Standing in the Wind: Photos from March 2008 Oregon Trip

Here are some photos from our March trip to Oregon. We are still working on the blog, but I wanted to get a few photos posted in the meantime.

Juan and Mary Lu at Enchanted Forest

Looking in at The Seven Dwarfs cottage

With Grandma Ruthy and Great-Grandma Eleanor

Entering the Enchanted Castle with Grandma Ruthy

Say, "Where are you going, Mary Lu?" Now, repeat that
300 times. . .

Checking out Little Miss Muffet. Mary Lu kept
trying to get through the fence. Appalled, I imagine,
that no one else was coming to Miss Muffet's aid with
the whole spider situation.

Outside The Gingerbread House

Investigating the couch with Uncle Zach

Smiley Mary Lu

Big Kiss

The Mohawk. On this first day, it was a sort of
James Dean inspired look. When we styled it at
home it was a true mohawk. I'll get a better photo
on here soon. He was over it within the week and
now he says he'll just get one every summer.

Mary Lu gets a bang trim from Mary (family friend).

Juan and Mary Lu challenge Grandma Ruthy to make
the bed.

Mary Lu calls me out.

Playing Wii with Uncle Zach. Wii was a VERY big
hit with Juan. He and Zach made many, many "me
people". Juan was hysterical most of the time and
once laughed so hard he threw up. This happens
periodically for Juan.

Guitar Hero

Grandpa Randy brings out a German children's poetry book.
None of us speak German.

I can only imagine that Juan was telling Elsie's
dog about Leafy and her less-than-desirable
traits. Look how sad the dog looks. Elsie and
Emmett are our friends Laura and Jay's
children. I'm having a lot of grammatical
confusion with that sentence.
