Last week Gracie and Emmett had spring break, so we did what no one else probably did - headed north into the cold, rainy northwest, of course! My Mom, flew down a little early, then rode with the kids and I while we headed to my parents house up north. The drive was good and we truly enjoyed our wet adventures for the week. My Mom had a few "chores" assigned to us for the week (rolling the coins in the change jar - the kids got to keep it so they didn't mind :-), cutting matting for photos, and a few other fun ones).
We were also getting ready for Weber Family sausage making so excitement was in the air! On Friday, Jason arrived at noon, then we had an early birthday dinner for Jessie (Pa made her bbq salmon, as requested). The Weber family began arriving Saturday morning and 500lbs of pork was cut, seasoned, ground, stuffed, and smoked before dinner - soooo much fun!! We headed out early Sunday morning and drove all the way back to Fairfield, getting in just before midnight. The kids are already asking when we'll be going back!
Much to Jason's dismay, Emmett and his cousin Cal, thought it would be funny to tramp around the house in clothes from the dress-up bin.....they were pretty cute! :-)
We also had to give my cousin Kate's new fiancee, Jon, a proper welcome to the family, so of course we had a bridal shower complete with lingerie! (There were other practical items too, but Jon didn't appreciate them as much! :-)
And last, but not least, a Hunter Family picture with our newest member, Emerson Mae.
