This ones a LITTLE BIT better :)

Eric caught a 27 inch 10 pound German Brown. There were Forest Service workers collecting river samples at the river and said that they estimate this fish has lived in the river for 7-8 years.

And here's Chris's little fishy :)

Here's a size comparison :)

The fish could eat a Shih Tzu! Poor Belle!

Portland Road Trip

Chris had to work in Portland this weekend. On the way home we stopped at Timothy Lake along the way home and I got some great flower shots.

Rainy day picnic

It was rainy and gloomy today but we were determined to enjoy it anyway. We drove up to Lake Paulina, about 30 miles south-east of our house and was able to have a picnic at this gorgeous camp site. It was only sprinkling so it was really kind of nice.

The fish were biting, Chris was catching them 2 at a time! Too bad they were too small :( So they got released.

Even I managed to catch a mini-fish. This was at East Lake which is right next to Lake Paulina. So another fishy got to live another day.

Tonight's Michael's Night! 8th Grade Graduation 2009

Here's Mr. GQ himself. Isn't he handsome :)

Here he is on the Catwalk with his Graduation Certificate watching his feet so he doesn't trip :)

Here's the 3 Musketeers - Michael, Casey and Christian. Michael has really good friends, really great boys.

And... Heres the BIG SURPRISE! Stephanie. Our little Michael has a date for the graduation dance. Aren't they adorable???

Tonight's the Night! Prom 2009

And what a stressful day it was! The salon that was supposed to cut her hair at 2:00pm told me they didn't have time to do it!! So, my mom (what a trooper) was able to pull off a cute hair cut with a pair of Friskar Fabric sizzors! Then she got a vibrant blonde coloring and she just looked stunning!

Isn't she gorgeous?????

Then Nick picked her up at 5:00 and they were off to the Prom after the exchanging of flowers :)

It looks like Meghan pinned the flower, but behind the scenes we had to do it :)

Aren't they cute? He seems like a very nice boy and I think they really like each other. He sure was stunned when he saw her. I don't think he knew what to say :)
