Another Birthday in the Books

A few weeks back now, we celebrated Brad's 33rd Birthday. He wanted to get away for the weekend and do something different so we decided to make a trip over the mountain to eastern Oregon. They call it the High Desert. We rented a house in SunRiver, which is a resort area for the whole family. My parents and my sister and her family joined us as well.


The house was huge and had all the amenities. It was just over a 3 hour drive, but well worth it to see the beauty and peacefullness that surrounded us. The resort is just about 20 minutes from Mt. Bachelor. This mountain is huge and offers 360 degrees of skiing or boarding!



Here is a nice vew from the Lodge of the guys at sunset with the mountain in back. Ahhhhhh!




We also got to visit a new facility they have there that is a all in one recreation center. It is called Maverick's. It has a full gym of equipment, a basketball court, rock wall and indoor pool. We hit up the pool and the boys had a blast!



Here is the wave pool that Brad and I wanted to ride, but did not want to pay another $20 a piece to do it... so expensive for a few minutes on it!

Brad's birthday was on Sunday, but we decided to do his dinner on Saturday night so we could celebrate together. The boys learned "Happy Birthday" with grandpa John on the guitar so they could sing to Brad. It was adorable.



We had a great time biking, swimming, playing games and just relaxing a little. It was a good birthday for Mr. Bradley!

Peacock Lane

We took a trip to a local Christmas Landmark- Peacock Lane.  It is in Portland.  Every house on the lane decorates with Christmas lights.  Several do amazing things! I had not been since I was younger.  I had wanted to take the kids in the past couple years, but we just did not make it. We had a clear, dry night and took advantage. :)

Moved & Ready for Visitors!!!

We are officially moved people!!!! After a month and a half of constant work in getting the place ready, we have made the journey and came out in one piece for the most part.  We have gotten things unpacked and put in their respective places.  And been finishing up some details in several rooms.  We have some smaller projects left, but the majority of the work is done and the house looks great!  We now have it decorated for Christmas and ready for Santa to make his stop. Brylee would like to give you a tour! Enjoy the pictures: The front of the house: The side view of the front yard: A view into the backyard: The front porch: The Sunroom: The Kitchen (a little dark), but the paint looks awesome!

Per my mom's request I am posting some pictures of me when I was young and some pictures of Brylee.  My mom was recently going through some old photos and gave me these.  She said that she could not believe the similarities as she was looking at the pictures.  So Mom here you go! These are me at 13, 15 & 16 months:                               And here is Miss Brylee:                                                                   Other than I had a lot more hair than her at the same age, we do look pretty ...
