Here are some more pictures of Oregon

Bend, Oregon

I was in Bend of the last two weeks! I love going there. My sister in law asked me to come up and do a denim party so I thought it was a great excuse to come up and see my fam.

Little did I know that it was going to be a CRAZY trip....Alan had finals so he stayed home. We got into Portland on May 3. My aunt lives in Vancouver so she picked us up and we stayed with them over night! It was super fun to how big my cousins are getting and Gavin had a blast playing with them.

Sunday my sister in law drove to Portland to pick us up. She is sooo cool. So we got to drive for 3 hours back down to Bend with them. It was so fun to catch up and just relax in the car.

Sunday night we went to bed early and hung out with my in laws. They graciously changed their plans and let us crash their home. Monday we got up early and headed over to Missys house for some much needed play time! Gavin and Macey played and played. The Robbins got some baby chic for Easter and Gavin and Macey had so much fun 'checking' on the chicks every 15 minutes or so. They played on the swimgs, playhouse, bikes, scooters, house everything.

Once time they came in and we said whatcha doin. Gav said checking the chicks. We said well how are they doing. Good. We tryed to rope um. Really? Well, did you get one? Macey did. (seriously?) Roping chicks.

Monday night at like 1am Baylie woke up SCREAMING!!!! She had thrown up EVERYWHERE! So sad. She threw up like 5 times. Finally she went back to sleep at like 4 am. The next day she was just not feeling well. Tuesday all day she threw up and was just so tired.

Well Wednesday she seemed to be feeling better so we went and played at aunt missys again all day! And then went up to Aunt kims to play with her boys! Gav had a blast playing on their bikes, playhouse, with the hamsters. Everything. Sooo fun. We had to go to dinner at Alans brothers house at 5. Alans parent came and met me at their home and we started following them up to Jeffs.

Gavin throws up all over the car! So we get there and I hose him down. and we head home. We get to the parents and he is soooo week that he asks me to carry him in.

So I take Bays in the house and put her down. I kind of went to close the door but just a little and ran out to get Gav. Well the door hit Baylie in the head and she starts crying and trying to follow me out. I keep getting Gav and turn back to carry him in and Bay throws up all over the porch! I was like are you kidding me? So then I put Gav in bed go back out to get Bays who is still crying and throwing up and the parents Dog ran AWAY! UGHHHH

***He does this all the time and normally I find it humerous but after reading the story I am sure why it was not funny to me at all!****

So I clean the kids up get them in bed order pizza and call alan and cry. I made him come up! So the next day his parents went and picked him up at the airport and brought him back.

I had my party on Thurs and Friday and Friday night Alan had an allergic reaction and had HIVES!

Very interesting trip.

Ole, Honest abe sure knew what he was talking about. I am so greatful for this period in my life. Not only for motherhood but being thankful for the Mother I have. I would be nothing without you MOM. You have helped me be the Mom that I am. I hope that I am doing you proud. I see so much of you in my children. I am so thankful that we moved back to AZ so that they could know you well. You have such a good ability to seek out the good in other and ALWAYS give EVERYONE the benefit of the doubt. I love that. You want the best for everyone always. You have a good ability to let things go. I appreciate you so so much Mom. I Love you Always. Happy Mothers day.
