Christmas break in Oregon

A couple of days after Christmas, we were able to drive to Oregon to spend a couple of days with Jon's mom and dad, his siblings Rebecca, Tom & Anne and our neice Emily. The kids were great in the car (520 miles) and we had great weather.

The kids were showered with more Christmas gifts the night we arrived. We ate delicious food, played a ton of games (Ticket to Ride Nordic Countries, Quirkle & gin), watched movies, played the Wii, made scones & bread and just enjoyed being there.

What a great family we have!

Diane showed the kids how to make her delicious bread - soooo yummy!

I love that you can see Jack sitting in the background. He's slowed down a ton and his memory isn't very good any more, but he happily sits in his chair and watches what is going on. He's such a wonderful man and sweet Diane has a guaranteed spot in heaven for all the care she has given him.
