Vacation!

First of all…Vacation ROCKED!  We had such a blast with Tim and Allison, and huge props to my Dad for coming and watching Rohan.  I think they wore each other out equally...:)
Second of all, we will be missing our good friend Kim who deployed as a medic with his MP battalion unit to Qatar.  Rohan will be learning all about what Kim is doing while he’s away.

Before our vacation we were able to spend a night with Kim, and other friends, after he got back from California.  We hit up a Diamondbacks game as soon as he got back.  It was great to catch up with him before he left.  Kim also invited us to the sendoff for the battalion which was really a cool thing to witness.  Rohan was pretty silent, just taking everything in (as usual).  Kim even took Rohan on his shoulders while they had a battalion-only meeting.  The picture is awesome…J

We arrived in Portland just after Tim & Allison and hit up a brewery bus tour by BREWVANA.  What a great into to Portland!  We spent the rest of the week hitting up breweries, wineries and coffee shops.  To counteract all that we did some workouts at a practice field, 10+ miles of hiking, a trip to the coast, and a kayaking trip up & down the Colombia River Gorge.  So hard to put into words how much we accomplished, so the pictures will have to suffice…J  We got home around midnight and took Dad to the airport right away in the morning, so we spent most of Sunday relaxing by climbing and buying a kayak on Craigslist.  We’ve been wanting one for a while and the kayaking in Portland reminded us how much we enjoyed it!
