Oregon Trip 2012

We just came back from a wonderful trip to Oregon where we were able to visit Cody and his family and Janet's aunt Myrna (Grandpa Thorson's oldest sister).  Grandma Thorson came along and stayed overnight with Myrna (who is 96 years old and doing real well!)

Here are some photos of the trip:

Salt Lake Airport

 Arrival at Portland (Looking at the Columbia River out the airplane window).

 A view of Portland as we landed.

 Happy faces as we arrive in Corvallis at Cody and Tricia's home.

 Wesley was telling us about his life as a Knight and a Fighter.

We were in heaven, seeing our grandchildren,  and Cody and Tricia!

 A nature walk with Wesley is always so much fun!

 A poor little lost night-crawler that Wesley rescued and put back in the grass so the birds wouldn't get it.

 Grandma and her sister-in-law Myrna at Myrna's home in South Beach next to Newport, Oregon.

 Following are some pictures of the Myrna's home and the view it has:

 A regular customer and a neighbor to Myrna

 One of Myrna's cats.

We had a nice breakfast the morning we left at a restaurant in Corvallis with Cody's family 

 Here is a view of Antelope Island from the airplane porthole as we returned to the Salt Lake airport.

We sure had fun with Cody and his family while we were there, and here is a little sample of some of the rowdy activity.  There is no sound with this video clip, none needed to enjoy the fun.

Christmas and New Years 2011

We had a wonderful Christmas season and saw everyone this year.  Cody and Tricia, Wesley and Roslyn surprised us before Christmas and stayed for Christmas Day.  Lance and Kara, Tanna, Isaac and Sam and Vicky and Kurt, Adessa and Jexten came after Christmas and stayed through the New years.  Melissa and Curt, Matthew and Hailey came and went often as they live in Rexburg.  We had a lot of good food, fun times and memories.  Thanks everyone for a wonderful time.  We love our family!
