After visiting my family we went and spent the rest of the week with the Bundys. Again, I disappointed myself with the lack of photo I took, but here are some. Above we are in the gorge with my sister-in-law/dear friend Julie. We enjoyed a long, beautiful hike up to Oneita falls. On our hike up there we passed three large waterfalls, going behind one of them, and playing in the water at the top of the last one. Emma was such a champ for doing the 4.5 mile hike in her crocs! Also, Ryan dared her to lick a slug and she did! They both did. It's something that was learned at outdoor school, it makes your tongue numb. Emma is such a champ! At the top of the falls we all waded our feet. The water was freezing but felt so good. It was all we could do to keep Lydia from swimming in the river, but we stripped her down and let her wade. I'm so glad that we have girls who love the outdoors and who we can train to be a little bit daring.
Emma had so much fun with her Bundy cousins. We went to the duck pond to pick blackberries, feed the ducks, and let the kids have races. We didn't intend on picking so many blackberries but we had enough to come home and make a yummy cobbler with them. It was a perfect Sunday evening.
On our last day we went to the zoo with Grandpa Clay. The girls loved it but I think Ryan and his dad loved it even more, especially since they brought their laser pointers.We had such a great time with the Bundys and hopefully it won't be two years before we make it home again!

Emma did not lick a slug--- say it isn't so! What a girl. Who needs boys, right? What a fun recap on your awesome vacation. But no pictures of Cannon Beach? What's wrong with you? I'm glad you all had such an awesome time.
What fun trips! I love all of your pictures and am so glad you could see your family on the northern coast. I'm sorry you've had to leave your parents house too, but excited for your new place.
Bundy's already moved on to a new bug-eating friend?! I NEVER would have guessed that it would be Emma. Will he even need Brody anymore? :) It was fun to see pictures of your fun trip, but I want to hear more about it, so we must talk on the phone again, soon!
Sounds like a fun trip! Your sister's house is darling! Let get the girls together soon.
