3,200 miles later...

....we arrived home after seeing family in Utah, Washington, and Oregon. Here is a little photo journal of our whirlwind tour.

Logan, Utah where Ryan's sister and husband, Erika & Jim, have recently moved.

Next stop...Selah, Washington to see Ryan's parents. We made it in time to celebrate Mother's Day.

We finally used a wedding gift to stay overnight at the Edgefield McMenamins in Troutdale, Oregon. It's a historic site built around 1911 that has been converted into hotel, restuarant, movie theater, spa, gardens, etc. It's full of Portland ambiance making it a great way to enjoy a city that we're both fond of.

I had no idea this is how asperagus grows.

And then we were on to see Steph's family in Oregon City.

Erika, Austin, Steph (looking overly excited), and Forrest.

At 12-years old, Forrest is almost the same height as Ryan.

I don't think Steph's mom was ready for this picture to be taken.

Sisters!

Ryan's brother & wife, TJ & Michelle, live in Portland.

Brothers!

There is some debate as to the accuracy of this odometer reading, but either way, the Jetta has yet again made it to and from Washington...probably a miracle considering how many of it's miles have been spent on rough Tijuana roads. Either way, we're grateful.
