Jayden's Visit to Oregon summer 07

We really enjoyed our time with Jayden when he was able to visit and stay with Granddad and Grandma for two weeks this summer. I went down to Bakersfield and picked him up and we drove home. I was thinking the drive would be too much for a three year old for one day and was planning on stopping for a night. But he was having fun in the truck driving through the "forest" and pretending that wild animals were after us and he was protecting his Grandma by shooting the wild animals. But first he would have to listen to the animal sounds and decide if it was a dangerous animal before he would shot. He was very innertaining for me on our drive home and we did it all in one shot. While he was he we did whatever he wanted to do that day. We went to the paddleboats a lot and he really enjoyed driving around the waverly lake here in Albany. We went out to ice cream at Dairy Queen and he wanted a big sundae like he saw in the window ad so that is what Grandma ordered him. He was sure happy to have that much ice cream. Of course he didn't eat that much but he was extremely happy to get it anyway. We spent some time at the coast in the rv over in Newport and he loved playing in the sand and the water. He was so much fun to watch. Granddad and I just sat down and watched him play with smiles on our faces and in our hearts. It was such a relaxing way to spend the day and watching Jayden play was so much fun for us!! He is such a blessing in our lives and we enjoyed our summer with him!! After looking at these pictures even someone that isn't his Grandma would have to say he is cute!!
