A month of Road Trips

From the end of April to the end of May we went on 3 road trips. It was crazy but lots of fun!

First, we went to Utah where it snowed! We were not prepared for that and had to buy sweatshirts. Helen, we had a blast and Eryn still talks about Jump on It.

Then, we went camping in Oregon. It was so much fun and so gorgeous. I could definitely live in Oregon.

Finally, we went to Yellowstone for a whole week! We had saved up for it and loved every minute. It was hard to come home to reality.

Oh, and Echo, if you read this I want to be invited to your blog:)

Birthday Fun

Eryn's birthday was Friday! We had a full day of fun and at the end of the day she said over and over again that she "want[ed] to do it again."

First, Eryn wanted cupcakes and a cake so we split the batter in half. Eryn helped frost her own birthday cupcakes.

Then we met Aunty Tesa and Uncle Rich at Chuck E Cheese. We had pizza, salad, and lots and lots of games!

Then we came back home to sing "Happy Birthday" and Eryn blew out her three pink candles.

Finally, Eryn opened her presents. She received Wall-E, a Thomas train set, finger paints, and play dough. Watching her enjoy her birthday was better than living through my own birthday!

Slacker!

I've been behind in my posting so I'll just post pictures to let everyone know what we've been up to....

We went to a pumpkin patch. Eryn went on a "cow train", horseback riding, through a maze, and to a petting zoo. We didn't actually get around to going in the pumpkin patch....maybe next year.

Eryn was Snow White for Halloween. We got the costume for 50% off! Yea for deals!We also went to Disney on Ice. It was a blast and one more excuse for Eryn to wear her Snow White dress in public. It totally captured her attention the whole time.

MIA

We've been MIA lately because I've started a new job. I work at an assisted living center for people with dementia. I haven't done this kind of work before but I've discovered that I really like it. It reminds me of all those Sundays visiting Ponds in Punaluu and Crawfords in Sunset. It feels like genuine service...I just happen to get paid for it.

Dear Auntie Helen,

I put on this outfit at least once a day but usually with two shoes. Mommy has hidden my salmon colored jacket because the first time I put it on I wanted to wear it every where. Mommy said it was because of my blue shoes, pink printed shorts and purple shirt I insited on wearing with it. Mommy's weird. I had fun when you came for a visit and mommy says you can come anytime.
Love, Eryn
P.S. Where's the pictures you promised?
