day 3 part 2

I'm sorry this is taking me so long to post. But, this is a continuation of Saturday of our Portland girls trip. I did forget to mention that Saturday morning we were spoiled with blueberry pancakes made by Ted. He'd had them at a restaurant where the blueberries were blended in the batter, so tried them out on us. They were bright blue and yummy. He also made chocolate chip pancakes and regular ones.
I also did hair earlier in the day. sideways braids. on Kas and Emma.
aren't they cuties! You can definitely see the resemblance.

The kids played dress up.....all throughout the day.

Cutie got his nails done, and was seen wearing a tutu...even wanted to take it home!

Don't you love seeing a man at the sink?!!!!!For dinner we had Ted's famous ribs. It's a secret recipe he got from a friend. They are tender, flavorful and yummy.

We couldn't get the recipe from him but found a few clues!

temp, smoking racks, butter, apple juice.....

We all loved them. Afterwards we sat around the fire, ate s'mores. Emma led us in a story where we go around the circle each sharing a sentence to the story. It was fun.

Some were quite animated.

and thoughtful.

Later Ted played the guitar. Emma also got hers out. I love this picture.

Tim also sang some interesting songs. I didn't know he was so musical. It was a great night.
