Grandpa David came to Oregon (just like he does every year!) to help Orson celebrate his birthday! We had a great time with him...

happy 5th birthday!!!

Orson celebrated his 5th birthday!

We had a great party at Chuck E Cheese with his friends & family...

Hi everyone!

Sorry for the long delay!

Things have been busy around here

halloween celebration at school

Orson was a little sick the day 

of his school's Halloween party.

So being a good mom, 

I let him skip the academics

and just attend the party...

Orson dressed as a mad scientist!

Cutest day of the year!

magic at the library

Orson, Daddio & I went to the library

to watch a magician perform.

Costumes were encouraged

 so Orson came up with 

this half cowboy half pajama outfit...

Orson loved volunteering to help the magician...

And after the show ended

the boys took a little time to read...

sauvie island pumpkins

Orson got out last year's Halloween costume

for a trip to the pumpkin patch on Sauvie Island.

It was fun day with Cousin Ryan & Gerrin...

Happy Autumn days...
