We were so sad when Sonna and family left Blakely, and then we left Blakely and we had a day to be sad and then Jonah’s brother Noah and his family arrived from San Diego for Labor Day weekend. YAY!
Jonah knew Noah and family were up for something exciting, so he picked them up late from the airport and had them help him pick up a Mercedes he had bought a month before but didn’t run too well. Basically, it didn’t run in first gear, so Noah had to get out and push it anytime they stopped. He was a very good sport about it and they made it home in good time.
Everytime we see a bald eagle (which is at least once a day), Jonah calls Noah and leaves a message for Lyla, “I see a bald eagle flying!” I don’t know the origin of this whole thing, but luckily Jonah took Lyla to the Audobon center after church so she could see one up close.
We took some good walks with the other Eyres. That’s our roof in the middle of these lush fields.
McKay and Lyla were great blackberry pickers too.
We also did the usual, like crabbing and ear candling. (This is Noah and Jonah).
Even though Noah and Kristi’s kids are almost 2 years younger than ours, they are the same size as ours. They are also very similar in looks, don’t you think?!
Cam and McKay at the beach. I think McKay was expecting Southern California temperatures.
They also took a boat ride out to the light house. Foggy.

We took a trip to Lake Crescent and it was a total delight. Warm. Stunning. NO ONE else there. Everybody (except Kristi and I) skiied some good runs. It was one of those perfect days.
Elsie even found a duck to torment.
One of the most beautiful spots on earth.
Go Jonah on the wood ski!
Ana is doing well skiing on one long Maharajah wood ski and one old homemade ski I found in someone’s garbage pile. She dropped the homemade ski, of course.
Rrrarh! Sadly, those Eyres didn’t get to stay for very long, but we packed it in while they were here. Thanks for visiting Eyres!

Yes Ana is wearing a wetsuit. She has some Fegert genes in her and gets cold. We also found an amazing rope swing. We had to climb a tree with the rope and then drop out of the tree.
Noah and his kids make the most unusual poses and smiles for photos. We love it.
