Oregon Visit

This last week, me and my little brother Jamie drove down to Junction City, Oregon with the kids to visit my Mom. We had a wonderful time visiting with everybody and experiencing life on the ranch. The kids got to help move the big sprinkler lines, ride the Hondas, play with the dogs, go for a ride with "Loader Bob", pick strawberries, feed the fish in the ponds, play with water balloons and sprinklers and cow troughs turned into pools, sleep in a tent with Uncle Jamie (except Keira but this was a big highlight for the boys), admire cows, have a Mexican Fiesta complete with a pinata and hang out with their Nana. Keira was terrified of all the animals and water balloons but would climb on anything she could find. We ate lots of yummy food and thoroughly enjoyed our time there. It was great to be able to hang out with my little brother and I will always remember this trip for that reason. The kids were up to 9 or 10 every night and up early which they loved so we are all recovering from a very busy 4 days.
