Mmmm, Kit Kat bars

Ah, the post-Halloween afterglow of leftover candy. Good thing I just happened to buy our favorite kinds of candy! So now I am properly sugared up and ready to get a good post going.

Since I last wrote, we were visited by Mom C, Mom and Dad O, and are currently graced with the presence of Jess and Aidan. During Mom C's visit, we toured around the Columbia River Gorge, Multnomah Falls, Hood River and the Japanese Gardens. We also dealt with Lucy's broken paw, and Sofia discovered how much fun the cone collar can be:





During Mom and Dad O's visit, we took an overnight trip to Newport. The weather was questionable, but we still squeezed in a little beach time. It was absolute heaven for a toddler who loves nothing more than to play with wet sand and stomp in puddles. We also made it to the aquarium, where, according to Sofia, we saw lots and lots of puppies. Despite getting rear-ended on the way home (everyone is safe), it was a fantastic trip!





Like any good writer, I'll bring the post full circle and finish up with Halloween. It was an enjoyable evening in, handing out candy to a steady stream of kids. No costumes for us this year (sniffle), but Sof had great fun in her lobster costume!
