Oregon February 2015

Prior to the Sisters' Hawaii trip, I got to spend four days with the Brewsters.  Jessica and Quin picked me up from Brenda's in Portland and we spent the afternoon at the Portland Zoo.

Quin loved watching the elephants

 Neil and Gideon drove up the Springfield that night to see us!  Saturday morning we went to achildren's museum called the Science Factory.  Quin loved the ball pit.

That afternoon we hiked nearby Spencer Butte.  It was only a mile each way, but steep with a beautiful view from the top.

 Monday morning we drove to Corvallis for Jessica's ultrasound.

It's a boy!!!

We had dinner at great grandma's with Ken's family

So glad I had a chance to spend time with the Brewsters, both of my brothers and some of their families and my parents.  New Hampshire and August family reunions are too far away!!
