"Life is just like an old time rail journey ... delays, sidetracks, smoke, dust, cinders, and jolts, interspersed only occasionally by beautiful vistas and thrilling bursts of speed. The trick is to thank the Lord for letting you have the ride." Gordon B. Hinckley

Trip to Oregon

Josh’s brother Jon got married in Oregon so Josh and Raegan and I flew down there for a few days to go to the wedding in the Portland Oregon temple. It was Josh and Raegan’s first time flying and I had only flown once as a little girl so pretty much first time flyers for us all. It was quite an experience! Josh forgot his drivers license so they wouldn’t let us through the gate, I packed something with too much liquid, we tried to get on the airplane with Raegan’s car seat and stroller. We were just a mess!! Raegan was a good little flyer and she didn’t seem to be bothered by it at all so that was good. We made it to the wedding and my heal broke on my shoe, it was raining and cold and nasty but we survived. We spent a lot of time stuck in slow traffic because the traffic there is horrible, so I just sat in the back seat with Raegan and took pictures of her smiling at me. Oregon is a beautiful place to visit and we were glad to be able to make it to Jon and Ariel’s wedding. It was a fast trip but nice to get away for a few days and my Mom was so sweet to stay at the house with my kids and take care of them.DSC_7811-2phone pictures 125DSC_7813DSC_7819DSC_7814phone pictures 123DSC_7817DSC_7822DSC_7824
