Long Bridge Swim

We were determined to get to the Long Bridge Swim this year as last year we made it half way there before having to turn around as the stomach flu claimed Drew.  Well, we made it this year with absolutely no illness!

Drew was looking forward to doing the swim and we were very excited to hang out with the Cheesmans and catch up with them!

We had a great weekend!  The boys did a great job. Drew wanted to make the 1.76 mile swim in under and hour and he came in at 59.30 minutes! Just under the wire.  It was his first race and he already has ideas of how he could shave his time down if he does it again next year just by knowing what to expect with the course more.  

We enjoyed time at the pool, played at the beach, hiked some trails and poked around town.  We even spent one morning out on the lake on a pontoon boat.  The kids as always got along wonderfully and really enjoyed their time together.

Sun River and Portland for Mid Winter Break

Drew had a conference in Sun River OR this past winter and we made the call to tag along for a little vacation.  Things were slightly dampened by the fact that it appears Cole has developed car sickness since the summer. Ugh.  The drive was so long! However, it was worth it in the end and we had a wonderful time relaxing in an amazing little chalet, enjoying the snow, sitting in the hot tub, sledding and skating!  Couldn't have asked for more fun!  A stop at our favorite in Mt. Hood - El burro loco! A glass of wine after our 6 hour road trip turned into 10 hours due to car sickness!  Right before our Owl Walk.  We were told we could walk into the wood and hear the owls. What a bust!  3 cold and tired kids in the dark woods and no owls!  It's now a running joke in our home as the  tour guide kept 'hooting' trying to draw the owl's attention.  If we want someone's attention in the house we often hoot at each other now...
