Trip to Oregon.

What a wonderful weekend! The kids and I set off with Grandma and Great-grandma on a road trip to Oregon this past Saturday. Everyone did fairly well on the trip down to Albany, Oregon; it was a pretty long car ride. We stopped for a picnic lunch at the Maryhill park before crossing the bridge into OR. Then when we got to Oregon City, we dropped Great-grandma off at my Uncle and Aunts house so she could catch up with them. About an hour before we got to Albany, Ken was screaming his guts out and Emma was repeating "Mommy I'm starving to death," so we made a dinner stop and then finally made it to our motel...... Whew! On Sunday we headed over to my friend Kristin's house in Corvallis, it was her daughter Mackenzi's 6th birthday. Emma and Mackenzi absolutely loved hanging out together! The birthday party was great. Then we hung out some more at the house, went to a park, ate dinner, and after a full day of events, we finally went back to the motel for some sleep. After breakfast the next morning, we drove back to Oregon City and picked Great-grandma up; we stayed at Uncle Jim and Aunt Vi's for a few hours and visited of coarse. Then back on the road. We ate lunch at Multnomah Falls and had an ice cream cone. We just got back this evening, the kids are both in bed, pretty worn out still; but they did much better on the way home. It was so nice to catch up with friends and family, I hope we get to do it again sometime soon, road trips are great! Enjoy the pictures!
