Jasper & I are on vacation this week! We've got lots of thing planned, but we'll see how much we actually get done. Today we're going to the Asian market, Fubonn. I'm hoping to get to Multnomah Falls, and the outlet stores in that area as well today. Other things on the list include: OMSI, toy store, painting Jasper's rocking chair, baking PB cookies, and a play date with Quinn & Lilly on Wednesday. Whew... I'm tired already :)

We went to Costco on Sunday and finally got a membership. We actually got out of there under a $100! It was absolute chaos!!!! My patience was very thin, so I had to come home and take a nap afterwards. BTW, we just recently sent the thank you to Janice for the gift card.

The trip to Indiana is planned. Jasper & Darlene leave next Tuesday and return the following Tuesday. Then Jasper starts his at his new school, Creative Minds on 12/10. Here's the website: www.creativemindslearningcenter.com and click on the Woodstock School button. I'm very nervous for him because this is more of a structured environment.

Darlene & I have the Thanksgiving menu in order. The usual will be on the table: Turkey (got it free at Fred Meyer), mashed potatoes, buttered carrots, Stove Top stuffing, crescent rolls, and of course green bean casserole.
