While we were away...

Like I've mentioned before, Dave's parents watched our kids while we were in Alaska. They did a great job! Thank you! Thank you! Thank you!
They worked a little...
making masks...
making candles...
and driving a large boat!
But mostly they played...
...with Stilts,
Evidently everyone watching Taylor on stilts thought she was the instructor. (Sorry about the orientation of the video, I couldn't rotate it for some reason)
with Cousins...
Christiana & Lauren (Christiana is 5 weeks older than Lauren)

...and with Grandpa!
They visited some pretty cool places...
Such as the Children's Museum...
the Carousel...
and Classic Car Show...

We can't forget the train ride up Mount Hood...
I think the kids had almost as much fun as we did!

Once we were all back together again,
we hiked up to a waterfall...
...had a picnic, and swam in a freezing river!
Dave's brothers (Sam & Andy) joined us...
Sam & Dave (they are 19 months apart...Dave's the oldest!)
It was a marvelous vacation!
