The Holiday Season is Beginning Around Here!

This year we aren't able to make our traditional trip to the Christmas Bavarian town of Leavenworth,WA.  So what is a Papa and Grandma to do . . .but to bring a Christmas village that looks like Leavenworth home! :-) 





 Every fun grandparents' house needs one, right? 

Very Fun Science Project!!!!

Potato cannons!  
Made all by themselves! 
Wish I could post the video of them being fired, as the pictures just don't show their awesomeness! 
(I'll see if I can get these two teenagers to help me figure out how to post a video! :-)

Fun Birthday Outing with Victoria!

We were so blessed to have Victoria drive up to spend the day with us girls, 
in part to celebrate her birthday! 
Her birthday dessert request was chocolate mint brownies!
So we brought those along with us for our drive around to a bunch of thrift stores and other shops!
 But, first things first!  We HAD to stop for coffee! 
 It was a very fun 10ish hours of just having fun together! 
(And we each found some good deals while we were at it!)

Happy 23rd Birthday, Caroline!

Had fun going back to the good ole' days with decorating the house in a specific color for a certain special birthday person of the day! 
 I enjoyed hanging notes and cards and balloons throughout the house! :-) 
And she got lots of lovin' from the younger sibs! 
 Then, her stealthy secret birthday elf had a blast decorating the entryway to her office! 
(Kind of an eclectic theme, varying from princess to a hint of Cinco De Mayo!)

 Pin the tail on the llama! Ha!
 I also had a special time bringing the birthday girl her favorite latte from Fiddlers. 
When I went through the drive-through, the guy taking my order was a little befuddled. 
As we were trying to work out the details of her very specific drink, and I mentioned that it was for my daughter, he said . . ."Is it for Caroline?"  Ha!  How did he know? 
A little birdie (named Annie Voetberg, who is a friend and a board member at Possibilities and one of the daughters of the owners of Fiddlers :-) overheard our complex communication over the speaker, and just knew who it was for! :-)  So she made it just the way Caroline likes it and also wished her a happy birthday!!!! 
Unfortunately, I didn't get a photo of Caroline with her latte from Fiddler's. :-(  
But this is how I treated myself on this happy quadruplet birthing day . . . . 
 She also got a very sweet surprise visit from John and Valerie! 
And they came bearing a gift of a raspberry danish! :-)

And then, at the end of the day, we took Caroline out to our new favorite Mexican restaurant, right here in Mossyrock!  Thanks so much to Lydia for watching the four youngins' for us, so us five could enjoy a nice, relaxing time over dinner! 
We love you soooooo much, Caroline!

Happy Birthday to Two of the Four!

Today we had a little pre-birthday celebration party for two of the four quadruplets! 
 John and Valerie enjoy watching the Seahawks games with us on Sundays,  
so we combined their being here with a little pre-birthday celebration.
 T
We're looking forward to our next celebration when Victoria can join us on Thursday!

Last Day of October Dress-Up Day! ;-)

This is really every day at our house . . . .
 We just decided at the last minute last night to go parading through town with a bunch of other little kids! 
 Also, got to enjoy this adorable little princess fairy and her beautiful mom yesterday!
