Trip to Oregon - Sunday and Monday

This last week we went to Oregon for a family reunion and a few days of relaxation. We had a ton of fun and did lots of stuff. Since I don't have a lot of time to scrapbook lately, I am going to post a lot of our pictures here so that when I do have time to scrapbook I will remember what all of the pictures are. Just a warning: it was cold and windy, so we don't look all that great in a lot of these pictures.

We spent Sunday through Wednesday in Newport. We had a house on Yaquina Bay with some of the Harrison Family. Below is a map of where Newport is in Oregon.

It was Jenna's first time on a plane. Here she is getting ready to board. She did so well. She fell asleep as soon as we took off and woke up as soon as wed landed. This was the only picture we took on Sunday. We spent the afternoon driving around Newport waiting for the rest of the Harrison's to arrive, then getting settled in.

It was FREEZING! We didn't stay long. We went to Uncle Ken's rental house for dinner and karaoke. I was really surprised that people actually did the karaoke. It was fun.

Jenna wouldn't touch the starfish. There was a fisherman who caught it and let us play with it for a little while.
