Monday, Funday... or Saturday Saturday ... one more day to go...

NOTE: I started this blog post on MONDAY... and am JUST NOW (hopefully!) getting to finish it up.... WHEW... it's been a week, that's for sure!!!Ok, so Mondays aren't so fun... BUT... I'm trying to think of "fun" ideas of how I can put up cute little posts throughout EACH week. One of my best girl friends has a blog, and does a "Wordless'ish Wednesday"... which is super cute. Hmmm.... wonder if she'd mind if I borrowed her good idea for Wednesdays?
Well, until then ... today is Monday FUNday! :) .... or NOW... Saturday, Saturday... one more day to go... (if you happen to listen to kid's songs/nursery rhymes, Laurie Berkner Band NONSTOP, you'll recognize the "Saturday, Saturday, one more day to go..." lyrics... if not, check her out. Jack and Maggie LOVE LOVE LOVE her, and apparently I do too. Her songs are pretty catchy!)
To avoid everyone (as in the 3 people who might read this blog...) falling asleep before even getting to the pictures... this will be a very UN-wordy post... and instead full of so many fun pictures that I have not yet had a chance to share.
Enjoy!!!
FUN pictures from our mini-vacay to Sunriver...
yes, that we took in... September!!!
It was so much fun!
We all enjoyed every single moment of our time there,
and are already planning & looking forward to our trip there next summer.
Jack and Maggie were sad (Brian and I too!!!) to go.
I'm glad that they will always have some really great memories
of their 1st trip to Sunriver, as I know they'll be many more to come!!!
 The munchkins LOVED riding in the bike trailer.
Brian and I
(munchkins in bike trailer attached to my amazingly strong hubby's bike!!!)
biked ALL over Sunriver.
It was THE BEST way to check out all of Sunriver!!!!  
The house we stayed in was super close to
Ft. Rock Park. We spent some FUN time there!!!
The tire swing was a big hit!
Brian kicked my booty at teether ball!
I was teaching Jack how to play, and I'm pretty sure if he were a bit taller,
he would be following in his Daddy's, teether ball "booty kicking" footsteps...
next year, I'm sure I'll be posting that
 Brian AND Jack AND Maggie ALL beat me at teether ball! :)
On our way to the Marina, we stopped to see some GORGEOUS horses.
They were right up against the fence facing the biking/walking trail...
and didn't seem to mind visitors!
(except when one of the horses "sneezed"...
I got outta there QUICK!
I don't think I'll ever live "getting spooked"
by the horsies down... from anyone in this house!!!)
Saying Goodbye to the Horses...
we did stop on the way back too!
This may have been the highlight of the entire bikeride!
Jack and Maggie are still talking about it!
One of the gorgeous ponds we stopped to check out on our bike ride...
can you see the the Ducks???
Gorgeous view of Mt. Bachelor!
One of MANY, deer families that we saw! This family was really close in, as you can tell!
Do you think they're getting ready for a game of tennis???
Again, we had such a FABULOUS time... I have more and more and more pictures from our trip... hopefully I'll have a chance soon to share more!

A few more fun photos to share...
Jack's GREAT pumpkin artwork!!!
(and possibly working on his "pirate "argh matey" eye" look???)
 Maggie working hard on her pumpkin art work!
 This picture is just too cute not to share! Maggie and I were at the hospital last week (for one of my last follow-up appts. from my surgery... yay!!!) and she saw this giraffe at the gift store ... she ran to it, and gave it the sweetest hug and kiss! She is definitely such a LOVER!!!

 Jack having lots of fun with his "doggie" Halloween Costume "paper dolls".
Yes, this mama had to get creative a couple of weeks ago, when Maggie was really sick, very contagious, Brian was out of town for work... and the kiddos are I were STUCK in the house!
Of course, making a doggie paperdoll with different Halloween Costumes (adding magnets to the back) is the answer! :p
 HA, HA, HA!!!! Someone found Jack's special magnify glass! Too Funny!!!
We hope everyone is enjoying this gorgeous Fall weather we have been blessed with. Along with having fun doing all of the great Fall activities there are!!!
Lots of Love from each of us, to each of you! xoxo
