Josh & I just returned from a quick trip to Sun River, Oregon with his work. (Discount Tire - shamless plug, YES call him, call me for a deal - seriously!!) Each year they take all the managers and wives from the region somewhere fun for some R & R. This is our second year to Sun River, we opted to fly this time, opposed to the 7 hour drive each way we made last year. I DO NOT have fond memories of that drive and it may or may not have to do with the fact that I was 6 months pregnant at the time. :) All in all it was a nice time. I was a little nervous as this was my first time away from either of the boys for more than 1 night and I had yet to leave Greyson overnight. Of course we missed them terribly, but I'm pretty sure they were unaware of our absence given the fun and love they were surrounded by with my family.
When we arrived on Sunday it was beautiful and 75 degrees. Josh golfed, I enjoyed the spa...all on Discount Tire..woohoo!!! I even got to sleep into 9:30, I felt like I was waking from a coma. Then just as if God was shaking us back to reality and reminding us where we really lived, we woke to some snow flurries & strong wind this morning. I really must have missed some months along the way, am I that tired?? I'm certain it's June 10th, correct me if I'm wrong but this IS Summer??
How beautiful is Mt. Rainer, I felt like we could reach out and touch it. 
It was amazing to see. I was so excited I got to use my new camera to snap for awesome shots.
Which then got us both thinking, do we always see Rainer when we fly, just don't really 'see' it? As we wrangle kids and make sure everyone is happy & entertained.
Josh & I were recalling the last time we flew alone...several years ago. It sure was fun to enjoy the view, actually talk to each other and not sweat for 45 minutes!
I don't know why, but I thought to take this pic and I really love it. It a bit deceiving to you all, as the propellers were moving so fast while in the air you could not see the blades, but with my new cool camera you can...I thought it was a fun photo!
