OPEN HOUSE

We are planning on getting a new house next year to make sure I can stay in my awesome school that I love. So we went to an open house to check out the goods.

I’m ready to move in. There was a huge yard and I already planned out the amusement park I will build there.

This is a good spot for the roller coaster.

This is where the big drop ride will be.

And over there is the future home of the water ride. When do we move in??

KENJI’S 3rd BIRTHDAY

Happy birthday to my favorite cousin, Kenji! We visited Seattle to celebrate his big day. He specifically requested a rainbow cake.

He liked dipping his finger in the frosting.

Then it was time to blow out the candles.

SUCCESS!

One thing I gave him were my old Duplo blocks.

He liked them as much as I did.

Then the next morning, we went to brunch. Kenji loves to put Daddy’s hood on his head! Happy birthday, Kenji!

OUT FOR A DRIVE

I finished my first week of kindergarten and I was so tired!

Mommy and Daddy thought I’d want to be lazy all weekend, but I still wanted to go for a drive. We drove to a bunch of places and had a snack in the car.

Now it’s time to be lazy for the rest of the weekend!

FRUIT LOOP

It was our final day in the Columbia River Gorge, and we started off with a quick breakfast in downtown Hood River.

Then we headed off to the “Fruit Loop,” a section of Hood River filled with local produce and u-pick fruit and flowers.

Our first stop was The Gorge White House, where we picked lots of raspberries and blueberries, a few strawberries and blackberries, and a fruit I’d never heard of called pink lemonade blueberries.

Then we went to an antique shop called The Old Trunk. I was already so hot and tired, I just lounged in their outdoor picnic area.

It’s no secret that I’m a big fan of lavender, so we continued on to Hood River Lavender Farms.

I was almost ready to go home, but I wanted to go to one more lavender farm, Lavender Valley.

The lavender was swarming with bees, but I still love to smell it. Bees and I have good taste!

HOOD RIVER, OR

We crossed the Hood River Bridge to visit…Hood River!

I waded in the Columbia River at the Hood River Waterfront Park.

It was over 90 degrees, so we took breaks in our sun shade and laughed at something I can’t remember on Daddy’s phone.

After a day at the river beach, it was time to head back to our cabin. But I wanted to climb this cool dirt hill first!

I also mastered climbing the ladder that goes to the loft in our cabin!

STEVENSON, WA

About a month ago, I suddenly declared I wanted to go camping. There weren’t any campsites left in Oregon and we don’t have any camping equipment anyway.

So we rented a little cabin in Stevenson, WA instead. The trip got off to a great start when we got to cross the Columbia River on the Bridge of the Gods!

Here’s our home for the next two nights.

It has a ladder that leads to a loft – just like a Minecraft house!

We wandered around the grounds near the cabin and found this little stump seat.

There was also lots of lavender.

And an old tractor.

Daddy wanted to look like he was on the cover of Farming Magazine.

It’s really pretty here in the Columbia River Gorge!
