The Rest of February

We had a great weekend trip over President's Day weekend to see the Spruce Goose in McMinnville, Oregon. It was the first museum Brad and I voluntarily spent 10 hours in. We feel like such grown ups. They had lots of stuff for kids to do, an IMAX theater and a whole space museum. They were working on turning an old 747 into a big water slide park with a resort to go with it. Can't wait to go back in a couple years when Ella's a little older.

It was a huge plane! Brad, Hal and Mike paid a little extra to be able to crawl around the inside and take as many pictures as they wanted.

Here's Brad sitting in the same seat Howard Hughes sat in.

Ella had fun riding her first planes.

The next day we headed to Tillimook, Oregon and toured the cheese and ice cream factory. mmmm...

We had great weather this weekend and it was nice to spend some time outside. Ella was invited to her first birthday party for her friend Esther where she received her first slinky as a party favor which has kept her entertained all weekend.
