I’m reporting from a few miles north-west from Haines, Oregon. We’ve been visiting my family for Thanksgiving.

I helped poor a couple concrete walls on Wednesday. That was pretty fun and well, Josiah likes anything that involves trucks.

We had a light dusting of snow on the ground this morning. We went up to “The Timber” (the property my parents own in the mountain foothills) to look for some more snow to play in, but didn’t find much.

Well, Angie and I are going to leave Josiah with grandma for the evening and go on a date, so I better wrap things up.

I woke up this morning with a fat lip. Guess I must have done something to make Angie mad at me last night and she popped me in the mouth. 😉

Here’s Josiah’s Halloween costume…on Angie!

We took Josiah to his first movie in a movie theater over the weekend. Well, I think it’s safe to say it was a hit.

As a little background, we got Josiah a book of the movie “Cars”, which has been a favorite. When Angie asked him what kind of a birthday party he wanted, he said a “race car” party, referring to Cars. So we thought it would be good to take him to the actual movie before his party.

So we took him to Valley Theater and had pizza there too. When I walked in with the pizza I saw him sitting in the over-sized chair that was about to eat him but he had the biggest eyes that were just glued to that big screen. He got so into it at one point that he was squealing and jabbering with excitement.

All the way home and until we finally got him into bed he was just jabbering about the movie. I’ve put up a little audio I recorded here for those who are interested: http://www.pacifier.com/~smithw/audio/Josiah%20Reviews%20the%20Movie%20Cars.mp3
