merback in action merback in action merback in action merback in action an online journal tuesday may 19 2020 happy 14th birthday georgie rose merback here she is at the happiest part of her day after just discovering the surprise party made in her honor by her favorite people but we ll start at the beginning with the birthday song and breakfast in bed opening her new iphone georgie went from an iphone 5 to an iphone 10 yowzer how she suffered and how she ll be pleased sarah ella mae the birthday girl she s so happy reese annika the full circle of thespians georgie from an outsider looking in here s what we see georgie is extremely independent and responsible she sees through life s fluff and does the things that she thinks are important like taking care of her school work spending time with and reaching out to her most important friends getting her chores done working on her craft drawing in private it s likely that she dances or works out or sings in there too but who really knows and taking care of her body she knows what her skills are and what her skills aren t and is fine to leave those things that don t fit who she is behind she has self awareness beyond her years with the way she arranges her day the food she feels best eating running naxi everyday i feel better when i work out in the morning and she does it georgie is relatively quiet though quite a lot bursts out when she s with her friends she plays games and spends time with us as a family when i ask because she knows its important she has a great attitude and enjoys her time but is always ready to go back to her room and be alone when georgie shows you she cares it feels really special because it is so sincere it s fun to have georgie in your family because she has so many passions that she introduces us to and they ve become part of what most of our family now enjoys as well right now georgie loves theatre still alice in wonderland tom holland and spiderman still star wars she got a darth vader case for her new iphone cheescake flavor blasted goldfish strong cheese books and i ll check in with her i think there s more there s usually a musical of the moment that she s discovering recently it was beetlejuice but i m not sure where we are now i love you g just as you are even though sometimes i may make comments that sound like complaints its only because we re different and i want so much to relate to you but i m grateful for your difference and all you bring to our family i so admire the wonderful things that you are xoxo mom posted by ash at 9 31 am 0 comments monday november 19 2018 waldo lake at the end of august we went to waldo lake with the smiths for three days there are no hotels or even showers on the lake but there are latrines and communal spigots with running water we aren t the greatest campers but the smiths were there for back up and they really encouraged us to come glad they did here is georgie on the beach we didn t get any pictures of the campsite our regular beach or kayaking on the water major fail but we did get some great sunset and mountain biking photos the lighting at sunset was incredible hence the photo overload the girls and naxi with maya and amira waldo is the second largest natural lake in oregon there are no motorized craft allowed on the lake it is gorgeous and clear and cold juliet doing some yoga in the sunset ashley with kara kara and nate are both ironman triathletes and major runners nate routinely qualifies for boston and has run two centuries kara ran 40 miles for her 40th birthday needless to say we feel like couch potato blobs around them family picture at waldo lake this might be our christmas card picture this year maya and georgie maya is hysterical she is one of the most hot and cold kids i have ever met sometimes she will spend hours alone in the van and not want to interact with anyone but other times she will melt your heart with how sweet she can be she hisses like a cat and makes claws at me originally because she was trying to keep me away from her mom but now it is how we say hello to each other kara and her girls juliet the tree hugger georgie with naxi in the sunset snowmelt from the mountains in the background forms the headwaters of the willamette river isaac with naxi and ashley with naxi not sure who took this shot but isaac doctored it up to use as an avatar photo the first two days were cold and rainy but the third day was sunny and glorious we went for a nice long bike ride on a trail around the lake that was easy enough for the 8 year olds juliet with naxi on the trail the first section is through forest but after riding for several minutes were came to the burn area where a fire occurred several years ago riding past a pond juliet handles herself really well on the bike lots of practice riding back and forth to school kara on the trail amira by the pond georgie on the trail this was our destination a place where the trail neared the lake look at how clear that water is even more impressive than tahoe given that there is no wake chop kara and amira nate stayed with maya back at the campground he had already run about 20 miles that morning another possible christmas card photo even though we were super cold for two days and short on