Donaldson Crew Adventures

This weekend, as an early celebration of his 14th birthday with his friends, we did a ski day up at Mt Bachelor.  The snow conditions this spring are amazing.  The coverage of snow is incredible considering its almost May.    Kelly packed us an amazing lunch that we ate in the parking lot for lunch.  After skiing we stopped in town for pizza.    If you are trying to pick out Hunter and Noah - Noah has the bright green pants and the blue jacket on skis.  Hunter is in all black with a grey helmet on a snowboard.

Family Friends - the Murphys over for Easter Dinner Saturday evening

Church service on Sunday followed by Easter brunch at Pine Tavern in Bend

We go the kids a badminton set for Easter so we had fun learning that in the afternoon along with an Easter egg hunt with eggs placed by Noah this year outside!

Amazing cloud formations over Mt bachelor today

Atmospheric conditions must be prime for leaving trails today.

Hunter and Preston received the Dependability award at school on Friday. We are so proud of their hard work.

Kelly wanted a bench in one of the rooms to our house so I made this one to the size she wanted. The design was based on a bench we saw in one of the Spanish missions in Texas. We then stained it a grey/brown color. A fun afternoon DIY project.

Holly found some deer antlers down on the lower part of our property. It’s cool to find a pair like this.
