We can't really think of anything to say about these two pics. They just made us smile, so we included them.


Friday night was the OSU-Cascades Spring Fling. Emmett got dressed up in his going-out clothes.

Saturday was the Pole Pedal Paddle. This is a downhill ski (one run), 8k cross country ski, 22 mile bike, 5 mile run, and 1.5 mile paddle. Kyle did the paddle part with a rented paddle board. Most folks used racing canoes. Mr. M was support crew. It was a tough job. It was snowing and blowing, but M got all that ski equipment loaded in the car and was home for a nap by 11 am!

Later that afternoon there was a role reversal. Dad was support crew for Emmett's race around the kitchen. Mr. M loves his new trike from Yaya and has impressive endurance. He outlasted Mom and Dad. We are in real trouble when those little feet touch the floor. Go go go.

We now let Emmett bake bread. (As long as he wears a hair net.)

Going for a hike along the Deschutes River:






After our hike, it was time for tacos y papusas at Esta Bien. The taco was lengua. Yes, that's tongue. If you look close you can see tastebuds.
