Epic Adventures!

Jace
My friend Jaden from school invited me to Friday night frenzy at her church and we had so much fun! We had tricycle races and played laser tag. We also went to the library and blew lots of bubbles outside. Crossfit panned a trip to crater lake to hike and go swimming in the lake. We didn't even know you could do that, but we were excited to go. Daddy had to work, but we rode with miss Audra and Demian so we could watch a movie on the way. It was a sunny day and the lake was beautiful. We hiked down to the lake and there was a big rock to jump off of into the lake. Mr Kurt went first and waited in the water for me to jump. It was so awesome!!! Mama jumped after me, but she took a long time to jump;) We had snacks down there and played in the water some more before hiking out. We had a picnic back by the lodge and then we headed home. I wished daddy was there for the adventure because it was epic! After we told him about it, we went back the following week after a trip to the water park in Sunriver with Lala. We had so much fun at the park, then did some school shopping and stayed in a hotel. We went to crater lake again on our way home. Daddy and I jumped off the rock this time, mama and Bella just watched. It was another fun adventure. We made lots more sauce, canned more peppers and picked lots of blackberries too that next week. One day we picked blackberries with the Hill's and the boys and I had fun floating in the pond and swimming in the river after picking our buckets fill of blackberries.

While Jace went to church with Karen, mama painted my toe nails took me to dinner and Miss Audra took pictures of me in her sunflowers, it was special! I had lots of fun on the Crater lake adventure, I even swam in the child water even though I didn't plan on it. The chipmunks there were really friendly and cute! Mama's friend Amber came to Roseburg, so we went to get mom's house and played in the river all day, we even picked blackberries and pears at her house! I helped mama a bunch this year with sauce, peppers and pesto. We had a great time at the water park with lala and went out to a yummy dinner too! I was a very good blackberry picker when we went to the Hill's, I picked the most of all the kids and talked miss Christie's ear off. We played in the Applegate river before going home and mama made a delicious blackberry pancake the next morning! We also spent a day at miss Audra's naming Apple pie filling. All of us kids did taste tests and played. The week before school, we had play dates, pool time and the Hammers took Jace and I to the movies and ice cream while daddy and mama floated the river on their paddle boards. Miss Audra and mama made 20 meals each to put in the freezer for her work days and sport practice days when school starts, while all of us kids played. I am ready for school, I can't wait to start!
