Camping in Cascadia

The threat of rain was a great perk to our weekend because it scared off all the camping crowds that tend to dominate the Memorial Day holiday.  We met up with some friends from Medford and had a perfectly classic time eating good campfire food, freezing during the night, talking around the fire, hiking, and feeling triumphant for sleeping all night on the ground.

Megan came home from her mission recently and for the first time in over 18 months my family was all together.  It was wonderful, even with so many passionate personalities finding their new spots in the family dynamics again. It was especially fun as this was the first time Megan met her brother-in-law.  Family can be so fun!

And on the gold course

Practicing what we thought were pretty good swings until Mike showed us all up and quickly becoming dad's favorite! 

We got to spend some time with fantastic relatives and enjoyed their new additions.  I think Mike was a little scared that we both enjoyed the babies so much. 

Proof that Mike is now dad's favorite - he let him ride his motorcycle!
