Memorial Day

Didn't do anything real eventful today for the holiday. Just some chores outside, a little house cleaning inside.

In the afternoon we decided to take a drive out towards camas river road. Eventually we would love to live out that way.

Afterwards we stopped off at the park and let the kids run around. Dalan is trying to learn how to swing himself, he is getting it down pretty good until he gets to tired, which actually happens pretty quick in his world.

After that Laura watched the kids and Aron and I went out to eat at Henry's in downtown Portland. We love to get away even if it is for an hour or two just to spend some alone time together. Were so thankful for Aron's mom and her babysitting services to us!

Here are a couple pics Aron shot of the kids while he was working outside.
