Our trip to Salem!!!

We had such a great time in Salem, Oregon with
Jennifer, Tyson, Merrick, Berkleigh and Quincy.

We went for Quincy's Blessing which was
fabulous. It was so fun to have her blessed on Easter Sunday.
Quincy looked so cute with her dress and shoes that
Jennifer designed.




During our visit...we went to the Tillamook cheese factory....
We pretended to be cows... sampled lots of flavors of cheese and tried their fabulous ice cream. Merrick's looks like a chunk of cheese on a cone but it was actually orange sherbert.

We also went to the tulip farm... it was so beautiful with all the different colors.  

We went on the perfect weekend when all of the cherries trees were in bloom around the capitol....and the sun was out for the whole weekend...it was perfect.
We climbed to the top of the capitol on a spiral staircase to get a close up of the golden man. He reminded me of Moroni carrying his cloak...just before making it into the title of Liberty. I know...he really needs a sword instead of an axe...but he still reminds me of Moroni.

It was a little sunny.....
but we're not complaining.


The rest of our trip we played with babies...
made cookies and shopped the latest trends.. It was great. We can't wait to go back again!!!
