Mom and Dad came down for a visit last weekend and we had so much fun! One of Dad's old players owns a major radio station down here and said if he and my Mom were ever in the area to visit he would love to spoil them. Well, that he did! He put them up in a nice hotel with indoor and outdoor pools, golf for 2 at the Golf Course by the river (which we unfortunately didn't have time to use because of Peter's schedule), and a wonderful dinner at Crossroads Stake House. We had so much fun playing in Bend at Drake park, swimming at the pool, having picnics, shopping, we had a sleepover at the hotel, and we went to the Bite of Bend. By Sunday we were tuckered out, but got adventurous after church with a little trip to the fish hatchery and to see the head of the Metolious. That was spectacular, so beautiful and amazing that a river can bubble up from what seemed like nothing! Anyways, thanks Mom and Dad for making the trip down, we had a blast!
All they wanted to do was swim, swim, swim!
At the Fish Hatchery at Wizard Falls
I didn't get any good pictures of it but we found this bench right on the bank of the pond and there was this huge daddy fish that swam right up to us. Charley had some fish food left in her pocket and she kept plunkin' food to the fish, one bite at a time. It was hilarious to watch her do it over and over, she was enthralled! And it seemed like she had a bottomless pocket, that fish food just kept comin', and her little arm just kept throwin, it was hilarious! The closer she threw the food, the closer the fish got - it was not intimidated one bit!
At Drake Park there was this beautiful swan that the kids thought was so cool.
I thought this was so cute of my two girls hand-in-hand with Papa!
Aahhh, pool-side bliss!
Makenna got her face painted at the Bite of Bend. 
Papa helpin Charley swim, she just loved that!
Catchin' lunch at Carl's Jr., it was quite yummy!
Another cool shot at Drake Park after our picnic.
Unfortunately I had forgotten the camera when we went to the Bite of Bend and out to our really nice dinner, too bad - we missed some good shots! The kids got to jump and play in the big inflatable "rides" which was so fun. When we ate at Crossroads Stakehouse they started us off outside and it was beautiful dining right along-side the river. However a bit of a thunder storm started up so we moved inside. It was still a great time! Love you guys!
