A Little Trip





So it has taken me a little while to get this one posted. I had typing to do and the weather has been so nice that we spend a lot of time outdoors.

Last week John finished his last prerequisite class for school. We decided that this would be a good time to take a spontaneous trip to Sunriver, as we had not been there since Thanksgiving. The boys were very excited that we were going to Nana and Baba's house and I guess we were too because we ended up leaving a couple hours earlier than we were planning to. We had the most perfect weather there! Not too hot, not too cold. Baba was excited for the boys to see the new Caldera Springs playground, so that was the first thing we did Friday morning. It is very cool and the boys had a blast! We had lots of fun playing, riding bikes, and it was even warm enough for the pool, sort of. Eli would swim if it was 60 degrees, but the rest of us were a little cold on Sunday when we went. It was also neat that we could be there for father's day with Baba. We went to Typhoon for lunch, which was excellent, and then Nana and i went bead shopping (yipee!) for my birthday, which was early, but we probably won't see each other until after. We then spent the end of the day at the pool, the playground, and then going on a bike ride. Sunriver is probably one of my favorite places, not just for nostalgia, but it is truly beautiful, and I can't wait to see how Caldera Springs is going to change over the next few years. Just from last summer, the plants are really growing and flourishing. Baba did a great job! Here are some pictures from our weekend, most of them are from Caldera Springs as it is a very cool place and I highly recommend a visit (not intended as an advertising pitch!) The quilts are the ones that my mom made that are in the Lake House in Caldera Springs. The picture at the bottom where it looks like John is throwing something is his fly fishing class!

You sound like you all had a great time. The quilts are beautiful.
We need to get the boys together soon.
