Cook out!!

It was so fun having Myles and Brenda here. We were planning their next trip while they were still here. We still have so much to do and see in Bend with them. We wish they could have stayed longer and Brad wishes we had taken more time to decorate the house.... I guess that will have to wait until the next trip.
Can't wait for them to come again!
My full freezer is happy they came too.

Fun times! I like Ethan's "Y" hat!
I think I want to get my hands on that dessert! Looks so beautiful out there!
Wow, if I ever come visit you, will we have that much fun (and food)? It seems like you have a lot of places with the word Butte in them, which I pronounce as "butt" because I'm so mature!
That's great that Brenda finally made it out there for a visit! Looks like such a fun time. I love looking at all your pictures and adding your adventures to the list of things I want to do next time we're there for a visit. Definitely have to do the lava tubes again! That was so neat!
Busy, busy!!!! Looks like your having way too much fun:)
