OR/WA 2013 Trip ~ Day 6 ~ Part 1

Wednesday ~ Day 5

Ali, Christopher & Treyson slept in till 7:30!!!  Ron & Brandon went to the men's fellowship & Bible study with our home church, Northwood Alliance.  

They meet each Wednesday at 7:00 a.m. at Big Al's.  

 Heard from both of the guys that they had a great time of fellowship and studying God's word.

Christopher, Treyson & I decided to run a couple of errands.  First stop was the Blaine School District office to see Leah Crews and give her a gift for baby girl due to arrive sometime next month.

Leah Crews & Alice.  Leah went to school with our son, Brandon. 

When I heard she was having a girl it was time to get crocheting...this is not the best picture but the blanket is different shades of purples.  Can't wait to see baby girl wrapped in it.

 We puttered around the house and just enjoyed being together and then it was time for lunch and we headed out to one of our favorite places to eat in Blaine, Paso Del Norte.  

 So fun to see Miguel & Aida and enjoy some great Mexican food.   

And if you stop in ~ tell them Ron & Alice sent you!

We then headed back to the Lang's.  On our way into Blaine Christopher commented that the bay was flooded (the tide was in) and so after lunch we drove home through the bay again and took a few pictures.  Christopher really wanted to walk along the beach but it was cold and rainy so pictures had to do.  Sure hope you like them.  Once again, Christopher was taking pictures from the back seat of the van.

One of the things we miss is walking down at the bay or out at Semiahmoo. 

A beautiful day to watch the water come and go...too bad it was too windy to get out and enjoy it.

Christopher's view of the bay.

Another view of the bay!

Another view by Christopher!

And then it was time for a nap ~ yeah!!! and then to get ready for the Wedding!!!

To Be Continued!!

OR/WA 2013 Trip ~ Day 5

Well, well, well

Ron just said Day 5 was missing in the blog - I remember writing it and even posting pictures but have no clue what happened to it.  So here goes!!!

Day 5 was Tuesday

This is where we found Treyson & Christopher Tuesday morning.  They started out on the air bed (thanks Mr. Jim for setting it up) and ended up on the floor between the air bed and our bed.  Seeing Treyson sleeping like this reminds me of how his Daddy (Brandon) used to sleep at this age.

First up was coffee with bestie, Dee

(thanks Christopher for being the photographer)

Another sweet double picture :)

Christopher gives no warning when taking pics so you get what you get!

The boys were fascinated with this fireplace because you can see all the way outside.

Grammy laughing at Treyson!!

And then time to get stuff out of the storage unit.  Thanks Max for watching the boys. 

Because Protec doesn't open till 1 p.m. I was able to get some extra visiting with Dee.  And then Ron needed some tools to put the hard top on the Jeep so got to see Dee twice more!!!

And then it was time to Party!!!

Photographers were Christopher Workentin & Ben Padilla
