ROAD TRIP!!!

On June 13th madi and i took off on a road trip.

Our first stop was in Salem at my friend

Fahlene's house.

Madison and fahlene are wiped out!

Our next stop was at my sisters in Corvallis.

My nephew Kaden painting his masterpiece!

My sister and her family took us for a

walk around their neighborhood.

Kaden loves his cousin Madi!!

It was the weekend of Kaden's 3rd birthday

and he got this awesome spiderman scooter!!

While in Corvallis Madi and I met up with my

best friend Sarah for breakfast.

Sarah loving on madi
finally someone took a pic of me and madi!!

Next stop...

Ashland to see my grandma Hammond.

(Heather and Kaden tagged along.)

This is Madi and Kaden's great grandma

GG!!

Kaden decides to teach madi how to

play trouble.

Grandma GG has a pool at her place

so this was madis first time at the pool!

(grandma Nana got her this cute suit).

Kaden lets madi know that her

binky is safe!! He is only 3 and he can

swim. He dove down and got the binky

from the bottom of the pool.

Kaden you rock!!

Madi is chillen in her tube!

she loves the water and we will

be joining water babies this summer.

"OK mom lets go I'm cold!"
Thanks for the stay GG! We love you and

hope to see you soon!

OK so my sister Heather claims that she

has never made a quilt before but this is the

gift she made for Madison!

It is beautiful and Madi will have it

forever.

Thanks Auntie Heather!!

I think kaden wants it!
These guys are like two peas in a pod!

Madison loves it!!!!




So after we left GG's house we decided to head to

Lithia park before we left Ashland.

This park is beautiful!

It has lots of trails and a duck pond at the top.

Madison slept through most of it

but kaden had a blast.

After leaving Ashland i took Heather and Kaden

back to Corvallis and on to Bend I went.

(8 hours in the car!!!)

We stayed at grandma Pickles house.

My Aunt and Uncle were having a birthday

party for their youngest son Bronco. so

grandma, Madi and I went.

Bronco just loved playing with madi and now wants

a baby sister. (sorry carol)

Madi and her Great Aunt Carol.

My good friend Luann lives in Bend so we

had to stop by and say HI.


Lu's son Micheal with Madi.
Thanks for the visit!

We love you and cant wait for your next visit!!








So my last stop was my parents house in

prineville.

Dad thought it would be fun to torture their dog Scout.
Madis not impressed.

Madisons first encounter with a horse.

She loved it.

My little sister Brittnee lives in Prineville

so she came over to visit her niece.

Time to say goodbye.
Madisons is tuckerd out!


After 1043 miles in the car and

a week away from home

we made it back safe and sound.

Daddy is so happy to see his favorite girls!
