Paul's brothers & Cheyenne came to visit in January. We got to do some awesome touristy stuff while they were here. Paul took them hiking around Multnomah Falls. We took a day to visit the Oregon coast. Who knew we would drive through snow on the way to the beach! If you're from the south that just makes no sense. An awesome & beautiful surprise, we got to play in the snow. It was freezing at the coast, we tried to watch for whales...who were supposed to be swimming by on their way to the south from 10am-12pm...how do they know that anyway? We must have missed them b/c we didn't get there until 12:30, I was ticked. We spent the other days in Portland at Powells city of books, getting coffee at the Pied Cow (Hooka anyone? just kidding!), eating at BJs, & of course hanging out with the Etheridges. We had so much fun & their trip went by way too fast! Here are some other pictures...
Can you believe how stinkin' beautiful this is? It was incredible. We froze our butts off, but it was so worth it to see this part of God's creation. 
Wow! How incredibly beautiful and incredibly cold!! I know you had a wonderful time together! And such a blessing that you enjoy being together! Psalm 133: "How good and pleasant it is when brothers live together in unity..." I remember not too many years ago when it wasn't so!! Love, Mom
