Surprise!! Not

We are in the habit of missing our niece and nephew that now live in The Dalles, and yes again we make the journey to The Dalles to go to a Surprise 16th Birthday party for our niece which she knows about already. she invited us. anyway this is a well known adventure and this time we have 2 more passengers. My sister and other nephew are coming with us boy what a crowd. it will be good to see them again and I can't believe she will be 16. I feel old. so once again we are off to see the gorge and have some family time. since Chris is here and he is scared of dogs he is beginning to get used to them. well sort of. he at least does not scream when he sees them he yells shoo dog. but he does say come dog and turn around and yell shoo. he is a funny little man. so that is all the habits for now TTFN.
