Here is my Mum with her granddaughters.....giving her a tattoo! Precious moments.

FORT

Genevieve created a fort under the stairs....she slept there a few nights and even had a sleep over with her cousin, Ellery under there!

A few pics inside our new house....slowly getting organized.....

Toothless

Oh no- Grandpa Jack lost a tooth and swallowed it!

Oh no- Genevieve has no front teeth!
These two are quite a pair indeed!
Cute~

Grandparents rule!

My Mum and Genevieve planted the pot outside our bedroom window.

So cute to see them work side by side~

My parents, Devin's Mom and Step dad all enjoying our back deck!

Jack, Jan, John and Martha otherwise known as Grandpa, Grandma, Dad Dad and Noni!

Our new home

This is the view off the back deck~ right into the beautiful woods!

This view is from the road in front-

This is walking down the path to the front door

Here is the front door to the left and the stairs to the deck in front~ can you believe this is a 7 minute drive from downtown Portland????


We are so lucky to be renting a house for the school year in SW Portland. It is in a lovely intentional community with 15 homes on 8 acres. It is so peaceful. As strange as it feels to be in a different location....we feel so blessed. More pictures later as I continue to unload boxes! But we have landed- now we just have to adjust!

Goodbye JB

This morning we left our apartment...drove away from Pulai Springs....through Johor Bahru....over the causeway....into Singapore. Such tears of goodbye- amazing to feel a years worth of memories and adventure coming to an end. We spent a peaceful rainy day in Singapore. Soon off to sleep...and bright and early off to Singapore Changi Airport. At 9:15 am we fly to Seoul, S. Korea.....onto San Fran. Switch planes and fly up to PORTLAND,OREGON. Home.
Stay tuned for leaving pictures of Malaysia...and welcome home pictures in Oregon. What an incredible journey....family journey- personal journey- journey of motherhood- journey of culture- journey of color.....endless. The world is filled with beautiful people, places, rituals, customs, colors, faces and friendships. Feeling exhausted and blessed. Stay tuned.
