We went on a trip to visit Nana {Pete's mom}, in Arlington, for her birthday. Now, I didn't realize there were so many Arlington's in our country......30 to be exact. Yeesh! Well, we went to the one in Oregon...population 524 {with our visit, we made it 534}. It was a lot of fun. We left just after Pete checked out of his classroom for the summer and stayed for the weekend. We ate lots of good food {go figure} and just had a blast doing lots of different things: hanging out at the marina {Arlington is on the Colombia River}, kayaking, watching movies {my SIL Heidi and I watched North & South--I highly recommend if you like the Pride & Prejudice type movies}, geocaching, reading {I read Rose Daughter--thanks Allison}, playing SET, and lots of other random things.
Nana has this...thing...not sure what it is...maybe a blanket or something. Anyway, Pete put it on and pretended to be a dog. Of course Jonas loved it.
Jonas absolutely ♥'s sunglasses:
***My fav***
Happy Birthday, Nana!

Hey blogging world. Let me introduce you to Herman.
Pretty much the UGLIEST fish I've ever seen {no offense, Herman}! You can see Tom, Cami, and Megan in the background.
They can get up to 12 feet long! I think he was 8 feet...maybe 10?!? I can't remember.

A spidey in the pretty flower!
Well, that was most of our trip. Check that one off of the list!

It looks like you guys had so much fun! I LOVE that area of the country... I would move thata way if I could! I can't believe how much you are planning on traveling this summer. So much fun!
Looks like a good time!
those pictures of jonas and the sunglasses are so precious! i love them!
First of all, I've lived in the Portland area for 21/2 years and never heard of Arlington. I LOVE the North and South series- haven't seen them for a long time, but I was hooked the whole way through. We love geocaching, too! It's way fun!
I want to go to Oregon sometime. It looks like you had fun. When are you coming down to Brigham again?
Looks like a fun trip. That pic of the spider web on the flower is awesome.
Okee, I just added North & South to my Netflix Queue. If I don't like it, you're in big trouble.
Awesome. Looked like fun.
