Pumpkin Patch

We drove out to Sauvie Island to meet the Garners at a Pumpkin patch. We got to drive across this awesome bridge! It was huge!
We hopped out of the car and Nathan spotted a baby frog hopping along. The kids loved it.

We walked through the pumpkin patch trying to find the perfect pumpkin. No luck.

We wondered around to another pumpkin patch. Mini pumpkins. Just the right size!


After picking out the perfect pumpkins, we rode on the tractor ride. It was lots of fun.


Then it was time for the corn maze.
Lucky we had Nathan to direct us through. Jonny loved the maze.
We never found the Garners. Turns out we were at the wrong pumpkin patch. Oh well, It was a very fun day!

OMSI/Bike Ride

We went on a family bike ride in Milwauki. The bike path followed a train track down into Portland. We rode by the river and ended up at a museum in Portland. OMSI. Oregon Museum of Science and Industry. It was a great place. They have a submarine that you can tour. (We will do that some other day). We went in and saw a movie about the universe. It was a lot of fun.

Multnomah Falls

We spent a Saturday being tourists in Oregon. We went to the Columbia River and threw a lot of rocks. It was very windy. We had fun.

While the kids took a nap we drove the scenic route to Multnomah Falls.

Beautiful!

We hiked to another waterfall first. It was cool.

Then we walked to Multnomah Falls. It was beautiful. There were a lot of people there though. We didn't know it was such a huge tourist attraction. It was cool to see though.

It was a great family day!

Part 2

We drove to the coast with Kristin, Reese, Kjirsten and Rob. We went camping for a night and spent the next day at the beach.


There was a little of this.....

Some yummy food.....

A lot of playing....

And visiting.

Then there was this!

Ahhhh, so nice.

Kristin and Reese

We had a lot of fun with Kristin and Reese. We went to Council Crest Park. The kids ran around and around and around. They had a great time together.

I'm not sure about these kids sometimes.

Emily had a little bit too much fun running around. She got a time out for running too far away.
The park had a great view of 3 cascade peaks. It was a beautiful day.
