Thomas!

We set out for a day of hiking in the Gorge and somehow got bamboozled into spending a day with Thomas and his friends and 200 other preschool boys! It was, as always, really fun to watch the Mizz having fun. It also brought back lots of memories of last year when D was just a a teeny baby and Mizz wasn't nearly as savvy at anything. Not that Mizz is really savvy at anything yet but he is making great strides. He used "apparently" correctly in a sentence today which cracked me up. D was more or less amiable the entire trip. Dave and I were even blessed with two sleeping children on the way home--which is far too rare of an occurrence for us on road trips. Since I had promised Dave some hiking as a make up Father's Day present, we stopped out Powell Butte on the way home and got about 20 minutes of semi nature in before we high tailed it back to the car. With Mizz, demanding snacks and "I want to see NATURE" every few minutes, not to mention the big drop on one side, it wasn't altogether the most relaxing nature getaway that Dave and I had imagined and miss terribly. On the way home Mizz announced that D "was a disaster!", which cracked me and Dave up. Here are some pics of the day...




Dave had an awesome time!

I was there too!


Is it so wrong for the one year to ride home in the trunk?
