Vacation!

I know, I know. You're all shocked that I'm posting again. Me too! :-)

We just got back from a visit to Portland to see my family. It was so nice to see everyone, but it was kinda sad that my sister wasn't around. It was weird to see my brother in law and the girls on their own, but it seems that they are mostly doing pretty well. I think in the long run they'll be so much better off. Sad. Okay the point of this was not to be sad. The point was to post some pics of the trip. Jeff went up with us for the first week. Unfortunately the weather wasn't great for the time he was there, so we didn't get to do a lot of outdoor stuff, but we still had fun! :-)


It's hard to get five kids to sit still and look at the camera simultaneously!

Just one more

I'm going to post just one more travel blog about one of my dream vacations. Some day when my kids are grown, and Jeff is retired we can travel. I have never been to anywhere in Europe, but I would sure love to go to Spain some day!

My ideal trip would involve lots of cultural stops. I'd love to visit the The Medieval Towns and Villages Route that goes from the Basque Country to Extremadura. I'd much rather visit small, out of the way, old places than go to the same tourist spots that everyone sees.

I'd also stop in two major cities, Madrid and Barcelona. If you ever make it to Spain, send me a postcard, and check out Hotels in Madrid or Hotels in Barcelona. Or if you want the Spanish version check out Hoteles en Barcelona.
