Roadtrippin' to Oregon

We took the kids on their first official roadtrip this summer. We made the 2 day trip to Portland to visit my parents, brother and my extended family. We were nervous about the carride with the boys but it went pretty well. It was by no means perfect but with the assistance of the dual screen dvd player and the abundance of livestock and trains by the side of the freeway meant for some diversions in the monotony of a 20 hour drive. My parents live in Banks, OR on a 400 acre ranch and the kids were in heaven from the moment we arrived. They could run and have adventures. We got to see my entire extended family in Oregon and the boys met some cousins the same age as they are. We had a blast and we can't wait to make the trip again!
