Pictures of the Week

This week we took a nice break from the fun/endless drudgery of homeschooling and enjoyed a visit from Jason's parents. The only problem was that the weather didn't cooperate and we had to make do with lots of rain! On Thursday we took them to the Redwood Forest, where I thought the forest canopy would keep us dry. (Sometimes I'm pretty dumb) We ended up getting completely soaked (because of course we still did the hike in the rain) and had to eat our picnic in a hollow Redwood tree! It was time to break out the bored game and the men all played Risk. I won't tell you who lost, but Jason was really grumpy the rest of the day.
Finally we got a break in the rain and took another hike. Here is Aiden and Puggles the dog climbing a tree. Did you know that dogs can climb trees? They can't, Puggles fell off in a very funny way a second after this was taken. (She was not injured, of course)

And the grand finale of the week was when Jason's beloved sister came and we had a girls' lunch at Olive Garden!!
