Uncle Matras

Uncle Matras was in town for a working week form the 4th to the 11th. He came to get some work done at Mom's cabin since things were slow for him in Portland at the time. Shortly after landing and before he headed up the mountain, Mom spoiled us with lunch at the Red Ginger Bistro on 33rd and State St. It was a very yummy and fun lunch! Jorja was a super star and ate with chopsticks all by herself thanks to the help of some super sweet waitresses! They just loved the kids and spoiled them rotten. It was fun to all be together(minus one, Olivia, she was in school)for the afternoon.






Jorja schmoozed the waitress so much she gave her this cute fan to take home.

Matras and Mom spent the rest of the week at the cabin. Josh, Blake and I went up to Join Matras on Friday to work for the weekend. The cabin had a great turn around in many aspects. The kitchen is brand new with great cabinets and a shiny new counter top. The boys worked hard to re-due the electrical and install the kitchen in one short day. One day we will get that place to way we want it! It was a beautiful weekend up there. Most of the trees had turned and the sun was shining. I do love that spot! Blake took some great pictures of the boys hard work. Will post them when I get my hands on them!
