A week with my parents!

Well my parents left this morning after 6.25 days with us! Thank goodness for Skype, because although we will miss them terribly, it really makes it so much easier being able to SEE them about once a week! We did SO many fun things while they were here. Here are some of the pictures we got. (They got out of order, so excuse the randomness)


 Fernview campsite where we stopped and at our lunch.




On our (long) drive to Redmond!

 What's wrong with this picture??

 Smith Rock

 All of us explaining to Saylor that she should not be standing on wobbly fences that are right above a 50 foot drop.
 Sleeping lynx

 Bobcat
 We visited the High Desert Museum while Mom was attending a saddle fitting seminar. They had an abundance of cool stuff. Some animals (like the bobcat and lynx pictured above) We got there at 11 am, and stayed until they closed at 4, and they had to usher us out around 4:15!
 They had a butterfly and hummingbird room.


 And a lot of exhibits about the native americans and settlers
 But best of all, they had TONS of activities to keep kids interest! Saylor had a BLAST

 Diggin for potatoes
 Playing an old fashioned game


 Goof
 Our view for most of the time in Redmond
Saylor having a good time meeting the horses at Mom's saddle fitting seminar













Joe caught a quick picture of a yawning bobcat
 Mom taught me how to french braid on Saylor's hair

It was a GREAT trip. Sad that I'll have to wait until July to see them again. They treated us to delicious meals, and wonderful company! We got to bowl, climb, go to wacky bounce, go to the beach, and more. They even made it possible for Saylor to start gymnastics, AND for Joe to join an indoor soccer team! I couldn't ask for more generous parents! So inspiring! We don't take it for granted, guys! We love you and miss you already!!!
