Pumpkin Patch

We started the weekend with a trip to grandma and grandpa's. I decided to get some scrapbooking done. We planned a trip to North Bend to get started on Christmas shopping and to get Kylie a costume for Halloween. It was a huge success. We had a great time and got a lot accomplished. We ended the trip on Tuesday with lunch with Grandma, Uncle Matt, and Becka. We also surprise Grandpa and his friends, we didn't even know he was eating lunch at the Roadhouse Grill.

I was checking with everyone for cute things to do in October and everyone was making plans for the pumpkin patch. I decided while I was in town visiting my mom that we should go to Dusty's Pumpkin Patch and take some photos. It was a beautiful fall day and we had fun with Ms. Kylie.

Two Month Doctor Appointment

Kylie had a great report at the doctors office today. She gained and is now up to 11lbs 13 oz. She also grew a lot in height she is 23 and 1/4 inches long. Kylie is the 75% for her weight and in the 90% for height. My mom had to take over during the shots, I just could do it. Maybe next time. Kylie got three shots in her legs that she needed and did great. Th doctor said she is right on track with her development and she has extra strength in her legs, arms, and neck. It was good news all the way around!

Jake & Ashlie's Wedding

We had a fun trip to see some of Ryan's friends. Ryan's team roping partner for a couple years ago got married. We decided to drive to Pendleton. It was a really nice wedding and great reception. It was fun for Ryan to get to visit with his friends before he will be stuck in Royal all winter. It was a busy day. Ryan competed in the Old Dog Classic, which is a dog trial at his parents house. Ryan's dog Babe did great and it was fun to watch her work the cattle so well.

Anniversary

Ryan and I celebrated out third wedding anniversary with dinner at La Cabana. It was nice!

I love you Ryan! I am so lucky to be married to such a wonderful husband and great father. Love from, Jessica

Happy Birthday Grandpa!

We were so glad that you had your birthday tonight, so we could all be their to celebrate. We had a delicious dinner at Granny & Papa's house. Happy Birthday Grandpa!

Kylie's Baptism

Kylie's Godparents are Aunt Katie and Uncle Nick
Kylie was baptised into the Catholic Church today. She received her sacrament at Saint Andrews Church in Ellensburg. The same church where Ryan and I were married and my mom and dad were married. It was a really nice private baptism with close family and friends. We celebrated with a brunch at Grandma and Grandpa Gray's. Thank you for all of you that came to her baptism it was really special to have all of you their.

Maddie's Blood Drive

Kylie's cousin Maddie has a heart condition. She was born March 13, 2008 ~ 5 lbs. 14oz. Madison was prenatally diagnosed with the Congenital Heart Defect, Pulmonary Atresia, and is a Hypoplastic Right Heart (HRHS) baby who has undergone 2 of the 3 open-heart surgeries (BT Shunt & Bi-Directional Glenn) to "re-plumb" her heart, all in the first four months of her life. Her final surgery, the Fontan, will complete the repair and her heart will always function as a single-ventricle. The community along with Katie, Ryan's sister put together a blood drive in her honor. It was a huge success. This is Maddie's heart story and a glimpse at their family!
