Donaldson Crew Adventures

Hard to believe this amazing, beautiful, sweet, fun loving girl is 8 today. Abbie doesn't like cake but loves donuts!!!! Donuts are what she got!

Abbie got her ears pierced for her birthday and she was over the moon excited about it. We had lunch down town with Aislyn, her big 10 year old girl friend. The girls had a fun afternoon walking in and out of shops with Lulu. The day ended with her daddy and brothers joining us for dinner at Red Robin, where Abbie got a hamburger and had happy birthday serenaded to her.

Great day for turing 8! We love you Abbie and you make our family and life so much better.

Heavy smoke in the air from a fire burning near Sister's creates a spooky sunset.

Hunter, Noah and Abbie went to camp today. It is at the same place that we were at for family camp this weekend, so the transition was easy. Quite a few kids from school are there so it will be a fun filled week spent with friends.

Our church had family camp this weekend at the same place the kids have their camp this week. It was a lot of fun. The kids and Kevin got to swing on the giant swing. It was a little too high for my liking so I just watched. At night we had a variety show where people performed skits. Kevin was lucky enough to be in one and I filmed it below.

Pappie leaves early this evening for home and we left this morning to take the kids to camp.

Last photo before we left today. Hugs and kisses were given along with shouts out the windoed as we drove away, "LOVE you Pappie, thank you Pappie!" ❤

It was Pappie's last day and we went to the High Desert Museum. We had fun looking at the different exhibits especially the river otters. We ended the night having dinner over looking The Deschutes River in The Old Mill.

We had a great visit and until next time Pappie..... We love you!

Sunday night we had the Curry family along with the Delamarters and the Hoerleins over for a good old fashioned bbq. Tina's parents, Ken and Joan brought their ATV's over and gave the kids rides on them around the neighborhood. This may have been the highlight of the evening. We had a fun relaxed evening with great friends.

Friday night at the fair Abbie got to perform her Irish dance. We had such a fun time watching her while getting to take in all the fun rides and see the animals too.

Finished DIY cornhole set!  Complete with lights to play when the light gets low. On request from Kelly, painted to match the house! 

Hunter floated the river tonight with our church youth group. The floated ended at the Starling's home for bbq and outdoor fun.
