Oregon


We were able to go to Oregon this past week to visit family. While we were there, they threw us the nicest shower! It was themed after the nursery colors and decorations. We felt very blessed by everyone's care and support. Here's a picture of our family members who organized the lovely event- Karen (Andy's mom), Kathy (Andy's aunt), Andy and Arianna, Steve and Kathy (Arianna's uncle and aunt), Tamaryn (Arianna's sister), and Vern and Sheri (Arianna's mom and dad). It was quite the celebration!


Here are the good lookin' great grandma's- Great Grandma Bennett from Arianna's side on the left and Great Grandma Brown from Andy's on the right.





Andy got to stay and help open gifts. It was fun for him to be able to be part of the opening process, instead of just getting to move and store all the goods.







Andy's little brother, Sean, worked so hard during the shower! You can barely catch him in a picture because he is running so fast. He handed off the gifts, passed them out to the guests for viewing, threw away the wrapping, and then stored the gifts out of the way! That's some multi-tasking for a ten year old!





We decided to visit Punchbowl Falls at Eagle Creek, which is where we got engaged. Let's just say that it was a learning experience for what a pregnant Arianna can do. For example, Arianna will not climb up and down over four miles to see a waterfall that will, Lord willing, still be there after she is no longer pregnant.











Can't wrap up our Oregon trip without a picture of our cute nephew, Sawyer. He and Andy spent hours playing together while Arianna's parents were babysitting.

Arianna,
What a beautiful dress! I love it. Can I request a side view of the belly next time you post?
Love, Andie
