Thanksgiving.












































































































I know that it is clear after Christmas now but I have been super swamped with work and in my free time I am trying to do something that will give me an energy boost to keep going. Lately that has been craft projects (I will post about those soon).

For Thanksgiving we went to Oregon. We met my parents on the coast and rented a condo right on the beach. It was so much fun. It snowed on the beach though. Maddyn hated the water and was super scared that it was going to sweep her into the ocean. She wanted to just walk up by the rocks. Zobug had to be bundled up in a blanket so she never saw the ocean. The drive was really long. It took us 21 hours to get there and 3 days to get back. The girls were REALLY done driving after that. The drive back was snow packed the whole way. We saw at least 20 wrecks. We were so lucky we were able to take OUR truck because we would have never made it back safe. While in Oregon we went to the Tillamook Cheese Factory (yes Trevor they make cheese there not Cheesecake :0). We also went to an aquarium, light houses, played bingo, and made many walks on the beach.
Maddyn loved spending time with Grandma and Grandpa and being spoiled! The highlight of the trip for the boys was going to the Oregon State Football game. My dad retired the week before the trip so we treated him to a game. They were in the covered chushy seat section. The boys loved it and the game was also very exciting.
