OUR TRIP TO SUNRIVER When we got there we immediately hit up the pool area.  It was so nice to get some sun and to just be in a warm place.  At the pool they had two slides one was a tube slide and the other you just went down.  Well while going down I lost one of my big diamond earnings that I loved so we tried looking for it on the slide.  We could not find it.  The last person to come down of our group was Michael's dad, Dave.  He started to help us look an low and behold he found it in the water!! We were impressed that he could see that, but it did make me very happy! Soaking up the sun! Sunriver was so pretty.

For his birthday I surprised him with a camping trip to Table Rock Mountain.  I invited Cooper and Jen Trost to join us on the trip and hike.  We had a lot of fun and the hike was challenging for not doing any hikes prier, but it was so worth it.  Oh and not to forget freezing cold at the top, we could only stay up there for like 5min and then had to head back down.  So worth it though.  We all had a blast.  Men will be boys!

We made it!! Next was a camping trip with my family to Lake Palisades. We camped at a camp ground right under the dam. At th
