Game #5, Win but Haley is Out With Sprained Ankle

Haley misses the game against Chehalem Valley Middle School (Newberg). At the end of the school day, in life fitness class, Haley sprained her ankle while playing, of all things, basketball. The teachers/coaches iced her up and said they wanted her to stay home and get her ankle back to normal.

Later, Coach David called to check on Haley. Let us know the girls and he were really disappointed that Haley couldn't play. He said each time the group broke from their huddle, instead of their usual, "Knuckle Chuckle!!" , they yelled, "HALEY!!". He said it was a close and tough game but they did win and he said the girls won the game for Haley. Wow!

Game #4, Win!

Haley with some of her teammates after their game #4 win against Woodburn team, French Prairie Middle School. (56-12) Annie was able to come for the start of the game, but had to leave early for a work meeting. She got to see Haley make a few points and really didn't want to leave.

Uniforms for the Classic Basketball season

Haley, Alexis (left), and Michelle (right), ham it up for the camera as they wait to receive their uniforms for the "Classic" team. Although regular season games for the classics begin after the Titan season, they will be going to tournaments beginning this weekend, thus, time for uniforms!

Thanksgiving 2006

Thanksgiving Day! Lori generously secured a nice place in Hillsboro to host our Thanksgiving get-together. Here we see two of the youngest girls, Haley and Jessica, at the feasting table.

Everyone but Annie, Joelle, and Gary Lee Jr. were able to make it.

Game #2, Getting Congratulations

Haley and Grandma after basketball game #2 in Dallas, Oregon. (Haley's team won 54-12!)

Mom and I made a day of this. We left earlier in the day and went to Falls City, where we were able to spend the afternoon with Aunt Bob. (Aunt Bob is Mom's oldest Sister. She gave mom some copies of pictures from when they were little girls, and showed us some of the neat crafts she is working on.)

The La Creole Middle school is beautiful. It is just down the street from an absolutely awesome aquatic center. Haley got to play in the main gymnasium. The other team was nice and polite, Haley's team played and acted professionally.

After the game I got this special picture. We said goodbye to Haley (she rides home in the bus with the other girls, stopping at McDonalds for dinner on the way...lucky girl!) and then we headed home. I got lost once, missing a turnoff at Rickreal, and had to travel an extra three miles to get turned around. Other than that, there wasn't too much stress. I really enjoyed the day. And it was great that Haley's grandma could come out for a traveling game.

Game #1, Lady Titans Basketball Season Begins!

Haley and Becca after their team's win. (Annie was able to come to Haley's first game. I am not good company to sit next to because I am taping games to put on DVD for the coaches and for our own library).

Haley... Friday the 13th... In 3D

Today Haley went with Annaliese and Liz to Washington Square over by Tigard. There, she bought a pair of big hoop earrings and this brown t-shirt. According to her they were both on sale (Way to Go!).

Click this picture and tell me if this is not cool or what!

Ice Cream at the Tillamook Cheese Factory

Here is Haley at the Tillamook Cheese factory in Tillamook. We went there right after she played soccer. (She made her first goal of the season! Congrats!)

Okay, the secret three scoops... peaches and cream (Haley's Fave), Chocolate-Peanutbutter, and my favorite, Marionberry Cheesecake! We ate and slurped this on our way home. Also, the reason this picture is in black and white is Haley was messing around with camera settings while on her school field trip to Mt. St. Helens. grrr...

Public School For Haley

Haley enters Public School. She will spend this year at Neil Armstrong Middle School as an eighth grader. Her biggest victory? Convincing Mom and Dad she needs to be able to wear blue jeans to school. (so it begins...) Posted by Picasa

Lori Here From Arizona, We Go To Beach!


Haley, Annie, Lori, Mom, Dad, and I went to Lincoln City today. It was a fun trip! While the weather was in the 90's at home, it was foggy, cool, and windy at the beach. And the casino was awesome (especially the buffet! They had the best salmon and salmon chowder. Very, very good!)

So why this picture? While the others remained in the casino, Haley and I went down on the beach. Unfortunately, it was super windy! I had a little tiny tent I was going to use as a sun shade while Haley ejoyed walking along the water. But because of the wind Haley tucked herself inside and I got this picture. Too bad I forgot to get everyone together for a group picture. I'll remember next time!

Soccer Haley!


From Monday, August 14 through Thursday, August 17, 2006, Haley was at the soccer camp put on by Forest Grove High School. The school's coach, Mike Hernandez, was there everyday. Haley was the only 8th grader there (grades 4-8), but because she is new to soccer and wanting to learn the basics it turned out very well for her.

There were high school girls there that worked with Haley. Also, today, the last day of camp, Haley begins her soccer season...practice at Lincoln Park. Roger Vandecouevering is her new coach.

Working in the Kitchen.


One of those rare pictures that I am in. Haley took this while I am helping Annie to make "Lumpia" (loom-pee-uh, Filipino eggrolls). At the hospital, workers enjoy sharing food. They love Annie's lumpia so much she spends a lot of time filling orders from them!
