Too Cute!

Turkey Hunt

After hunting came fishing, of course! 
All we got was wet, but this boat ramp is worth a picture. 

Joel, Gabriella & Meera pose with the kill. 
It isn't just a guy thing apparently.

 Adrian's trophies. Two turkeys with one shot!

To remember our mom  this year, on the anniversary of her death, we hiked Dog Mountain in the Columbia River Gorge.  We each read letters that we had written to mom. Even Shauna wrote one...it was amazing how much she knew about her even though they had never met,  just from working with Linda this year.  It was very special and healing. We forgot to bring kleenex, but other than that it was a perfect day.
