Complaints are coming from various family members, but I guess I'm not finding this as fun as I once did.


2 weeks ago my father spent the weekend with us and we took our annual trip to the pumpkin patch. We couldn't have asked for better weather; it was high 60's and bright and sunny - not exactly typical

Oregon weather in October. We had lots of fun and took many pictures. One of the pictures we took in front of the llama pen and one very pushy llama posed with us. Later, when feeding the animals, the same llama tried to get all the food. Sophia was supposed to feed the animals, but she chickened out so I got to.

Her favorite

part was the big hay slide but she also liked riding the hay wagon and the mazes. We let her

lead us through the mazes which wasn't them most efficient way of getting through them, but she

enjoyed it.
