Oregon

As I said in the last post we went from the water park to Elko on Thursday night and then Friday morning we got up and headed to Klamath Falls, Oregon for Randi's cousin Lusann's wedding.  We had a little bit of free time before the wedding on Saturday so we hit up the Klamath County Fair.  It was a BLAST!
Rubber Duck race!

Now that we are parents we get to do the kid stuff without people looking at us like we are weird.  So we stopped by the kid corner and made some dirt babies.  They are pretty much homemade chia heads. You put dirt and some grass seed in a knee high and then glue on a face, put it in a cup of water in the sun and watch the hair grow.

Our finished products.

Another kid activity we participated in :)
Then it was off to see the animals.
The fair was a little too exciting for some of us :)

Hanging out with Great Grandma Norton
Then it was off to the wedding.  It was toasty, but beautiful.  


I loved her dress.
The happy couple

There were a lot of toasts at the wedding.  Before they started my younger cousins passed out cups to everyone.  We got really excited when the cups said Coors Light on them so even though we were only drinking sparkling cider we needed to have a little fun.  Here is a picture of our "bartender" :)
Grandma Norton walked around acting drunk with her cup.  This was her acting drunk while she was sitting down

Sunday morning we got up bright and early to drive all the way back to Utah (it is about a 12 hour drive).  Alden did really well in the car, thank goodness.   
He played with his toys.

And ate


And played with Dad's empty Pepsi bottle
We had a great time with the Norton family even though it was a lot of time in the car and a pretty quick trip.  After we got home Monday night we had just two and a half days to get ready to leave on our next trip to San Diego...
