My brother and his family drove all the way from Utah to our little corner of Oregon last weekend to visit us over the holiday. How nice is that? I always feel like we live in the middle of nowhere, meaning we are not really on the way to anywhere, so it meant a lot that they would drive 13 hours just for the pleasure of visiting us. Thanks, guys!
We had a great time while they were here and they tolerated my three-ring circus very nicely. Their little boy, E., is a sweetie. It was so much fun to see how he has grown and changed so much since I last saw him a year ago. He is sweet-tempered and playful and outgoing and so much fun (and behaved very well, contrary to what his parents may have thought.)
It was kind of a short visit, but we tried to do a few fun things: eating out frequently, visiting Ashland, hiking, going to parks, staying up late talking and watching movies. Sadly, we were a little short on pictures (I will be punishing Jared later for taking 83 pictures of wildflowers and 0 pictures of all the cousins together...just kidding, I love you, honey!) so you can check out my sister-in-law's very cool blog if you want to see more of our exploits.
Thanks for coming, guys! We had a great time and have a lot of happy memories. We will be crashing your place in a few short weeks!

I am glad to hear that other people's husbands forget to take pictures of the people too. I gave Nate a hard time because we had 200 scenery/wildlife pictures and only two with people in them. Silly boys!
What a funny picture of E! And I wish I had checked the exposure on the camera before I took that shot of you guys--sorry!
It was so much fun visiting you. Thanks for being such great hosts. Can't wait to see you soon.
