More fun at Hoodsport

Good thing Grandma brought a bunch of toys from her house to play with. Allie was in heaven with the doll stuff, of course. I think Grandpa was worn out. It must have been the rain.

We also had some nice games of charades. Don't ask me which one this was. I guessed kickboxing, but I was wrong.

We even got grandpa to participate, but he would only do it in his chair.

We also did some crabbing and seashell finding. All in all, it was so much fun. Jackson did come on the trip (even though he is not in many pictures). He is the little blue ball in Grandpa's arms in this picture.

Hoodsport Flooding

It rained so much there, that is was flooding. The river was blown out and was flooding over the roads. We had to take a trip to walmart to get more rain gear for Grandma, Grandpa and the kids. We loved driving around and looking at the fish swimming across the road. Look close and you wll see the fish swimming across.

Hoodsport, Wa Fishing

We took a family trip up to Hoodsport, Washington where there is great salmon fishing (Chum, Kings, and Silvers depending on the time of year). It was rainy, but the kids had a blast. Grandma and Grandpa Bowman joined us and we loved having them there to create and share memories. Grandpa, what a great catch (this is a fish skeleton).

Aaron also mananged to catch a seagull. It was hilarious. He was casting his fly rod and caught the wing of the bird in mid air. They had a heck of a time trying to get the hook out. The bird kept pecking them. I tried to tell Aaron to just catch the fish, but he wouldn't listen (ha)!

I even got to fish a little and I actually caught some.

Halloween and Fall Fun

Halloween was so much fun this year. Jace as Darth Vader

Allie as Belle

Jackson as a pumkin.

We went trick or treating with our friends, the Koehler's, and our babysitter Briana. We sat in the back of their truck with blankets and mattress'. Then we ended the night with a party at our place. The kids did doughnut eating contest, fishing pond, and ate candy. The boys watched sports and did a pie eating contest (Zach won- Good job). The girls sat and talked. We had a great time.

This was our Halloween carnival for the ward. Aaron and I dressed up as "bad to the bone Biker couple" (my hubby's idea of course).
