Spring Break

 87 years later...I'm back!  Maybe I'll designate a day to be my "update blog" day.  In the mean time, I need to do a recap on the month of March!  Al, Mary Lou and Sky came out for the week of spring break.  Our main goal of their time here besides having a fun and relaxing trip was to brain-wash Skylar as much as possible to come to college out here.  So we started off their trip with a Ducks baseball game...of which I have no pictures.  The next day we did a walking tour of campus and got him hooked up with the proper UofO hoodie.  

 We climbed around at the columns, the local outdoor climbing wall, hiked up the butte downtown for a photo opt, then took the kids to a favorite park.

Even Sky got into playing with the kids

 

  In the down time we worked on getting the garden ready, seeds planted and Sky gave Parker a lesson on drawing.

Orangie loved Sky's suitcase!

One of the days Aaron had off of work we went to the coast.  It was beautiful out with a good amount of wind to get a couple of kites flying.  Sky and Parker had a blast climbing up and running down the sand dunes.  We were the only ones of the beach for quite awhile!

And of course, it wouldn't be a complete trip without a fishing trip or two!  I instructed the boys to take a bunch of pictures...this is all I got.

Until next time, Olsen posse!
