James, Daniel and I went to Aumsville and picked up Emma. We wanted to go for a hike at Silver Falls. It is an amazing hike through a rain forest with beautiful waterfalls. I took my GoPro and made a video.
My Birthday Camera
I bought a GoPro for my 49th Birthday. I wanted to do a sunset time lapse. This is my first one. I like how it turned out. Now I want to tweak the settings and try it again.
A flower tour of our yard
Here in Oregon we have a beautiful yard and this month all sorts of beautiful flowers started blooming. This is a video tour on March 3rd that I took to show off all the flowers in the yard.
Merry Christmas 2019
It was a wonderful Christmas morning. (I liked that the children let me sleep until 5:00, they had been up for two hours already)
Making “Gingerbread houses”
One of our Christmas traditions is making gingerbread houses. For the last couple of years we have done it with graham crackers. It is a lot less work and still just as much fun. Here are some pictures from this year.
Try something different
So after all the kids had turns on Grandma Jo’s four wheeler they wanted me to have a go at it. I wasn’t sure I wanted to, but then had the thought “why not, do something fun every once in a while.” So I hopped on. Just then I felt Lynn wrap her arms around me. Man I should have gotten on earlier! That makes me want a four wheeler if Lynn is going to ride behind me like that. 
One of my favorites
This is a picture that I took while in Oregon. We had such a good time spending time with Lynn’s family.
