February Happenings


Winter in Oregon is pretty mild for the most part, which means we can have some beautiful sunny days. I LOVE it!

 Snow is not my friend. 

It's fun to take advantage of those kinds of days and play at the park. Matt and Ivy didn't even have jackets on.

Crazy kids!






My sweet Ivy took a "Role Model" test at school and passed. She also had to get "Role Model" papers signed off by at least three adults in the school. And now because of her awesome example she is an official Errol Hassell Role Model!

She came home SO excited about her legit new badge.



Poor Eli had to get some shots. His reaction was hilarious!!! 

Let's just say that he can still scream like a girl.

My friend Dani said that this pic looks like a Norman Rockwell painting. I totally have to agree.



On Valentines Day we celebrated with our annual family Valentines dinner. We had a couple of extra guests at our table this year which was fun. 

The girl in stripes was our foreign exchange student from France. Lisa was here for three weeks. She was fine, but the connect wasn't all that strong. It's the first time we've had an exchange student that didn't fully enjoy. Bummer!

 But life goes on.



We took Lisa to hike Multnomah Falls. 

It's one of those things you MUST see if you go to the Portland Oregon area!

We went on a crisp, beautiful day. The hiking was fantastic and the views were so amazingly gorgeous. We all enjoyed it...except for Lisa.

Just one of the reasons she wasn't our favorite exchange student.

Oh well, sucks to be her.







  I think the sarcastic bug bit me today.
