Ohio Guests and Halloween

Our long-time friends, the Dekkers, came out for a visit and spent the last week with us. This was the first time we had seen their son, Will, since he was three months old and he is now 2 years old, so we all had so much fun. One day (the one day that didn't rain, that is) we drove out to Multnomah Falls for a little adventure. In all the years I've lived here, I've never visited Multnomah Falls in autumn, and it was absolutely gorgeous. The kids were impressed with the tall waterfall and all, but pretty much they just loved chasing each other round and round the various stone steps and ramps, squealing and screeching the whole time (oh wait, that was just our child...). Anyway, we had a great week and love that we get to continue adding fun memories with life-time friends!




Isn't our little ballerina so darling? Madelyn trick-or-treated at Mimi and Baba's and Nana and Papa's today as well as a few houses in Nana and Papa's neighborhood. Let's just say, she fully gets Halloween now and is a solid fan. She also had a great time handing out candy to the kids trick-or-treating at Nana and Papa's door and didn't even seem scared of the scary masks. All in all, a great day. And the weather was just beautiful -- crisp and temperate and dry, what do you know. And the trees in the Northwest are just gorgeous right now, so we are soaking up every beautiful moment of the season while it lasts.
