Easter Oregon Livestock Show

The Monday after school got out, we headed to Oregon to visit Jon's parents. We had a wonderful week and loved being away from the busy-ness of life! On Tuesday, we took Jon's mom and dad letterboxing. (If you haven't heard about it - it's great. It's free. It's fun. It's everywhere! www.letterboxing.org). We had actually stopped and did a letterbox on the drive up. There was one in Snowville at the rest area. On the way home, we did one too - in Jerome, ID at a rest stop. The kids had a blast. Well, we looked this one up and Diane (Jon's mom) knew right where the location was. We drove there and the kids had a great time looking for it. Thankfully, it was there!

Hailey was a great traveler!

After letterboxing, we stopped and got icecream at Haught's. It was super yummy and the kid's cones were only $0.25.

On Wednesday, Jon drove to Boise to pick up his sister Beth and her two boys. The kids had a great time playing with Kyle & Tyler. Jon & Beth took the kids swimming.

While we were there, the Stock Show came to town. That means we got to go to the carnival, see a parade, see pigs, sheep, & cows that kids had raised and we got to go to a rodeo! What fun!


Hannah loved all the rides

Kyle wasn't impressed with the rides until he rode some faster ones!
