Other Pendleton adventures with Fam

For some reason this post published before the next and when I tried to fix it, it didn't work. So...the following post is supposed to be after the one below, but oh well the pictures are still fun, just out of order.
For lunch we stopped by Abby's pizza (how cool is that, Pendleton has an Abby's?!). Luckily they had a back room that was empty and our party of 20 pretty much took care of that. We were right next to the arcade games, which the kids thought was pretty cool.

The nice staff brought out balloons for all the kids

Here's the adult table...enjoying our pizza:)


Lucy driving a pink car in a racing game


Carson and Uncle Adam shooting some wildlife.



Off to the Pendleton Woolen Mill. There's a quick tour and then there's a discount section in the warehouse and then the clothing/gift store...we reaked havock for a good 20 minutes trying everything out. (we also learned that it only runs on the week days- that's when we went before and it is WAY cool to see all the machines working! Keep that in mind when planning your visit to us. Come on, you know you are all dying for the chance to see just how they make those amazing blankets...right?)


Matthew, Wyatt, Hyrum and Carson tried on hats and rode around on these great stick horses.




aaahhhh, how about this one Mom?



Hannah, Lucy, Ella and Carson looking at all the gifty things.



Next Stop, Pioneer Park...one of the best city parks we've ever seen! No joke.



Lucy, Sterling, Hyrum and Carson playing on the curvy slide. At one time they got about 10 kids crammed up inside this slide...then Uncle Adam went up and scared them all!

Our red-headed cuties, Ella and Graham.

Hi Mandy! Cute pix. I love that we all have pretty much the same pix but different angels and perspectives. Thanks for letting us ALL invade your home. It was so fun. It reminded me of when everyone would come to our place in Helena for the 4th. Good times. I wish we could have stayed longer. Our kids loved playing with all the cousins. We were really sad to leave Oregon. Matthew cried all the way from Grampa's house to the airport and was still sad once we were inside and went through security. He perked up when Adam bought him a OSU tee. Thank heavens for gift shops!

Fun to see pics of the family. In case it has never been noted, you guys are all aware that Adam is a dead ringer for the singer Van Morrison, right? http://www.google.com/images?hl=en&source=imghp&biw=1030&bih=586&q=van+morrison&gbv=2&aq=f&aqi=g10&aql=&oq=&gs_rfai=
