Evacuation!

The day we returned home from Colorado, a huge fire erupted VERY close to home. After spending one day too close to the fire, Cora, Nat, Tanner and I fled to Mackay, Idaho to take refuge at our friend Mollie's house. Although we were all a bit unnerved that our town was possibly in flames, it was a pretty fun time. 

(Currently, the fire has died down quite a bit and is now almost 80% contained. Only a few structures were burned, but our trails will be charred for a couple of years.) 

After hanging out in Mackay for a couple days we headed home to a smoke filled house to do some cleaning and then hit the road again to travel to Bend, Oregon to visit our friends Sean and Jill. We are loving Bend and don't want to go home tomorrow!

In between the fire evacuation party in Mackay and our trip to Oregon, Cora had her nine month check up. She is still tiny, weighing 14 lbs and 6 oz, but is still 25% on the hight curve and is gaining weight at her own little perfect curve.
