Sunriver

Dustin and I took my mom and dad over to Sunriver and show them the beauty of Central Oregon. It was ABSOLUTELY GORGEOUS and we wish we could have stayed there longer. It is always so peaceful over there, but the colors of fall were amazing - golds, ambers, oranges, reds, etc. I am ready to show the rest of my family this gorgeous part of Oregon. Mom and dad are starting to think that Oregon may actually be God's country, and not Colorado! That's a big step. Thanks so much to Dan and Evelyn (and Joseph for getting us the hook-up through his granparents) who gave us a killer deal on their vacation home over there. The 4 of us had the entire house to ourselves...I didn't get any photos of it but it is such a nice house. These are just a few of the things that we did:

1. Rode bikes around the whole community, along the Deshutes River
2. Grilled steaks, baked potatoes, and asparagus for a feasty dinner
3. Slept in king sized beds
4. Slept in and eat a great big breakfast of pancakes, eggs, and bacon
5. Went on a 7 mile hike along the Deshutes River...we were VERY tired at the end of it. There
were 2 waterfalls and a gorgeous meadow.
6. Took mom and dad to the Deshutes Brewery in Bend, Oregon.
7. Ate apple pie and icecream!!!!
8. Relaxed, relaxed, relaxed.
