NO more teenagers!

 
Today is Jesse WAyne's 20th birthday. That means we are all done with teenagers in our house ~unless someone wants to give us one~
The thing about Jesse is he is capable of doing so many different things, and has a wide variety of interests.
But mostly he's all about adventure! From sleeping out in the most obscure places, to hiking, to jumping into the coldest water, to jumping ~or falling~ out of moving vehicles!!!!
I remember him as a little boy out in the garage "knockin nails"
or sneakin over to Gramma Norma's for hot mush. (he doesn't love when I make it but has fond memories of eatin hers)
Since the day he was born we've continued to be surprised and entertained by the boy.
WE LOVE YOU JESS!! Have a great day.

Hike #2

 
 
 
 

We are so very fortunate to live in this great northwest where there's beauty to be had right out your backdoor. We're also very fortunate to have a son who always wants to be moving about and wants US to too!!! Here we are on our second hike, this time Maddy, Cocoa & Ducati joined us! Bet you wish you were with us don't you?

Burbidge/Newell Hiking club

 
 
 
 

Today was our first official hike of our newly formed hiking club. We are going to hike somewhere once a month and anyone can join us that wants to.
We hiked up Mt. Eleanor until we got to the snow line. (a good hour) It was fun and some of us realized how out of shape we've gotten!!!
Our next hike date will be Feb. 13th
Fri. January 29th we're going to have a potluck/planning/game night to plan it.
We all had a great time. Some of the highlights were: Devlen loved the hike and kept well up to the front, he even broke out into a run sometimes, Flat Stanley (a friend on loan from Wilson) came along, & every once in a while the sun would break through the clouds and we could see how very high up we were and the beautiful lake Cushman below.
Great fun, more to come!!!!

Today Baylee Ellen Burbidge turns 5

 

Here's a few of the pictures we have of her.
She is a fun loving, fast talking & even faster thinking, little firecracker of a girl. We sure love having her in our family.
HAPPY BIRTHDAY BAYLEE ELLEN!!!
