Barry and I each had a zoom call today at 10:00 AM. His was his weekly Saturday call with his Canadian cousins and my monthly CGS board meeting. Mine went until almost 11:30, a little longer than expected. After our calls, Barry packed up his BBQ and pizza oven into the jeep. I got together all the fixings and we headed to Ryan and Amanda’s in Lincoln City. Unloaded everything and Ryan and Addison helped us carry everything upstairs. We loaded the kids in the jeep and met Ryan and Amanda at McMenamins for lunch. Chowder, Scooby Dogs (mini corn dogs), salads and brews. Headed back to the condo after lunch. 

I had photos to take of just me. I wanted some professional looking ones to submit for my CGS Board member headshot on the website. Had to change into different clothes for that. We did inside shots because it was pouring and windy outside. Once again everyone had opinions of where to take the photos. I can’t wait to see how they turned out. 

Addison, Amanda, Tucker, Goofy Hair to Keep it Out of His Eyes

Tucker wanted to go swimming in the pool so bad he begged his mom and sister. Amanda broke down and said yes after about fifteen minutes of negotiations and then Addison decided to swim too. It was so funny to see how it evolved. So off to the pool we went. Amanda, Addison, and Tucker went in but the rest of us stayed out. The pool was slightly warm. Barry coached Addison on a few things and Amanda played with Tucker. We stayed at the pool until Tucker’s lips turned purple. That kid would live in the water if he could. 

Back upstairs to the condo and the three swimmers took showers and dried their hair. We had the pizza doughs sitting on the counter to proof and they looked good. Once everyone was ready to eat again, we started the process. Barry heated up the pizza oven on the balcony. He wasn’t sure how it was going to heat up with all the wind and rain. It was hard to keep the temperature up. I lined all the fixings up on the island. I promised each of the kids they could roll out their own dough and top their own pizzas. It was so much fun! We made a total of 6 pizzas. Barry did a great job of cooking them for the first time in his new oven. Clean up by everyone then it was GAME TIME!!!

Tucker Explaining How to Play Left, Right, Center

We started out with Left, Right, Center. New game for Barry and me but everyone made sure we knew all the rules. Turned out to be a fun game. I have no idea how many times we played it. Then we moved onto Yahtzee. I have not played this game for years and Barry has never played it. If anyone knows my husband, he is not a game player, but Tucker and Addison convinced him to play. He got the hang of it, and we played another game. Fun was had by everyone. It was close to 10:30 pm and Tucker was getting tired and so were we. We had a busy day planned for tomorrow and we all needed our beauty sleep. Once again, such a fun day.
