Juniper

One of Lindsey's school buddies Juniper.  She's a "K" and does "K" logs and has magic.  She even can put a spell on snuggles.

Papa Jim's 70th birthday

My dad, Papa Jim, turned 70 early December.  Uncle Ted, Aunt Lisa, Eloise, Uncle JP, Aunt Sarah, and us joined Papa Jim and Grandma Sandee in Eugene for a celebratory dinner at King Estate.  Lindsey made it clear that a restaurant is not her preferred location for a birthday party and Eloise agreed with her.  The adults had a fine time though :).

Leaf Snake

The leaf snake has become an annual tradition for 

Lindsey, Garrett, Ellie, and Sparky

VIT Buddies

Halloween

Lindsey talked about being a rainbow flamingo for several months before Halloween.  We pulled it off.  We trick-or-treated at HP with Amaya, Elsi, and Olive and joined up with the Collins and Crane-Butler-Hall Crew on the mesa.
