Brooklyn’s Big Day

From blessing to baptism, oh how time flies!!  We are going to Baldwin’s for dinner and then to the church.  Brooklyn will never forget this day and a special bonus is, it is Valentines Day. 

On Sat. Feb. 13th Verne and I went to the Yard and Patio Show in Portland.  Lots of great ideas but it mainly gets us excited for Spring and yard work.  3 blueberry plants, a couple of baskets, and Verne loves balsamic vinegar… a $30.00 bottle of 25 year old unbelievably sweet!!!!

Heidi didn’t believe that our daffodils were blooming, so I took some pictures.  Our Daphne, hellebores, and forsythia make it look like Spring has sprung. 

 

The boys wanted a “boys night out”  Porter and Nathan came over on Feb. 11th for hot tub time and root beer floats.   In the morning Grandpa made sourdough pancakes.  A fun time was had by all… and “Bob’s your uncle”

Our twenty year old cars still gave everyone a run for their money…. in fact Lindsi’s car came in second. It was alot of fun for everyone.
