Rest of our Oregon trip

Anyone who knows Lee Eastman (grandpa), knows how much he LOVES to talk and tell stories. Him and Madix were just sitting at the table for the longest time having a little snack, just talking and talking.

He even talked baby Tayte's ear off, but she seemed to enjoy it:) She was just in awe of him.

The last day in Oregon we went for a little walkabout.

It was a beautiful trail, with little waterfalls.

Tayte REALLY enjoyed it too:)


Poor Jenny had to carry Madix most the way, she kept whining. We LOVE Aunt Jenny, she is the absolute best Aunt in the world!!

Oregon was Tylers paradise. Her favorite thing to do at our house is to go out back and look for little tiny bugs, and she'll find one every now and then and capture it. So if you can imagine her in Oregon..... She got to hold a frog!

It's hard to see, but she's holding a big lizard here.

A chicken!! It was very entertaining watching Jenny and Amanda trying to catch this chicken:)

I am so glad Ty drew the line on this one! This is a huge, gross, slimy, snail or slug or some weird creature. Ty would not hold this one. I think Lilly had slime stuck on her hands for the rest of the day.

Madix on the other hand is not so adventurous when it comes to holding things. She wanted nothing to do with the chickens.

Jen showed Ty where the chickens liked to be petted.

Collecting eggs from Jenny's chicken coupe.

I didn't get a good picture of his property, but this is Stacey's back yard. The kids played outside for hours.

Lilly got a lilly pad out of their pond for Ty to hold.

Holden and Madix

Stace, peddling them around out in their pond.


This is hilarious, so Shayna was out of town all week and Stace was home taking care if all 4 of his little kids by himself. This tells a lot.... Vienna walking around naked, eating a dog biscuit!:) No, he really did do a great job, and sure does appreciate his wife a lot more! ALL men should experience that!

Just hangin out on the back porch, enjoying beautiful Oregon! It was a great trip!

Okay some of those photos made me laugh! So fun. I wonder if Ashton even knows what bugs are? Mom tried getting him to hold a frog and Andrew thought it was so gross, it was so funny. Living in the country is so different. How fun to have the girls experience Chickens!!
