Oregon

In February we went over to Oregon to be there for my nephew, Landon's baptism. I was nervous about the 12 hour drive with the 2 kids, but they did great. I left with them early on a Wednesday morning with my parents, and then Chris came with my brother Darik and his family early Friday morning. It was a blast being over there and watching the cousins get to know each other. We only get to see Travis and his family maybe once a year, and I soooo wish we lived closer to them! Addy got along great with their kids and misses them. While we were there it snowed, and since Oregon never gets snow..they canceled school once of the days because of the whole 1.5 inches they got that melted in an a couple hours!! On Saturday, Carrie was able to get all the girls tickets to their Children's Museum..and got the boys tickets to go play laser tag. By that time, Addy and Mason were both feeling sick..and had had fevers off and on and ended up throwing up a little bit later that day. Needless to say, they were exhausted and ready for bed at the museum. When we got home on Sunday, I took Mason straight to the Dr, because I was guessing he had another ear infection which he did. Poor boy had a miserable 12 hr drive home. Anyway, we had a blast and are so grateful for Travis and Carrie for all they did for us while we were there. They had our name for Christmas so were lucky enough to open our presents while we were there. Thanks for an awesome few days, and we're so happy we were able to be there for Landon's baptism. I sadly didn't get any pictures of it..but it was a great night!

a shopping room where they had carts to go get food and then they could scan it and check out.
