Shahalie & Koosaw Falls

For Thanksgiving we went over to my cousin Jon's and his wife Becky's house just outside of Eugene. They had at least 30 people there. We all had a good time, but Miles and Sydney had such a good time that they decided to stay for a couple more nights. Mom and Dad will bring them home. Karen, Ethan, and I spent Thanksgiving night at cousin Polly's and husband Steve's house and they took us on a tour of the University of Oregon campus in the morning. On our drive home in the afternoon we stopped for a quick walk on the side of the McKenzie river where we saw the Shahalie and Koosaw Falls. Yup, more footage of beautiful waterfalls...

Badlands

It's been almost a month since my last post. I've been busy with work lately and I took a few long bike rides on the weekends instead of going on family outings (2 weekends ago my neighbor and I rode up to Mt Bachelor). But, last weekend we did get out to the Badlands wilderness area just east of town. Mom and Dad, the boys, and Sydney's friend Rachelle came along. Fun day.
