Oregon...family, friends, and spicy cheese

One of our favorite parts of our Oregon vacation was visiting family and friends along the way. When the Mr. and I graduated college, our first jobs out of school were in Washington/Oregon. We met so many people we loved and are blessed to still have as a part of our lives. Here are just a few.

The Staley's were just newlyweds back then. They're such a blast to be with and have a family of awesome kids (missing two of their kids cause one was taking the photo and the other was at college). They took these pictures - too funny!

Old age and treachery beat out youth and skill this time. Bah ha ha ha!

Next we got to visit my niece's family, the Davidson's. I totally forget to take pictures of people when we're visiting. It's just so much fun talking and hearing stories that I never think of it! I did happen to catch a picture of her adorable little boy on the slide with Hunter. Loved this little boy!

Last we got to see Danielle, my co-worker from back in the day and though the Mr. and I moved away after three years in Washington/Oregon, we got to come back to see her and Michael get married. Now they have an awesome family and are the best parents two kids could have. Thanks Danielle for thinking to ask Michael to take this picture!

Amidst all the driving that it took to get out to the coast and back, Hunter got a little driving practice in this cheesy van.

Got to love Hunter's face in this one. Crazy Zac!

The Tillamook Cheese Factory had fabulous chocolate ice cream and seriously spicy cheese. Yum!
