September

September is a beautiful month in the mountains. Brian, Dionne and Amya spent over a week with us, during which time some of their friends and Aunty Danielle visited. We spent time picnicking, fishing, playing on our river and at Banks Lake. There were many DeWitt food fests and fun around the ole campfire at night. We also celebrated Rock's 66th at a Mexican Restaurant in Republic. Danielle left us and drove to Walla Walla for her work. We then left for Walla Walla to meet her, toured a winery and stayed at the "famous" Whitman Hotel!" Next day Rock and I drove to Medford, Oregon to attend a wedding in Ashland. Our best friends Larry and Susan's daughter Katie married Mike, whom she met in vet school. It was a fun filled four days in Oregon. The highlight was driving back to Renton to see our baby!! Wow, what a very busy month for the DeWitts.

October

October saw the 6th annual Tonasket Family Barter Faire (now a Dewitt/Irvin family tradition). Brian and Dionne were able to spend two wonderful weeks with us while Boeing figured it out! Our dear friends Bill and Barb from back East visited and joined in the fun. Grandpa and Grandma took Amya to her first pumpkin patch in grand Coulee Dam. Amya then celebrated her first Halloween as a chicken! Oh, and I welcomed a third grand dog this month. Welcome Tinks! Danielle and Chad will treat you like a "Princess!"


Tinks has already been entered in a fashion show! Imagine that

Halloween time for Tinks too
