Daddy, I'm scared

Abe: Today we took daddy out for his 54th birthday to Oaks Park, this fun and historic amusement ride park that was having its annual Octoberfest. We know dad likes beer and we like rides plus it was a warm sunny day along the river.

We liked the train and every other ride except this really scary Rolly Coaster one that Sally and my mom took us on.

Dear Mommy: please don't make us do things that make our faces as frightened as this ever again, OK?

Am I on Fire?

Koh: Thru my blog I met the people from a secret gaming society with code name Fire. I can't really say much, but they want me to join, and I'm a little nervous. It's all online stuff until you get in, then I couldn't say any more.

"Fire" is always around, in chat words, on the game walls, lots of gunfire, just everywhere ...including the hot fire brand I would have to get on my body.

Please help me by "comment" below. Do you think I should do it? I'll be 3 in January, and I can officially get in then. My parents don't know about this.

We miss our Grandma

Koh: We took Grandma to the train station yesterday and she gave us BIG hugs and said she was going to her 50th high school reunion in Wisconsin and would be gone almost 3 weeks! But what about Mondays with Grandma? What about trips to her house? Orange treats? Weekend adventures like this one to Maryhill Museum?

Come home Grandma! Grandma come home!

Corndogs, Cows, 4H Clubs - guess where we went today?

...to the Oregon State Fair, of course! World biggest petting zoo, lots of greasy food even grandma and mom and dad ate, fun acrobats on stage, free stickers and pencils, these really big scary animals everywhere, milking the goat, ribbons on rabbits, "don't step in the poop," loud chickens not like ours, sky-high rides ...when do we get to go back?

Thanks, Taz! Thanks, Margie!

Dear Margie and Taz,