food and there really wasn t anyplace to wash one s hands which i do obsessively numerous times every hour the kayaking and biking on that third day really rescued the trip and made us excited to come back again next august posted by joey at 6 42 pm 0 comments sunday october 21 2018 juliet s birthday and georgie s pinocchio play in late july 2018 nann craig and reese flew out to visit us in oregon georgie had the role of the villain stromboli in the production of my son pinocchio at the majestic theater and juliet had an 8th birthday to celebrate we took them to the basement the game room of the osu student union building during the summer it is a great place to escape the heat and have some fun isaac and papa shootin some pool this is one of the more unusual air hockey tables i had ever seen each of the four players has a goal that they defend rather than scoring points yourself every time someone else scores on your goal you lose a point and once you lose five points you re out the game continues until there is only one player left it s a fun king of the mountain twist i love the looks of concentration on their faces after billiards air hockey and bowling we headed to an early dinner at mcmenamin s a nw chain of irish pub restaurants apparently the original has a beautiful hotel on the property reese and gaga ashley and isaac after dinner we had planned on parking closer to the theater but the van wouldn t start luckily we had plenty of time to walk to the theater before the performance thank goodness for small towns in fact we had forgotten to buy georgie flowers so i ran back to the van which started bought flowers at the co op and then parked close to the theater this isn t actually a shot from the play it is a staged photo that ran in the local paper georgie had wanted the part of the blue fairy on the left but she was perfect as the evil stromboli who abducted pinocchio and tried to make money off of him a la p t barnum here she is after the show those are some serious eyebrows some fellow cast members pinocchio was a good friend also named reese and la professora buonragazza in green is a friend named sara great story from after the play as we were pulling away georgie saw sara on the sidewalk and wanted to say hi bye problem was georgie was in the way back and isaac was sitting by the open window facing sara she yelled out hi sara sara turned and made and eye contact with isaac who is a grade ahead of sara at school and broke eye contact as fast as he could it was embarrassing for the two of them but hilarious for all other passengers in the van the next day we had juliet s birthday party at the house we invited friends from school soccer and one lonely boy whose parents are our friends ashley bought several cans of cheap shaving cream and we pulled out my old t shirts so the kids could have a huge shaving cream fight early on before the glasses came off getting more serious now in the blue on the left is eli the lone male thankfully he is already kind of girl crazy and didn t mind spending the day with bunch of females kayleigh and brennan from school juliet with katie from soccer the birthday girl it was inevitable that they would end up on the trampoline georgie is bodily expressing how we all felt after the party the next day was juliet s actual birthday july 29th and we spent it with the family in pursuit of the ideal swimming hole this one comes pretty close a covered bridge passes over it and the water is very still with no current to speak of it was warmer than the other one we briefly stopped at but not warm enough for ashley to get in goofing off in the water i took naxi out into the middle and made her swim back she is a good swimmer and doesn t mind running and jumping in the water but hates being so deep that she has to swim the petteys at the covered bridge after some good days off i had to go back to my livelihood so the petteys went to suttle lake lodge in the cascade mountains it is just a few minutes from our local ski resort hoodoo and reminded ashley of the resort from dirty dancing i wasn t there and i used some of these pictures in the post about liz s visit but they are just too good to not include and comment on this is the main lodge naxi heading towards the girls on the dock this photo of juliet is outstanding the pose the facial expression the hair the romper just perfect isaac provides a nice contrast but still a lovely place to eat breakfast with gaga papa and reese playing corn hole one of the highlights of the lodge the mountain in the background is hoodoo not sure if this is an artistic shot or a selfie botched by the wind having ice cream in the twilight at a great resort by the lake with your cousin can life get better yes having ice cream in the twilight at a great resort by the lake with your cousin and your dog aunt ashley and niece reese the lounge in the main lodge with a record player vinyl albums games a fire place and pets welcome the main doors hand carved isaac reluctantly joins ashley framed that previous photo perfectly but when you hand the camera over to a stranger to get a shot of the whole group you end up with a lot of empty space as my dad would say let s fix that much better posted by joey at 6 36 pm
