I Forgot to write about the second half of our trip which was spent in North Bend (the Oregon Coast, and California). I realize now just how much driving we did! It was a long trip.....but we have already been planning our 2011 trip, the question is where shall we go? We got to go to lots of beaches on the coast, and Max and Grandpa Ralph enjoyed a canoe ride together. He was a little scared at first but he was a champ. I finally got to experience the beautiful Redwoods, another check off my list and Crater Lake. As we were driving up the mountain I started to loose my enthusiasm, but by the time we got there and we witnessed the beauty of this attraction completely made by nature, I stood in awe. After making it home, things went back to normal, however, Jacob and I were reminded that school starts again soon.

Yesterday was Pioneer day. We got to spend a lot of family time together. We took Max swimming at Laura and Nathan's pool. It's so much more fun to go when you have a little one. We also went to Red Butte gardens for the first time. It was pretty, but after walking around for 5 minutes I think we were all ready to leave. They had a cute little park for kids that was designed just for them. That would make it worth it to buy a membership for when Milian gets older.
