Trip to Oregon

I've been a little backed up in postings.  Ugh.  I would like to say we have been very busy, but the truth is... we've had lots of snow days and some relaxing weekends so I really have no excuse.  But on with the story...

Over the MLK holiday week, we all got to go to Oregon.  Kim to work in Oregon, Chris to work from "home" and Lily to hang out with her family.  It was a great week.  Lily got some serious quality family time in and even got to go to Chuck E. Cheeses with all her cousins, go to the Carousel in Salem two times, and have lunch with Courtney near Willamette University where she is teaching.  Not too mention some quality time with the Cremers which she thoroughly enjoyed.  She even got to play with all Courtney's old toys.  It was a fun filled 9 days and we even missed a snow storm in DC.  It was so warm in Oregon in fact that they daffodils were starting to come out.  Wow.
