Smoke, Seven, and Football Sundays

Our week-end started and looked like this...

the air quality was consistently in the hazardous range. 

We went to the Nihill's to celebrate Miryn's SEVENTH birthday.

On the way there, Rylan texted me (he and Logan stayed behind because they both had runny noses and coughs), that it was so smoky. 

I texted him this picture back. 

We should be seeing the Columbia River out that window. 

We made it and were welcomed by Miryn's Lemonade Stand. 

Alyson, Presley and Mylee

Miryn and Harper climbed trees in Miryn's back yard. 

Harper picked out her present--A Cutito, and Miryn just loved it.  

She carried it around and signed her thank you card "Miryn Reefito"

Dad texted the boys and we laughed at Logan's response.

We don't leave them very often :)

We were singing happy birthday and Miryn kept checking to make sure Thomas wasn't coming too close to blow out her candles. 

sticking out her tongue at Thomas

And successfully blowing out her own 7 candles.

Miryn and Harper hit the piñata and collected the candy.

Harper created this for me on the way home. 

And Sunday Football is back...

Dave told us that those 8 boxes make him so happy!

Grandma and Papa took their motorhome for a getaway to the Wildhorse. 

Papa and Archie stayed in and watched football too.
