Trip to Bald Peak

It was a nice day today, so we decided to head out for a drive to a park called "Bald Peak" - the photograph above is actually about five photographs put together to make one panorama. The view was very nice from the park. Unfortunately we did not get a chance to take a picture from the other side, which was also an amazing view of Mount Hood and Mount Saint Helens.

After we finished at the park, we headed down to watch Madagascar II at the cinema. Nice day out and about relaxing.

Kids versus Parents!

This year Cynfor's soccer team parents felt it would be worth the effort to have a game with the kids. Although the game was all in fun, I think the parents were worse for wear afterwards. One of the parents had been injured on the Monday night trial game, so Friday's game was a couple of parents short.

I attempted to get out, although the other parents did most of the work, we all had a great time. I think if the team stays together - it may become a regular event!

Christmas 2008 House Lights

So, now that Thanksgiving 2008 is over, we have decorated the house for Christmas, which is just around the corner. Below are some pictures of the house after this years effort. We have added a couple of items to the group this year, it does help when the houses are lit up for the spirit.

Cynfor's Soccer Final

What is there to say, other than we watched Cynfor and his team win their tournament. It was amazing to watch. The kids played extremely well, and applied pressure through the whole game. It was a fun filled weekend, and we are all proud of what all the kids did.


Below are some pictures of the day - started cold and foggy, but when the sun came out, turned out to be a lovely morning.


All those early weekend wakeups are all worth it when your team wins!
