Trip to Oregon




We just got back from a weekend trip to Oregon. We left on Friday morning and drove all the way to Yamhill, OR. Russ has a cherry supplier there, so he got to tour the plant, while Mirian and I played outside. Afterward, we took his client out to dinner. Mirian was so good the whole time!

The next day, we met up with Russ' brother Dennis and his wife Hannah, and their three adorable children. We had breakfast with them at the hotel and then we headed out for the beach! It was Mirian's first time at the beach, and she was pretty unsure about the whole thing. We had a great time though, even if it was a little chilly.






After lunch, Hannah and I did some power shopping at the nearby outlets. I needed to get Mirian some fall clothes and we only had 1 hour to shop. Thanks Hannah! You were awesome. We then hurried back to the hotel to get cleaned up and got ready for my cousin Sydney's wedding reception. It was fun to see Syd and her new husband. They are the cutest couple!!

After the reception, we played games with Dennis and Hannah all night, and then continued the games on Sunday until it was time to go. On the way home, we stopped in Portland and had dinner with our sis-in-law Olivia and her two kids. We had a great trip, even though it was short.
