Is this Scotwind?

This is the question we get from Zoe each time we pack the car up and drive to somewhere else. Then we exlain we have to get on a plane to go to Scotland. When we go to bed at night she asks "will I sleep here tomorrow too?"

Only three more weeks to go....Where we have been over the last week.....

After leaving my mom's in Eugene we headed for Bend. Some great friends from Trinity gave us their vacation home in Sunriver to stay in so we were in the same place for three nights. We had great time with my (Janette) Dad and his wife Phyllis. I call her my step-monster but the truth be told, she is really caring, loving and a lot of fun to be with not a monster at all!

Highlights from Bend with the McMurran's:

*Having them over to "our place" for dinner.

*Dustin taking the girls fishing and teaching them how to cast.

*Our 15 mile family bike ride (pulling the girls in a trailer).

*Janette and Phyllis time--lunch and shopping just the two of us.

*Dinner in town with dad & Phyllis and then seeing all their "hot rod buddies" at the DQ Cruzin.

*Lily and Zoe loved getting to ride in Grandpa's hot rod--see the pictures. Grandpa even peeled out in his own neighborhood and had an elderly lady shake her head at him!

*Walks in Sunriver to get ice cream--every evening!

*Hot tubbing after getting ice cream.

Thanks Dad and Phyllis for being so hospitable, for taking the time for us and caring about us.

Oh yes, how dare I fail to mention that we got to see Dustin fish at his secret spot and catch a fish! Lily and Zoe thought it was neat to touch it--until they smelled their hands!
