Some choice pictures from our vacation to San Diego this month...

I didn't think I was gonna have to worry about these types of shananigans until he was at least a teen...

Partyin' naked in the pool...

But at least he has good taste in beer...

Weekend in the Wallowas

The Wallowas are located about 8 hours from Eugene in the far northeast corner of Oregon.  We stayed at a bed and breakfast called Little Ranch B&B just outside the town of Joseph.  We had originally thought to camp, and ended up being really glad we didn't, as there were CRAZY thunderstorms and downpours all weekend...

 The view from the B&B looks out over Chief Joseph mountain.  Lucy was trying to play with the horses... she was wanting them to chase her.  I think she thought they were giant dogs.

Jaxon thinks Nature is delicious

Hanging out at Terminal Gravity Brewing on a rainy day (in Enterprise, OR)

 Hiking the Chief Joseph Trail

8 hours in the car with a baby made us all go a little bananas...

4th of July Weekend!

 Jaxon and Miller Deciding what they want to blow up first...

Yay America!

Not so excited to be at the pool...

Hiking along the McKenzie River at Belnap Hot Springs with Janelle and Mike!

Hiking is so exhausting!

Checking out the sweet grass at the Bite of Eugene with Della (his girlfriend)

A little more excited to be at the pool this time!

Walking?!

Jaxon is way closer to walking than crawling... he can't sit up on his own yet, but he can pull himself up from sitting to standing, and can take several steps!

Camping for Father's Day Weekend

We took Jaxon on his very first camping trip last weekend and overall it was a good trip.  We reserved 2 nights at Baker Bay on Dorena Lake just out of Cottage Grove (about 45 minutes from Eugene).  The weather was nice and we had a site right on the lake.  We only ended up staying one night, and decided to quit while we were ahead and left after dinner the second night.  Neighboring campers were up past 2am on one side, then our neighbors on the other side were up at 4am for a bass fishing tournament.  All-in-all it was a good trip and we look forward to camping with Jaxon in the future.

Dancin!
