It was off to Oregon for a long Labor Day weekend! Our niece Abby was getting baptized and we decided to head up for that so the kids could spend some time with their cousins. The drive was long(thank goodness for the DVD player!) but it was fun to go to the Portland area which we had never been to before. After the baptism, everyone enjoyed the great BYU win over Oklahoma! We went to the beach on Labor Day in Seaside, Oregon, where we played, ate lunch, roasted marshmallows, rode a carousel and had dinner. We also crossed the Columbia River into Washington State, another place we had never been! Zach loves his cousin Hallie. He is counting down the days until they come for a visit in November. He has adored her since she was a baby and she really enjoyed him this time too! They are very cute together. All the kids were!
For those of you going to the BYU game on Friday, if you look on your ticket(or just look at this one) you will see Tanner and his cousin Noah. It's really them, I promise! This is something they do after every winning game...high five the players. Too bad you can't see their faces, but we'll take it.
