ROAD TRIP...

We took a quick road trip to Eugene over the 4th to visit with Ben's good buddy Quinn. The weather was steamy and the sun blazing. We hit up the Eugene rodeo, the Olivier's pool, played with ALL of Quinn's toys, and had a fun evening stint at the Eugene Art in the Vineyard event, before hitting the road to head back home the night of the 4th. Ahhh... road trip- see the view from above.The boys chillin' poolside.
"Acting" like good little boys and delivering hand picked flowers to Aunt Lanny.
Ben introducing Quinn to his obsession with all things Thomas
Tandem tub time for the grubby monkeys Strumming Uncle Steve's banjo- warming us up for the rodeo... loved this thing!
Hanging at the rodeo eating a corn dog, of course (the rodeo was a lot of fun by the way... the monster trucks are ridiculous, and poor Ben jumped about 10 feet when they revved their engines).
Quinn-man getting a better view of the bull-riders from Uncle Kyle
Let the giggling/tickling/wrestling/shoving/rough-housing begin...
Hmmm... I can catch him when he least expects it!
This was the energy level at the rodeo! Yeehaw- someone had a blast!
Fishing for treats at the Art Fair....
Who knew kazoos were in season at the fishing pond!?
I was finally able to tackle these two tireless monsters at the Eugene Magazine booth.
A great visit with the Olivier's- always a treat to see the boys growing together. If we dare, our next venture will be camping.
