Trina and Jesse's wedding

Last weekend our friends Trina and Jesse got married. The wedding was Friday night at her brother's house, then the reception was Saturday in Portland. The wedding was really small, just family and very pretty. Tristan and I weasled our way in by serving a 7 course (3 hour!) meal to the families afterwards.

talking

I was trying to get a video of Adie reading. Of course when I started taping she quit - it's really cute, she just babbles away. You can hear a little bit of her. Eliza is on my lap (sorry for the shaky camera) and was in the mood to talk.

Those of you who know me well know that I don't LOVE animals, that's starting to change. We got 8 new chicks yesterday and they are so cute. Eliza and Adie would sit and watch them all day if we would let them. They were squealing and waving for about the first five minutes they saw them.

trip south

We've had a busy week. Last weekend I stayed with my girlfriends for two nights. It was my first nights away from the girls. Ryan had a fun weekend with them, and I had a great time just relaxing with friends. Then Monday I took the girls down to Ashland to visit my three sisters. It was really fun getting the cousins together. Gus, Vinny and Ila are pretty close - and funny!

On a side note - Jeanette and Willy started a blog - so here's the link for those who are interested http://nislysierra.blogspot.com

These three have a great time together

Ila reading to Adie and Eliza. She's not three yet, but you would think she can read. She's got her books memorized so she says them word for word and turns the page at the right time.

EYES!
