Ashlynn in Ashland

Ryan and I left the girls with my parents and got to take Ashlynn down to Ashland for a quick visit a couple weeks ago. The whole time I was thinking about how much fun Adie and Eliza would be having, but thankful I didn't have to think about how and when they were going to nap and what kind of mood they were going to be in when they woke up. I also got to actually have conversations with my sisters. It was fun to just get to focus on Ashlynn for a couple of days too, I just felt bad for her in the back seat all by herself...

This was funny - but only those of us who were there can really appreciate it. Poor Ian was tired after a long day of turkey and then mushroom hunting (Ryan came home with a big bag of morrells which we really enjoyed!).

Gus waited up for us to get there - that was a treat for Ashlynn. She was worked up the last 20 minutes of the drive and calmed right down once she saw her baby whisperer cousin.

Vinny, I love how he's trying not to crack up in this picture.

Gus signed up for his first year of baseball, Ryan and I both had fun playing catch with him - he's got quite a fast ball.

Vinny and Ila - How cute are these two?

Ashlynn got some good cuddle time with her soon to be new cousin

Ila got a little practice at being a big sister





On the way home we drove through Klamath Falls for a nice visit with my Grandparents. Grandpa even gave us potato chips to put on our sandwiches.
