2 Weeks of Family and Fun!

What better way to spend the first 2 weeks of Tyler's six week break than with family? We started off with Tyler's 10 year High School Reunion, and the fair and rodeo in Hermiston. We then headed down to the wonderful Sunriver, OR. We spent a week here. We rode bikes, shopped, played games, swam, golfed, played games, ate yummy food, shopped, went in the hot tub, laughed, played minute-to-win-it, and made wonderful memories! We were sad that Connor was not able to make it. But... he got a new job, so it was worth the sacrifice! Next time Connor! After a relaxing week in Sunriver we headed back to Hermiston where we spent another week. Tyler's brother and his wife and baby were visiting for those full 2 weeks and we wanted to spend lots of time with them since it's been about 2 years since we last saw them. It was so fun! We ate, shopped, golfed, and swam. (pretty much the same stuff as in Sunriver). We've missed them and it was so fun to catch up and spend time with them! It was Tyler's first time meeting our niece, and he enjoyed it. Addy had so much fun trying to help Kennedy with EVERYTHING. She loved being the boss and playing with K. Now it's back to real life. Tyler is "studying" for the boards. As I am typing this post he is out golfing with friends... nice studying! :)

Grilled Cheese Grill!

We ventured to "the other side" of Portlandia today! We ate at the grilled cheese grill! Tasty and cool setup! You order from a little food cart and then eat inside a double decker bus! It was so fun! We sat on the top floor and Addy loved the view from up there. She was so excited!

More Sun!

This whole past week the afternoons have been sunny and high 70's - low 80's. I have been loving it! We've tried to get outside as much as possible. This week we went to the Lake Oswego Splash Pad! Addy loved it! We also went to Wilson Pool... Addy loved going down the big slide with me and playing in the shallow water!




Look at that cute bum!


Running in circles with friends!





Addy loved pushing Alexa around on the blue mat! (they are the two in the background)


And being pulled around by me! :)

I stole the pictures from you, Danielle! Thank you! :)

Oregon Berries! Yummy!

One of the best things about Oregon Summers are the berries! There are always some type of berry in season! Saturday we went to Smith Berry Barn and picked til we were full! :) We got raspberries (my favorite), boysenberries, and marionberries. It was perfect timing for raspberries! They are so delicious! Some of the boysenberries and marionberries a little bit tart, but still good. Addy had fun helping us pick berries and watching the chickens and goats. She was so tired by the time we were done!

First Ice Cream Cone!

This summer has been slow going. We are finally seeing eighty degree weather which means lots of water parks and cold treats! We went to Jamison park with friends and after playing super hard decided to get some ice cream. I realized that Addy had not yet had the joy of her own ice cream cone! She LOVED it!

The Oregon Coast

Last weekend was a sunny, warm day at the coast. Minus the wind it would have been absolutely perfect! We enjoyed laying on the beach, soaking up the sun, playing horse shoes, running away from the water, and digging in the sand. After a tiring day at the beach we went to Mo's for dinner! What's the Oregon Coast without Mo's?!















This picture is actually from the night before... we got Frosty's at Wendy's and the girls were kind of messy. So, they took a bath!
