Wow, thank you Trisha for finding a flight on Spirit Air for a red eye to Portland Or. I had a wonderful time. It was a surprise to the boys. I am not sure that they knew what to do with a surprise. Niki was first to see us. He was so confused, he was hiding behind his Mom when he saw us. Then we went to pick up the other two boys at school. When Luka came out running to the play ground and saw us he stopped in his tracks and looked up. With a stunned face he just waved his hand and said HI. Aloysha came over and gave us a hug but I think he was not sure what to think. After the unusual surprise we had a wonderful weekend.
We watched Luka's last soccer game.

| Time to leave for the next adventure. |
While we were having fun, Aloysha had his boys only 9th birthday party. Patricia made a special dirt glow worm cake.
After a busy day it was time to relax. We took the two big boys out for ice cream. Then we had to work off some of our energy. Hanging out at the park.
Time is going by so fast. The day we were going back home,we went to a great park. We walked all day where we had lunch at the river. Then later in the afternoon we were off to the only picnic table in the park for our evening cook out.

 |
| Eating with fork and hands is so good. |
 |
| Getting ready for a group picture. |

| OK, it is getting late and it is time to go home :-( . Hope to do this again. |
