a few pictures from Oregon...

Here are a few Highlights from our vacation...
this is toward the end of our trip I still have to add like 900 more pictures to my computer...
no joke!
There was a lot going on durring our vacation-there were 11 cousins that reunited-only 2 girls out of the bunch. My kids had 3 aunts to spoil them -michelle is the worst :) and Grandparents that adore and missed the arizona kids...So with all of that there were parties every day!

This is us...my sisters and brother. We had a great time back together again. This picture is us being silly at Blue Lake Park. The only sibling missing is our sister in Texas.

At the park in Salem, Oregon

Lots of silly time with cousins...
Wrestling was always going on...Max is in the gray shirt falling over.
My Mom, little sister and I did a temple trip together in the Portland Temple.
I also got to visit my friend Kristen and her little boy Jayden. Kristen and I have been friends for 29 years-we are more family than friends. We always had dreams of our kids being friends and playing just like we did-so I felt really old now that our kids are playing :)

Way fun!! I'm glad you guys had a chance to play, but we really missed you. Welcome back! Next year I hope we can visit for a couple days. How great will that be?
