Fun in Tualitin, OR

Ryan had meetings in Tualitin for a few days, the kids and I were excited to be able to go with him! We stayed in a nice motel right next to this man made lake. It was beautiful!
I tried to get a picture of the kids all looking, this is as good as it got! The kids and I had alot of fun walking around and watching the ducks in the water!

Beautiful Leauna playing and having fun!

I am sure they will have hours of fun on these! Thank you so much Dad! They are so lucky to have such a wonderful Grandpa!

Helping Hands!

The kids took on some new responsibilities this week! And I have been so thankful for their helping hands!
Lydia scrubbing dishes!

Lydia and Leauna! They are so funny because they would argue over who gets to scrub the dishes! We started splitting it up half and half. Lydia would scrub and Leauna would load, then they switched!

Leauna getting her turn scrubbing!

Ryland even scrubbed a few bowls!

Reagan stayed busy vacuming up any crumbs and dirt!
The kids were so helpful this week! And they loved it! I figure if they want to I will let them, I know there will come a time when they won't want to help anymore! I am going to enjoy their helping hands while I can! They are such good kids!
