Highlander Mandress

Try not to be distracted by Jonah's awesome outfit and instead listen to his great animal sounds. However, with regards to the outfit, I shrunk a woman's sweater and cut off the sleeves creating a great outdoor layer that is warm while still allowing him to be diaper free. I call it the Highlander mandress. Oh, and pink used to be associated with boys as opposed to girls. It was a shade of red, which was considered masculine while blue was for girls, being related to the virgin mary. So there.

Ahhhhh Breitenbush

We enjoyed a trip to Breitenbush Resort in the Oregon Cascade mountains where I took an immersion course in Thai Massage, while Jason and Jonah took an immersion course in hot spring enjoyment. A very very good time was had by all. Please note the exquisitely made jacket and woolen vest, courtesy of Nanna.










Magical Pumpkin Patch


On a cool fall morning, we took a trip to Sunfield farm's magical pumpkin patch. We met goats, sheep, chickens, and found a sweet little Fern in a pile of pumpkins.

A Day in the Life

Just another day of play amongst piles of concrete rubble, stacks of freshly milled lumber, 100+ lb dogs, tools, and rainbow jump ropes. Life is good.




Viking Child?

Now that he's got furry boops, Jonah likes to wear them all the time. Even to bed. Even out marauding with wooden mallets.

Fabulous Fall

We are very fortunate to live on Blossom Lane which is a literal stone's throw from Heron's Pond, a beautiful open wetland meadowy grassland area. We enjoy walking and playing and being in the meadow, especially on afternoons when the light is just so lovely and golden. We have been blessed by both fall rains and sunshine in the last few weeks and our grass is greening up. Jonah has been loving tromping around in his new footwear; a pair of sheepskin boots and red rubber boots. He calls them "boops"








New Red Boots


I feel any additional commentary on this video is unnecessary.
