Union, OR - June 8-11, 2016

The kids finished school on Friday, June 3rd.  They had a great school year, but it was sure fun to start summer vacation!

On Wednesday, June 8th, we headed for Union, OR to visit Jon's mom.  Union is always extra fun at the beginning of June with the Stock Show and carnival come to town.   Sarah (Jon's sister) was there and Beth (Jon's other sister) and her family were there as well.  The kids had a blast playing together and going over to the stock show and carnival were a highlight.

The giant slide was the favorite ride most of the little kids - I think Hailey went down it 100 times.  

 Kate, Hannah & Emily


 Hailey

 Jack & Lindsey

 Jared - he probably went down it 200 times :)

 We also visited the cemetery in Union where Jon's dad is buried



 We found a great funny ideas to put on headstones


This pic is obviously blurry, but there was a town parade and Jared and Hailey were pros at running out and grabbing candy.  It was a little rainy, but they didn't seem to mind.

We love going to visit Diane in Union and are so grateful to have kids that don't mind long car rides!

What a fun trip! I love Emily and Jack's faces on the slide. That headstone is hilarious! Don't worry, I won't write that on yours.
