We have totally enjoyed living in Oregon for many reasons. One is green. The color green here is not an accent color...it is everywhere!! Another reason is the coast/Tillamook Cheese Factory. Both are so fun to visit.
One of the best reasons we love it here is the fact that we live only 5 hours away from our favorite Grandparents that really aren't our Grandparents. Dave and Marcia Zachies lived in Moberly, MO for many years and my mother -in-law Jackie and Marcia are the bestest of friends. Marcia practically raised Scott's little sister Jenny and has been a big part of the Jorgensen's lives. They are Grandparents to our kids and that's that!
Everyone should make an effort to visit them. Everytime we come we are treated like royalty. Shrimp cocktails, fresh homemade mac-n-cheese (not from a box), and the kids love it here. They even have a neighbors cat that comes by for visits so the kids can play and pet.
We went down to Medford for Thanksgiving/Mitchell's birthday this year. It was so fun!

I love this picture of Marcia and her method of keeping Rylee from falling off the counter. Nice stretch for a Gramma!!
Chase loves Marcia so much he thinks she's a bed!
Marcia and Rylee are the best of friends. Rylee prefers her over her own mother!!
Mitch got some Tinker Toys for his birthday and he spent all Thanksgiving Day/his birthday creating this cool race car!
Dave got himself a new DVD player...he spent the whole day putting his toy together too!
Mitch left his Rescue Hero jet alone long enough for Rylee to have a turn

She loves his fluffy softness
