Murray was thrilled that Tuttie really "took" to him during our visit to Schenectady. They played lots of games and built Duplo towers (see Levi & Shauna's blog for photos). Tuttie even enjoyed sitting on Grandpa's lap.
Murray & Noah at Cascade Springs.JPG , originally uploaded by GraMomBo . Tonight we went for a drive on the Alpine Loop up to Cascade Springs. We started through Sundance and came home on an unpaved road near Heber right by Soldier Hollow Olympic Park. It was nice to get out and about. We even saw a 2 point buck coming for water.
Noah Turns 16 Originally uploaded by Grandma Boren . It is a good thing that Noah doesn't turn 16 everyday. I don't think we would live much longer. My sister, Sandy, and her children went with us to Lagoon Amusement Park to celebrate. They are visiting from Citrus Heights, CA to bring her son Roger to the MTC. Elder Astle enters the MTC on Wed. the 23rd to serve in the Pittsburgh, PA Mission. So we went to Lagoon at 11:30am-6:00pm. We went on a LOT of rides. Noah's favorite is the Spider, a roller coaster where the cars spin. It is pretty fun. Noah also got a present he loves-a portable DVD player. He watched Mary Poppins to and from the park. We stopped at Wal-mart on the way home and grabbed a cake. When we finally got home the Eldards came over and brought Noah some Mickey Mouse ice cream pops and Fat Boy strawberry cheesecake ice cream bars. The Eldards sure spoil us! We had a great time but like I said at the beginning it's a good thing we d...
Noah's First Date! Originally uploaded by Grandma Boren . Noah had his first date on Saturday. He went to the Homecoming Dance for Mountain View High School. Four students from the Life Skills Class went with Bruin Buds (a club that serves students with disabilities) first to dinner at our house (you know Murray loves to entertain although this one was actually my idea) and then to the dance at the Provo Towne Centre. Murray made his famous savory chicken schnitzel with noodles and I made a Fall salad with pears and walnuts. Murray liked the salad so well we are having it for dinner again tonight. Back to Noah--Noah's date is Corinne Bauer she is one of his peer tutors. The other couple in the photo is Ryan Painter (Noah's long time friend) and his date Brittney. We had a great time and the students did too! Kudos to Ms. Parker, Noah's teacher, for arranging this wonderful evening for the students. They all "had a blast"!
