In July (Shsh I'm only 3 months behind) we had the opportunity to go to Oregon for a week with my mom and my sister Nicki and her family. Grant had to work so he stayed home which was really sad, but we had a blast! My bro-in-law Mark was such a trooper being the only man with 3 women and 6 kids, but he was great. He had the trip all mapped out for us and made sure that we saw everything we possibly could along the way. He didn't want us to miss out on seeing any of the beautiful scenery. With two SUV's, six kids, and days in the car, it seemed to take us foreeeever to get there but it was so worth it when we did. 
The first big tree was saw in the Redwood Forest. Here is all the kids
The first big tree was saw in the Redwood Forest. Here is all the kids so excited to be out of the car for a minute.
You can see how big the tree is in this one.
Cute kids!
All of our crew heading into the Forest.
The "Big Tree"
Macie was such happy traveler.
Some strange tree slug that helps plant redwood seeds.
Sitting on the roots of a tipped over tree.
It felt like we were driving in a tunnel because the trees are so tall.
The happy driver.
Macie was by far the best traveler of the bunch. She hardly made a peep the whole way.
The kids did pretty good as long as we played musical cars
and gave them lots of snacks.
Brixton was such a good helper with Macie in the car. I was so glad to have

Brixton was such a good helper with Macie in the car. I was so glad to have her ride with us because she would feed her and help entertain her.
These crazy trees with moss growing up them. We were fascinated and had to get a pic.
A closer look at the moss.
Mark insisted we go see this National Park (I can't remember the name) which was a big giant mountain. The view from on top was amazing, you could see for miles.
Mark made Brixton and James hike down onto this cliff. The rest of us didn't dare to go.
